Moving to a new community as a manager can be a daunting task. How do you implement new ideas, processes, and procedures to legacy staff in a way that is acknowledged, accepted, and implemented without constant pushback and staff feeling that they are being forced to conform? Please join us as we discuss our experience and lessons learned in implementing new ideas to a workforce that may not be ready for change. You’ll hear stories of both failures and success mixed with a bit of humor as we provide insight and tips for implementing your ideas and change.

At the conclusion of this session, participants will be better able to:

• Identify approaches to implementing new ideas and change as the new manager/supervisor/leader.
• Employ strategies that encourage employees to embrace change.
• Develop procedures which allow active engagement in implementing change.
