The OUBS is delighted to announce the latest event in the Business Perspectives series – a Change Management Masterclass.

This event will explore change implementation and how to navigate strategic change effectively for better individual and organisational performance.

You will leave this event equipped with new insight on how other organisations have implemented strategies for change management success, through academic presentations and expertise shared from practitioner leaders.
The masterclass will be led by David Wilson, Professor in Organisation Studies and Associate Dean for Research and Scholarship at The Open University Business School.

David will open the event and co-host a group session later in the day. Joining David will be the following

speakers:

  • Phil Smith, CEO of Cisco UK & Ireland

  • Dr Ben Hardy, Lecturer in Management at The Open University Business School.
