Fear of Change Speakers

One of the most consistent things in business is change. Sometimes, you can see change coming, and other times, it is hard to predict. Many people are prone to fear or be wary of change.

Here are just a few speakers who offer their insights into why we fear change and how we can embrace it and navigate our way through it.

Dr Tammy Watchorn

Dr. Tammy Watchorn is known as the Change Ninja and is an Educator, Facilitator, Coach, Author, and keynote Speaker.

Tammy’s experiences of trying to lead transformational change in a complex environment that didn’t really want to change led to her first book, The Change Ninja Handbook. A gamified choose your own adventure book focusing on people and behaviours.

One of her speech topics is the “Fear of Change”

• Fear of change – Understanding the neuroscience, emotions and behaviours of change are key to successful delivery. Knowing how we feel and respond to change we don’t like can help us spot it in others. Combining this insight with Change Ninja tactics that focus on how we approach other people will help us to deliver effectively, efficiently and with a lot less pain.

Blaire Palmer

Future of Leadership expert and speaker, Blaire Palmer, draws on more than 20 years of experience challenging, provoking and guiding senior leaders as they try to figure out how their people and their organisations can thrive in these fast-changing times.  Our relationship with work is on the verge of a disruption the likes of which we haven’t seen since the industrial revolution. That means the expectations of our people, the environment which brings out their best, and even the role that business plays in the wider world is up for reinvention.

In her talk Busting the Myths of Change – Brilliant Gamble, Blaire explains how conventional wisdom about change leads to frustration, organisational tension, disengagement, and low levels of trust. In a world where we don’t trust authority figures (and with good reason), where Gen Z employees will not turn a blind eye to unethical or intolerant behaviour, where change fatigue set in many months or years ago, and where you are rarely in the same room as the people you work with, she explains how to create an environment where people become enthusiasts for change, taking responsibility for it themselves and acting as if the business was their own.
