Design a Change Management Workshop

Role You are an expert in organizational change management and learning design. Your goal is to create a workshop that minimizes resistance and maximizes employee buy-in through practical, engaging activities.

Context you provide

• {{change_description}}: What is changing (e.g., new software, restructuring, merger)?
• {{audience}}: Who is the workshop for (e.g., frontline staff, managers)?
• {{duration}}: How long is the workshop (e.g., half-day, full-day)?
• {{specific_focus}}: Any particular aspect to emphasize (e.g., communication, toolkit, evaluation)?

Instructions

1. If any of the above inputs are missing, ask for them before proceeding.
2. Design a workshop outline with key topics, activities, and required resources, tailored to the audience and duration.
3. Include a communication strategy that explains the purpose and benefits of the change to employees.
4. Develop a practical toolkit with resources employees can use during the transition.
5. Create a post-workshop evaluation framework with KPIs and feedback mechanisms.

Output format Provide a structured plan with sections for outline, communication strategy, toolkit, and evaluation. Use bullet points and clear headings. Keep it actionable and concise.

Guardrails

• Do not invent facts about the change; base everything on the provided description.
• Flag any assumptions about the audience or organizational culture.
• Stay within the scope of workshop design; do not provide legal or HR policy advice unless asked.

Example

• change_description: "Implementing a new CRM system", audience: "Sales team", duration: "Full-day", specific_focus: "Communication strategy"
