What is the Practical Change Management course about?

Even with clear vision, professionals struggle to maintain alignment when innovation cycles shorten and priorities evolve. Traditional change models fall short when speed and experimentation are non-negotiable. Without a practical, adaptive framework, initiatives lose traction before they gain adoption.
