Managing Change When You’re Change Averse

The IOFM Podcast

When Arecka Mather, APM, had to manage her team through a system conversion, she was particularly challenged. As a person who herself struggles with change, her leadership was essential to the success of the project, but she needed to overcome her own anxiety while getting everyone else on board as well.

In this podcast, Arecka talks about her experiences with IOFM Managing Editor Royce Grayson Morse, discussing the obstacles and day-to-day setbacks she and her team encountered during the process, and offering tips for others in similar situations. Maintaining her composure, being brave enough to ask lots of questions, working closely with her crew and being honest about her own challenges were key. Ultimately, teamwork and the ability to laugh throughout the journey brought her organization through a successful transition.

Listen to the podcast now to find out more about managing change when it’s not only tough for the team, but for you as well.
