Personality Driven Change Architecture

In today's dynamic business environment, the ability to manage change (a project) effectively is paramount for success. A crucial aspect that requires attention to ensure a successful transition is resistance. The prevailing view on resistance to change often places emphasis on external factors such as communication, trust, and leadership support. However, are these the only factors to consider when designing a change management strategy? This presentation challenges traditional change management views, revealing the interplay between personality traits and external factors in shaping responses to change. By recognizing the impact of individual differences on these responses, practitioners will be better equipped to lead and manage change effectively in today’s challenging business landscape.

FAQ

Where will the event be held?

Optional program and Official program will be held in Microsoft office. For Afterparty, we will move to Turnovská pivnice Brumlovka, which has the same address. Both places can be found under this location: Delta Building, Vyskočilova 1561/4a, 140 00 Praha 4.

How to get to the conference?

The easiest way to get there is by using the C metro and getting off at the Budějovická stop (this option also applies to passengers arriving by train at the main train station). From the metro stop, you can either walk to the Microsoft building in 15 minutes, or you can use the free shuttle bus BB1 operating on the route Budějovická (Olbrachtova Street) - Brumlovka - Delta.

The next closest bus stop is Vyskočilova, which is right opposite the Microsoft offices (bus 118 or 170).

We cannot provide parking in the Delta building and therefore encourage you to use public transport or taxis.

What if I arrive by car?

Unfortunately, we cannot provide free parking in the Delta building. In case you decide to arrive by car, you have following options:

- In the surroundings of the Budějovická metro station you can park in orange and purple zones for 20 or 30 CZK/hour. A little further on in Prague 4 you can park directly on the street for free - the location without paid parking zones starts below the level of Jižní spojka.

- Parking in the DBK shopping centre garage is free for the first hour, each additional hour costs CZK 50.

- Use of one of the public car parks in the Brumlovka zone. Aboveground public parking can be found on Za Brumlovkou and Želetavská Streets and by the Bethany Community Center. Non-stop underground parking is available in the buildings Brumlovka, Filadelfie, Delta a Building G.
