Gestire il cambiamento (POK)

Offered by Politecnico di Milano,
Gestire il cambiamento (POK)

Quanti cambiamenti hai già affrontato nella tua vita? Li hai accolti come un’opportunità o ti sei sentito in difficoltà? Vediamo come affrontarli al meglio nel privato e sul lavoro.
How many changes did you face in your life? Did you take them as an opportunity or did you find yourself under difficult circumstances? Let’s see how to better face them in private and on the job.

L’unica costante nella nostra vita è il cambiamento. A volte siamo noi a decidere consapevolmente di dare una svolta alla nostra vita (ad es. quando cambiamo lavoro, o quando traslochiamo in una nuova città); altre volte è il contesto che cambia attorno a noi e ci costringe ad adeguarci alle nuove condizioni.

A volte il cambiamento costituisce un momento di gioia e di curiosità per la novità, a volte rappresenta un momento di dolore e di lutto per ciò che dobbiamo lasciarci alle spalle. A volte il cambiamento è evidente, profondo e irreversibile, a volte si svolge in modo più sottile, attraverso un processo lungo ed inesorabile. Ma in qualsiasi situazione, il cambiamento rappresenta la fine di uno stato e l’inizio di un altro stato. Il cambiamento spesso significa abbandonare vecchie consuetudini e sicurezze per aprirsi a novità finora inesplorate. Ogni apprendimento nella nostra vita si basa su questo concetto: solo grazie al coraggio e alla volontà di uscire dalla propria zone of comfort, si possono apprendere nuove capacità e competenze. Non è il cambiamento in sé che ci spaventa, ma l’idea che ci creiamo dello stesso. Ci affrettiamo ad etichettare la nuova situazione come fortuna o sfortuna, ma è la nostra interpretazione soggettiva dei fatti che impatterà di seguito su come vivremo il momento del cambiamento. Quante volte ci è già successo di piangere di fronte ad una porta che si chiudeva davanti a noi, senza badare al portone che si stava aprendo altrove? In questo corso conoscerai le principali dinamiche legate ai singoli momenti di un cambiamento, sia personale che professionale. Conoscendo le dinamiche, ti sarà più facile essere consapevole delle emotività (proprie e altrui) che ogni cambiamento suscita. Imparerai ad affrontare le resistenze con maggiore efficacia e a sviluppare competenze specifiche per gestire il processo del cambiamento con una maggiore consapevolezza e sicurezza interiore.

In the expression “creative thinking”, the keyword is not creativity; the keyword is thinking. With the help of great philosophers, you will rediscover the art of thinking. To help leaders to be rigorous even without figures, great philosophers have lots of ideas. Managers are invited to rediscover the art of thinking. They should understand the role of mental models, realize the importance of cognitive bias, agree on clear definitions and efficient criteria etc. Creativity demands the ability to unshackle ourselves from conventional ways of thinking, to "think outside the box".
