SUMMARY:Commonwealth Payroll & HR Webinar: Communicating Change Without Getting Thrown Under the Bus
DESCRIPTION:When new policies or procedures are introduced\, even the best intentions can lead to confusion\, misalignment\, and workplace tension. \n\nIn an effort to avoid conflict\, middle managers sometimes distance themselves from change by framing it as a "leadership decision." While well-meaning\, this approach can unintentionally create an "us vs. them" dynamic\, damaging trust\, increasing resistance\, and straining workplace relationships. \n\nIf this sounds familiar\, this webinar is for you.\n\nJoin us on Wednesday\, March 25\, 2026\, at 1:00 PM ET for an insightful and practical discussion with Dan Kaplan\, Founder of Confident Communicators\, LLC\, and learn how to communicate change in a way that builds alignment instead of friction. \n\nWhat We'll Cover:\n\n\n	Why triangulation happens during change\, and why it's usually unintentional \n\n\n\n	The critical role managers play in reinforcing (or undermining) HR messages \n\n\n\n	A simple communication process HR can use before change is announced to reduce resistance and prevent being "thrown under the bus" \n\n\nWhat You'll Walk Away With:\n\n\n	Strategies to prepare managers to deliver aligned\, confident messages \n\n\n\n	Tools to reduce "us vs. them" dynamics during times of change \n\n\n\n	Techniques to help employees re-orient faster and return to productivity \n	Insights into how DiSC  helps you understand how different styles respond to change and uncertainty\, so you can frame messages that reduce fear\, build buy-in\, and increase consistency across the organization \n\n\nGuest Panelist: Dan Kaplan | Founder\, Confident Communicators\, LLC
