TRANSCRIPT

Adapting to change at work is important to stay productive and motivated. To succeed, we must be systematic. First, define the change clearly. We must understand the change and the reasons for it. Second, we must analyze how the change will affect our daily tasks. Will it make your job easier, or not? Third, we must create a plan. This includes steps to help us learn new tools or processes. If the change requires new skills, we must allocate time to acquire them. Once the change is implemented, we must evaluate our progress regularly. Sometimes, we may need to streamline processes to remove unnecessary steps. Finally, after a lot of time has passed, we must review the change and assess its impact. Has it improved our workflow? By continually adapting, we can make future changes easier to manage. (138 words)
