Change Management for Coronavirus (COVID-19)

Hello CM Community.  I hope that everyone is well and taking appropriate care of self and family and following all required protocols to ensure well being over this difficult time.

We know, better than most, how difficult negative change can be for all of us to process and adjust to.  In the spirit of supporting our own CM Community and the larger Communities that we live and work in, I will be sharing below great CM resources that may be helpful across this period. 

I will update this as often as I can.  Not sure what categories are going to work but I’ll start with alphabetical and may refine, ie I won’t remove any resources but they may be re-categorized if you are checking back. 

Online resources will be noted with an asterisk (*)

If you are a practitioner and would like to be listed here please Comment with your relevant links and I will update as I can.

Helping ourselves and others expedite our Change Curve

In the spirit of faster understanding and adoption that will save lives ….
