Leading People Through AI, Automation & Organisational Change

Automation and AI are transforming the recruitment sector at an unprecedented pace.
But technology alone does not deliver transformation.

The businesses that succeed are those that can lead people confidently through change — maintaining performance, trust and engagement while ways of working fundamentally shift.

Change for Transformation is a practical, management-focused course developed by APSCo to equip recruitment managers with the change management skills required to turn disruption into sustainable progress.

This programme recognises a critical truth:
change leadership is as essential to transformation as the technology you choose.

Key Takeaways

  • Lead people confidently through AI-driven change
  • Manage resistance while protecting performance
  • Communicate change with clarity and credibility
  • Build practical, people-centred change roadmap
  • Embed new ways of working sustainably
