"But I do understand how some staff could feel threatened by changes to their work place and daily routines. In this regard, directorate officers have a special role to play in leading their division forward and counselling their staff who may have difficulties adjusting to change," Miss Chung said.
The seminar - divided into three sessions - is organised for about 120 heads of divisions and sections as well as principals of Government secondary and primary schools.
The seminar is aimed to help senior and middle managers of the department to understand the organisational behaviour during such changes and, more importantly, to enable them to counsel and support their subordinates who may be apprehensive in the face of changes.

AFD staff urged to keep up good efforts
The Director of Agriculture and Fisheries, Dr Lawrence Lee, has urged his staff to keep up their good efforts so as to make the department highly efficient.
Dr Lee made the appeal when addressing the Agriculture and Fisheries Department's (AFD) annual presentation ceremony held at its headquarters this (Monday) morning.
He hoped all AFD colleagues would continue their good work to achieve the goal of making greater development in the various objectives of the department.
At today's ceremony, Dr Lee presented awards to outstanding staff who had done well in the department's performance pledge competition.
The best performance pledge award went to the Livestock Regulatory Section, whereas the Fauna Conservation Section and the Plant and Pesticide Regulatory Section emerged as first and second runners-up in the competition.
