Masterclasses
A perfect PD day, or a few PD hours, for your Change team
Core curriculum
Despite overwhelming evidence that it works, many change professionals feel they’re continually justifying their existence. Learn to commercialise and articulate your worth so that there’s always a seat for you at the table.
Boost your credibility with executives by making recommendations and decisions based on data, not gut feel.
It may not be in your job description, but facilitation is an essential skill for change professionals. Learn a few essentials to overcome imposter syndrome or your own resistance – so you can facilitate (almost) anything.
If left unchecked, resistance will threaten the success of your implementation. Learn to identify and coach people (including yourself!) through these very normal human reactions.
Another one that may not be in your job description, but it’s one of the most powerful things you can do. It can also be the most scary. Let us help you build your confidence.
Influencing at work is an essential part of what we do, but it’s a learned skill that doesn’t come naturally to most of us. Let us help you practice influencing for change success.
Electives
Learn the basics of this complementary discipline so that you can work as a true partner to a project manager. This will also help if you become a de facto project manager for a change initiative.
Lack of accountability leads to low morale, unclear priorities and ineffective execution. In other words, it can sink your change. Let’s talk about what you can do about it.
A lot happens in meetings that can’t be replaced with email – and a lot of time is wasted too. Learn to plan and run meetings that make people glad they turned up.
Change communications are often too high level to be meaningful or overwhelming with detail. Learn how to plan, craft, deliver and test communications that get people to pay attention.
Agile and PCI® are a match made in heaven: iterative, all about testing and learning, and empowering people to drive change. Learn how to map PCI® to a typical Agile sprint cycle so that you can speak with authority and confidently plan your change.
Bespoke
We can design a program 100% to your change situation and goals
Maybe you’re:
- Embarking on transformation, and you’d like your executives to understand their role better and plan specific change leadership actions
- Restructuring, and you’d like a toolkit to help your leaders implement a new way of working and manage their own transition (delivered via webinar with follow-up coaching support)
- Supporting your change agents and executives to work together better – so you need a 90-minute masterclass that brings everyone together and allows them to practice contracting in a safe environment
Or, tell us what you need, and we can brainstorm together.
Any bespoke program can use PCI® or be methodology-agnostic.
