Why this course?

After 25 years of Change Management with leaders and companies around the world I'm still amazed how organizations keep making the same mistakes that have been causing change projects to fail. Why waste valuable time and resources? With the many examples cases, clear structure and learning from this practical course you can start into your change and get it right from the start. All it takes is 4 hours of self study with plenty of real cases, tools and assignments showing you how to lead your change from the very beginning.  

Who for?

I recommend this course to managers of all levels, to internal consultants, HR, change coaches, scrum and agile coaches that help leaders drive change. You can use the steps and tools directly with your team and implement them in your organization.

What to learn?

When starting on a marathon you want to make smart first steps to succeed in the long run. This course covers all important practical knowledge, steps, and tools that are crucial not only during the first phases of a change project but that impact how the later stages of your change will succeed. You will learn about a change leaders mindset and attitude, about the deep leverage that creates momentum and real connection and team work to focus your leadership team power on making your change happen.

How?

This course is structured into three main sections:

1. Intro - Reflect your reasons, attitude, mindset, timing, and starting position both as a change leader and for your organization as a whole - using models, self assessments and an example case.
2. Watch the detailed real Case Study of the Change Project from a car manufacturing OEM: Increase your awareness of the key steps to take serious. Learn from the successes and setbacks in other companies to take the right steps for your own change initiative.
3. Create the change readiness and team cohesion using the tools and examples to get your organization up and running to implement the change.

Your take away's and benefits:

To cut a long story short: You have a much better chance of succeeding following the stories, tools and tips from this course. Your benefit:
