People Deliver Change
A unique one-day experiential event for anyone leading change or going through change themselves
|
Guided by our team of change specialists and professional actors, you will learn about the people challenge of delivering change, practice real change conversations, and debate the issues with peers from project organisations.
The Learning Agenda
We will tackle the process AND people-side of change, in tandem:
> Building a stakeholder coalition, that will get behind the change programme
> Engaging in good politics, which puts the power in your organisation to good work
> A meaningful vision of the future, communicating change in a way that will be heard
> Understanding and embracing resistance to change, and turn it in to a force for progress
> Understand how in every conversation you can nudge your change agenda forwards
> Building a network of trusted relationships, which carry your project through to delivery
|
The Experiential Format
Our facilitators and professional actors will bring the content to life in the form of an improvised project scenario. This will be a story which is shaped by the participants, and the characters in the story, and the participants learn from the experience unfolding during the day. By giving you, the audience, control of the action, we hope to engage everybody in a valuable and enjoyable event.

Introducing the scenario:
OPAQUE
|
|
One year into his new role at OPAQUE, Alec Edwards finds himself pushing water uphill. Brought in with a proven reputation as a results-focused Change Project Manager, Alec has found it harder than he anticipated. Seeking to make an impact, he introduced robust project management approaches for the first time at OPAQUE, put an integrated project team together, and set about making a real difference.
|
|
Encouraged by his Change Director to 'set a new standard', Alec found reality was more difficult: Sponsorship was not as 'effective' as he had been used to, stakeholders had disparate agendas, clinging to control, and his own delivery team seemed more like victims than the agents of change. Now, most troublesome are his divisional customers; the very people he is trying to improve things for, who seem to be blaming Alec for what is going wrong. As he reflects on the faltering implementation of his flagship project, Alec starts to see that he still has much to learn about leading people through change.
