Succeed with your change initiative from early on. See many real case examples that explain how to use the tools and steps you need. Learn from 25 years of international change management on all continents.

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:

  • save precious time, use it well to succeed with your change
  • save scarce resources and keep motivation high so your teams pulls it off together
  • get many stakeholders on board your change including pessimists and critics
  • connect the right dots to draft your change story so it becomes convincing to many
  • take home the tool set and process steps that are critical especially in the early phases

If you have already left the early stages you can use this course to reflect how difficulties you're experiencing might be connected to the success factors that go back to the early stages of change.
