Cultural Change (James McCalman)

Culture, James McCalman, Leadership, Power, Trust, Workshops

Client organisations and individuals will be introduced to some of the important themes associated with leading cultural change in a dynamic organisation. Our objective is to raise the awareness of key issues related to leading cultural change and to introduce participants to some key concepts and analytical methods. The learning approach involves Behavioural Science; MBA analytical models; and NLP interventions. The aim is to engage in a learning process that connects theory with practice in an action learning setting. Ultimately, we aspire to provide a foundation from which participants can prepare to operate with impact as successful cultural change champions for their respective organisations.

Critical insights into the operating culture of client organisations and the various ways that established cultural themes either block or enable successful strategic change are explored. It is important to stress that the findings and recommended interventions are a direct product of the participants creative reflections as they engage with the analytical processes facilitated.

Build trust through the ancient art of juggling! (Yannis Angelis)

So, a merger or an acquisition has taken place

… or you are assigned to conduct a new project team which involves various competences and mindsets and you find yourself struggling because

… in this novel situation, you and your teams need to work with new people that you don’t know, coming from a different personal and organizational culture. Moreover, you may have even been competitors just some months ago. So how can you make sure that you can, as soon as possible, create a collaborative field of trust in such a complex environment where things seem to be a bit chaotic?

The ancient art of juggling in its principal is a continuous attempt to bring a kind of stability to chaos. Juggling is not so difficult as it appears to be and participants in this workshop will learn to juggle 3 balls in a clear time of 30 minutes! Even if juggling is considered to be an individual art, they will have the opportunity to juggle together. The whole process combines both physical and social interactions, which are essential for creating connection and initiating trust. Juggling introduces a self-trusting attitude, a kind of “I can learn anything I wish to”. Most importantly for participants, by increasing their self-confidence, they will feel more trustful and will shine out more trustworthy.

“Yes and..” Applied Improvisation for an Empathy Revolution. (Charo Lanao)

Activism, Charo Lanao, Collaboration, Courage, Culture, Leadership, Self-Improvement, Trust, Workshops

In this workshop, participants will be exposed to the basic principles and tools of applied improvisation and will be invited to use these principles and tools for personal development, team building, creativity, innovation and wellbeing. Applied improvisation argues that creativity happens collaboratively by using the principle of short turn taking between individuals in the group. Creating an atmosphere of positive purpose, everyone is encouraged to contribute. Fear, suspicion and anxiety are replaced with focus, creativity and sense of collaboration. This approach allows individuals, groups and organisations to release their creative potential. The exercises in applied improvisation encourage risk taking, playfulness and to be in the moment. Consequently participants will find that they are having fun whilst also developing or challenging their existing mind-set. It is a way to unlearn to give space for new learning. Learn to be flexible and explore multiple perspectives. Be at ease in an uncertain world and be resilient, compassionate and playful.
