A successful alliance requires great partnerships and in our first module we will spend time getting to know each other and how we can enable eachothers success.
We will explore what “inspiration” means for this alliance and introduce you to Motivational Maps®, a tool which will build your ability to lead change.
We will also introduce you to a way of communicating a compelling reason for change that you will be able to apply immediately.

Emotions derail any change initiative.
Helping your people find their way and gain momentum can accelerate your change efforts.
In this module, we will firstly review your alliance's Team Motivational Map® and consider the impact of motivation and energy on successful change initiatives.
We will then look at the 6 predictable stages of change, and provide you with strategies you can apply to build your confidence, keep your balance, be more in control and inspire others to keep going.

2. Navigating the emotion and commotion of change
4. Rhythm, Energy, space and time.
“Change is exciting when done by us, but threatening when it’s done to us.” ~ Elisabeth Kübler-Ross.
Those who feel threatened by your change will stall progress.
The impact can range from increased cost to devaluing the huge investment in your change initiative.
In this module we look at the destructive power resistance has and explore strategies you can apply to deal with resistance, engage people, increase trust and inspire them to adapt & adopt change.
4. Rhythm, Energy, space and time.
5. Leading your vision, bridging the gaps
4. Rhythm, Energy, space and time.
Drawing inspiration form the arts in how we lead change.
Inspiring others is about actively involving them in your vision and enabling them to feel part of it.
Rhythm, Energy, Space and Time are key elements that artists and performers consider as critical to how they view the world, prepare for success, engage their audience and collaborate.
This module will focus on building awareness of these elements for increasing engagement, buy-in and commitment to change.
5. Leading your vision, bridging the gaps
5. Leading your vision, bridging the gaps
5. Leading your vision, bridging the gaps
Having a vision is great, but how can you ensure everything will go to plan?
The reality is, you can't as the world shifts around you, unexpected issues arise, and you spend time and money resolving them.
However, you can take steps to minimise these unexpected issues.
This module examines and demonstrates how you can actively and regulary gain early insight into what’s hampering progress and bridge the gap before it’s too late.
6. Celebrating Your Change Story
5. Leading your vision, bridging the gaps
5. Leading your vision, bridging the gaps
Celebrations are a globally recognised way of marking both endings and beginnings.
In our last module we will reflect on your journey and successes and revel in your accomplishments.
It’s a way to say “thank you” to those who've helped us and collectively show our pride in one another and in our relationship.
We will spend time sharing personal change journey's, goals and vision for the future and plan what this alliance needs for ongoing connection, support and collaboration.
