What is expected of participants

To ensure a productive and impactful learning experience, participants are expected to:

  • Be at intermediate-level and above practitioner in change management: Participants need prior change management experience as well as people skills to work effectively with change stakeholders, ensuring a shared baseline of knowledge and experience among participants. This is not an introductory level program for recent graduates or people newly curious about change management.
  • Commit to active participation: Engage fully in all live training sessions, interactive discussions, and practical activities to gain the most value from the program.
  • Dedicate time outside of sessions: Plan to spend 1-2 hours between sessions for reflection, reviewing provided materials, and preparing thoughts to discuss with peers and facilitator.
  • Bring a current client or project context: For maximum benefit, participants should be actively working on a change initiative where they can apply insights from the program. If not, a side project or voluntary role is acceptable.
  • Be open to constructive feedback: Approach the program with a growth mindset, ready to learn from peers and facilitators and share your own experiences and insights in return.
  • Respect confidentiality: Maintain a supportive and professional environment by respecting the confidentiality of shared information about clients or sensitive organizational matters.

Who should attend

This program is designed for change professionals by bringing the key concepts and activities needed to educate knowledge workers – a broader group of which organizational change professionals are a part – with applied change management situations and challenges.

Participants benefit from the knowledge and skills that they acquire but also from hearing about and helping peers in how they are applying what they learn. Most of the cohorts are global, adding more richness to the conversation.

Note: This is not an introductory level program for recent graduates or people newly curious about change management.
