Inviting Vision:
Inviting Vision is similar to Agendashift and borrows from both Open Space and OpenSpace Agility. Inviting Vision is an engagement model that helps executives set up an initial and compelling but incomplete vision, and then sets up an invitation for the rest of the organization to complete it. Inviting Vision is a method to engage as many employees as possible in the change. From Darren Terrell and Diana Williams. Learn more here.
Open Space in Organizations:
This class teaches how to bring inspired, whole-group events into you wider enterprise-transformation program. Includes checklists for leadership prep, facilitator prep, physical-space prep, and how to conduct online Open Space events with hundreds in attendance. Learn more here.
Impact! Agendashift for Products and Services:
How to bring a strategic and outcome-oriented approach to the positioning and development of products and services. Agendashift sets up the “why” question, helps you develop a coherent strategy, and through its disciplined commitment to outcomes creates space for collaboration, self organization, innovation, and leadership. Highly recommended. Learn more here.
Acting As An Executive Coach:
For real change to occur, decision-makers must authorize it. But how will that authorization ever occur if we cannot reach and then teach executives? In this course you learn how to play the role of executive coach, effectively limiting your behavior and interactions in pursuit of real influence. This course covers topics as diverse as coach/client psychology, acting theory and more. Learn more here.
