Systemic Transformation of Organisations Advanced Diploma
Maximise your potential and that of your organisation by becoming an accredited systemic change leader.
On completion of all 4 movements, participants present their project work and will be assessed for their Advanced Diploma Accreditation award, which is recognised as Advanced Professional Coach Training by the Association for Coaching and International Coach Federation and the International Coach Federation for 90 CCEUs.
The context for transforming organisations
Everywhere, rule books are being thrown away because they are no longer useful. We need to find better ways of working and creating new ideas, skills, and insights. We also need to create more meaningful connections within our roles so that we can deliver fairer results for all. To do this, we need to become better at understanding things that are unclear and working with complex situations. We also need to be able to collaborate openly and honestly as the barriers between organisations and hierarchies break down.
The diploma develops change leaders who can lead and facilitate deep transformation across systems, connecting individuals, teams and organisations with the eco-systems of which they are part, and repurposing their organisations to be fit for the future.
The Diploma Experience
The programme contains four progressive Movements of Energy creating a journey of transformation. Most participants aim to graduate within 18 months of starting and have a clear sense of how they will be applying their learning, however, some decide to take longer in order to fully digest their experience and fit in with other commitments
The programme requires time, energy and presence and will support and enable your day to day work-life rather than impinge on it. Think of this as your “Camino”, your learning and reflective practice for the times ahead. Whatever pace you choose, you will join a worldwide community of like minds who are keen to connect and share their experiences. Participants enjoy networking with people around the world from walks of life they may not usually meet.
