All our trainers are working coaches and we teach you the least you need to know to be able to coach well.  \nIn 2020\, the material drawn on to support the delivery of this programme was published by McGraw Hill as ‘Simplifying Coaching’ and is recognised around the world as a core text for coaching at work and coaching professionals.  \nWhat previous participants say  \n“It doesn’t have to be perfect. It doesn’t have to be an all or nothing thing. It’s an incremental approach and [you] can start to introduce the coaching approach into your conversations in lots of different ways. And it doesn’t have to be that that whole conversation is a coaching one\, but that you are using elements of what we are learning. It’s part of our toolkit now and making us think differently about how we might have some of our conversations.”   \n“This course seemed unique in its focus on simplicity and practice\, with regular feedback – instead of coming out of it thinking with practice this will be really useful\, but then forgetting to practice to embed it. I am already using it and it is becoming second nature to me.”  \n“Definitely do less. To achieve more. Because it doesn’t make you a worse manager. It actually makes you a better manager”  \nListen to how physio Ben Jeeves is using a coaching style in his work with patients.  \nJoining the Building a Coaching Culture programme – What you need to know  \n\nCoaching is simply a conversation where someone feels heard and gets new insights into their own stuff. This makes a coaching style useful in many different kinds of conversations. \nWe are developing and refining skills. This is experiential learning. There is no back row. \nEveryone will give and receive coaching up to 8 times in small groups – so you will need to come ready to learn\, think your own things through and contribute to the learning of others. \nYou will need to be fully present and able to fully focus in every session – cameras on \n\n\nThis way of working can feel very weird. 95% of people get it by the end of the course and for some it is a steeper learning curve and a much more rewarding journey than they were anticipating. \nThere is no written work or reading. You will need to watch a video between each live session. This is a core part of the learning. You can access the learning portal through your smartphone\, tablet\, work or home computer – or a combination. \nIf 3D wonder by the end of the programme if this way of working is for you\, we will talk to you about that. \nThere is no expectation from 3D that you will become a coach. Many people don’t. They just have better conversations as part of a more collaborative culture in the organisation. If you want to become a coach\, this is the first step! \nAttendance certificates will only be issued for delegates who have completed the whole course and watched all the videos. \n\n\nTo support ongoing development of Leadership Academy offers\, we ask that as part of your participation in this programme\, you engage with our course evaluation.

The goal is to help you think through a strategy for dealing with your project in its broader context of often-competing initiatives\, perspectives\, expectations\, and politics. \n“I valued the advise on how to approach bringing people together who historically have worked in silo organisations” \n“I valued the helpful tools and construct to support delivery of complex transformation across very diverse organisation boundaries” \nParticipant feedback from the 2021-2022 System Convening Masterclass \nBackground \nMany people nowadays find themselves leading initiatives that seem more complex than they used to be. Circumstances quickly change\, people’s stances on different sides of traditional boundaries are deepening\, expectations of results are speeding up. We call the kind of people who take on these challenges systems conveners. \nThe workshop engages participants in a reflection on their work from a systems-convening perspective. This entails understanding the mindset that systems conveners bring to their project as well as the various dimensions of the work of systems convening. \nOutcomes\n\nAn understanding of the systems convening perspective\nA wider range of possibilities for taking a systems convening approach to move initiatives forward\nSpecific examples of how to do this work\n\nStructure of the session\nIn this session we invite you to think through an approach for thinking about and taking action in the more complex environment we find ourselves in. We’ll include a reflection at four levels: \n\nToday. The complex landscape we find ourselves in today\nA new approach. A systems convening perspective (compared with a more traditional approach)\nLanguage for action. A language to frame this systems convening perspective in actionable ways\nDoing the work.

Their pioneering work in social learning is influential in such diverse fields as learning theory\, business\, government\, international development\, healthcare\, and education. Their consulting practice specializes in contexts where there are large-scale social learning challenges. They founded the Social Learning Lab\, where they host series of events oriented to theory\, practice\, and leadership. The co-edited volume Learning in landscapes of practice expands the theory beyond single communities. Systems convening sheds light on a crucial form of social-learning leadership. They are preparing a guidebook for communities of practice. They have started a book series called Learning to make a difference and recently published the first volume. It introduces the concept of social learning space as a new foundation for the theory\, and their value-creation framework as a tool for both conceptualizing and cultivating social learning.
