The Seven Questions of Change

WHY? – Why is this particular Change necessary?
WIIFM? (What’s in it for me) – If we don’t address this? They listen to nothing else.
MONDAY? – What exactly will we be doing differently tomorrow?
WON’T? – What won’t Change?
MIGHT? – What might go wrong, and what are our plans to mitigate that?
WILL? – What will be difficult and what will we do to make that easier?
SIGNPOSTS? - Where are we?

Change from many perspectives

I have written 100s of articles on Change - While I have a 'key' talk? ALL my presentations are tailored to needs of the client AND of the audience.

So? I could list several dozen 'keynotes', but the key idea is this - I tailor my talks to meet your needs.

Change Management
Full day
(View workshop agenda)

Again? I have no canned 'workshops' - all presentations, webinars, workshops are tailored to the issues at hand. Let's discuss the needs, before I send along outlines for further discussion and approval

Problem Solving, Creativity
Full day
(View workshop agenda)

As per the Change Workshop? Outlines only make sense once we've discussed needs and outcomes.
