Develop your business
Develop yourself
It has been said that there is nothing permanent but change. To move in a new direction, you need to step back and gain the knowledge and tools that will equip you for the challenge of leading change.
Many change initiatives fail by not adequately appreciating or understanding the role of human behaviour in organisational performance and change. This programme teaches you to do the opposite, helping you delve into the heart of the basic drivers of human behaviour and learn to identify and manage the hidden dynamics of teams and organisations.
Consulting and Coaching for Change is an intense and powerful diploma programme. It is specifically designed for those leading change directly or those advising key people in an organisation regarding change. It provides participants with a clinical framework for understanding how individual and organisational behaviour affects change initiatives. Moreover, it significantly broadens their behavioural repertoire and understanding of individual psychological structures.
On an individual level, the insights and clarity gained from the programme will greatly increase your ability to manage the people issues that affect business performance. By being able to ensure a fit between people, the organisation and corporate goals, you will make a significant contribution to developing business. In the process, by transforming yourself into a reflective and powerful agent of change, you will greatly develop yourself.

Consulting and Coaching for Change goes to the heart of human relations, drawing on insights from a broad range of disciplines ranging from psychoanalytic psychology to cognitive theory. These are then integrated into a clinical approach and applied to management theory. Because human behaviour touches on a broad range of personal, emotional and cultural assumptions, both time and reflection are necessary in order to gain clarity and a solid understanding of the issues. The programme is thus profoundly reflective and care is taken to create a safe transitional space that provides you with both a tool for implementing change and an extremely valuable opportunity to step back and gain perspective.
Reflect and expand
During the programme, you will be immersed in the change phenomenon and will be encouraged to reflect on your own behaviour and on your interaction with others. From the very beginning, you engage in peer coaching with your working teams of six fellow participants (the total group size is of around 36). Linking each module is a case paper which provides you with the opportunity to explore how your new knowledge, awareness, and tools can be applied to your work setting. The personal feedback you receive from faculty and your team contributes to the process of developing and fine-tuning your skills.
Explore
A large part of the programme is comprised of extensive personal exploration, lectures, consulting and coaching. Unlike most executive education programmes, Consulting and Coaching for Change is not focussed on outside case studies, drawing instead largely on the wealth of experience in the participant group. This, of course, is highly confidential and the classroom is designed as a safe space in which participants can engage in idea experimentation and expansion. In this, you may find that while expecting the programme to teach you about others, in fact, you learn a great deal about yourself as well.
