Approaches to Care for Leaders and Employees During High Periods of Change.
While continual change in organizations can create spaces of innovation and growth, it also naturally destabilizes the people infrastructure, increasing the risk of higher rates of friction, burnout, and uncertainty.
Furthermore, in today’s environment, complexity around change is amplified due to political, social, and economic forces. All of these factors directly impact the mental wellbeing of employees and can have a ripple effect within our organizations.
We have a pivotal opportunity to reimagine how change is planned for and implemented in today’s environment. By applying human-centered design and evidence-based approaches to wellbeing, leaders can design employee experiences that foster higher levels of resilience across individuals and teams.
This session will focus on the following objectives:
Join us to learn people-first approaches to change that strengthen wellbeing and build resilient teams.
Join us for a powerful 60‑minute member exclusive exploration into compassion‑centred leadership, and why the journey always begins with ourselves.
We’re delighted to host Steven Hargreaves, Author of The Compassionate Leader’s Playbook, and the Founder of The Compassionate Leadership Company. Steven is known for bringing humanity, honesty and practical insight into leadership conversations.
Steven will guide us through the essentials – what compassion really is (and how it differs from sympathy and empathy), why compassionate leadership is courageous leadership, and the difference between being nice and being truly compassionate.
We’ll explore fierce compassion, the contagious impact of compassionate cultures, and the importance of self‑compassion and energy management. Using The Emotional Culture Deck, participants will reflect on their emotional drivers and what it means to lead from a place of strength rather than depletion.
We’ll finish with a simple commitment: three actions each participant will take forward.
In this virtual session, guest speaker Kerrie Smit will explore the role of emotional coaching in change management, and why it matters just as much as process, plans and delivery.
Drawing on real-world experience, Kerrie will unpack how emotional coaching can help change practitioners and leaders better support people through uncertainty, resistance and fatigue.
The session will focus on practical ways to build emotional awareness, strengthen conversations, and create safer spaces for people to engage with change, rather than disengage from it.
This event is designed for anyone working in change, leadership or transformation who wants to deepen their impact by supporting the human side of change more effectively.
Welcome to the summary of our Futures of Change research initiative. This report provides a snapshot of what was explored and a summary of our high-level findings. This initiative was the first of its kind for the Change Management Institute. It invites us all to expand the lens through which we currently view change, and to open our minds to the alternatives and possibilities presented by the research.
The report invites you into a different kind of conversation. It’s not a forecast, a best-practice guide, or a roadmap for certainty. It’s a space for curiosity. A provocation. A shared inquiry into what change could become, and what change professionals, adjacent roles and next generation leaders might need to navigate what’s next.

Our new transformational Change Portfolio Management (CPM) training course will equip you with the essential skills and knowledge to apply CPM principles and techniques to drive successful change execution.
The course will introduce you to foundational concepts of CPM through discussions, interviews with experts, self-reflection, and group activities. The training is delivered over 4 consecutive half-days.
Great news: you can bundle purchasing the CPM Foundation Training Course and the CPM Advanced Training Course – just click on the register buttons to proceed.
Helped me to understand how to drive some of the harder conversations with decision making audiences, as well as giving that helicopter view needed to support those conversations vs getting too stuck in the detail of individual initiatives.
Very relevant content and I think it’s highly applicable too. I’m glad I’m investing myself to do this course now 🙂
Have already set up a meeting for my project director about how we manage change across a branch. Plus have shared the risks – they are gold! I will be adding to my LinkedIn and CV tonight!

Pre-requisites
This course assumes prior knowledge regarding change management concepts and change/project delivery language. Participants must:
I feel like I have the tools, theory and practical examples to take our CPM approach from infancy to adulthood (or at least teenager!) and be able to demonstrate the benefits of doing so to leadership and program delivery colleagues.
I particularly enjoyed the section on storytelling and creating that change narrative for the portfolio to inspire and refocus people.
The small group setting for this course was very helpful in enriching the discussion and building connections.
