Leading a team through change isn’t just about the strategy; it’s about understanding the emotions that come with it. Riders & Elephants design simple, human-focused systems that reimagine the way people can connect and grow.

The Emotional Culture Deck (ECD) will help you drive bottom-up change about what really matters by stimulating face-to-face conversations about culture and leadership.

In this virtual session hosted by the Tasmania and Canada Chapters, you will learn what ECD is and how you, as a Change Professional, can use it to manage change and reshape stakeholder experiences.

You can use this as part of human-centred design, creating personas and journey maps, in identifying and managing resistance and so much more. The simplicity of the deck helps teams open up and makes emotion a safe thing to talk about. And you don’t have to be certified to use ECD.

As organisations face accelerating change, adaptive leadership and agile practices are increasingly essential. How can change practitioners equip leaders and middle managers to succeed in these conditions, and in what ways is the demand for agility reshaping our change management practices?

The Change Learning Circle is a member only series centred on current thinking about critical topics in Change Management. 

The series features a panel of experienced change practitioners discussing a specific topic. The panel read a range of published material on a given topic and come together for a facilitated discussion on their insights.

SAGE (Science in Australia Gender Equity) is Australasia’s leading advocate for equity, diversity and inclusion (EDI) in the education and research sector.

In this member-exclusive Global Voices session, SAGE Director of Programs, Tamzen Armer, will outline why we need a more diverse and inclusive research workforce, and what SAGE has learned about ‘what works’ over the last 10 years.

SAGE’s world-respected Athena Swan accreditation program drives participants’ EDI evolution. Through an evidence-based and impact-focussed framework, each institution develops a uniquely customised approach to achieve systemic, structural and cultural change, measured against international benchmarks. Throughout that journey, they are supported with advice, tools and dynamic communities of practice to assist them when they need it.

For change to succeed, project sponsorship must be more than a name on a governance slide and individuals must feel like more than passengers on the journey.

Change is accelerating, and yet, many organisations still struggle with how to embed it effectively. This session opens a conversation about the evolution needed across both individual and organisational roles in leading change.

We will explore the critical role of executive sponsorship in driving outcomes, alongside how individuals at all levels can become more active participants in their own change journeys.

Drawing on lived experience in organisational change and project delivery, this discussion will highlight why change efforts falter, how to build change accountability both at leadership and individual levels and will share practical tools to accelerate success and reduce resistance.

  • Why change management is often misunderstood, undervalued, or started too late, and what needs to shift
  • The evolving role of executive project sponsors and how to better support them to lead change from the top
  • Practical approaches to build change accountability both at leadership and individual levels
  • New developments and tools from the fields of project sponsorship and change enablement

 

What you will leave with:

  1. A new perspective on why change efforts often struggle to gain traction or commitment
  2. Clarity on the distinct but connected roles of sponsors, leaders, and individuals in making change stick
  3. Practical tools and frameworks to support project sponsors and individuals through change
  4. Inspiration to evolve change practices so that both people and projects succeed together
