The iterative process of positive change
Change is something we all struggle with at times. We sense we want or need something different to what we have today, but struggle to identify exactly what that is, how to get it or what is preventing us from realising it.
We may fall into a fog of uncertainty or self doubt, become limited by the assumptions or beliefs we hold, or trapped by our thinking or habitual patterns of behaviour. However, when approached in the right way, change is something to be embraced and not feared.
Our proprietary change model and process helps to overcome these challenges through five key steps:
- Curiosity – the starting point is always about gaining new insights (what do you really want to have happen? ) and then uncover any thinking traps, unhelpful assumptions or beliefs (what’s holding you back?).
- Clarity – this is about defining how you can get what you want, what you need in place to make it happen and how to circumvent potential challenges.
- Courage – this is not about being a superhero, but finding sufficient courage to step out of your comfort zone and try new things, and then notice what happens.
- Confidence – this grows from seeing and assimilating both the successes and learning from experimenting, fuelling your self-belief that what you want is possible, underpinned by new learning and growth.
- Conviction – repeated success and learning gives both individuals and teams the conviction to take necessary and consistent actions, avoiding being distracted from your purpose and goals so you can realise the benefits of change and unlock your full talents.
