In this train-the-trainer you will learn:

• What the Tipping Point is and how it can make a needed organizational change both contagious and sustainable. The Tipping Point’s strength lies in leveraging friendly competition to foster dialogue and discussion on organizational change. This conversation is key. It uncovers hidden assumptions, and highlights team members’ individual knowledge. This serves to create a richer collective understanding of ways to effectively implement change.
• How to use the Tipping Point simulation of organizational change with a group working toward a change. The simulation gives teams an opportunity to experiment with the factors affecting change. It helps them discover—through focused dialogue—an effective implementation plan that is appropriate for their organization.
• Feel confident that you have practical tools that can free clients from the cycle of organizational change failures to successfully implement needed change. After you facilitate the Tipping Point Workshop, your clients will:
• Understand the basics of the underlying model of change represented in the model.
• Have a focused conversation on the factors affecting change in their own environment.
• Begin the process of creating a shared mental model of change in their organization.
• Bring specific ideas back to their organization to foster a needed organizational change.

Who is It For?

Anyone implementing an organizational change: Coupling the Tipping Point Workshop with your work will provide you with a competitive edge.  It shows that you understand that implementing change is about people shifting their attitudes and embracing new ways of working, not just about new processes, new software, or new hardware. You’ll be able to save weeks or months of frustration by recognizing the critical success factors early in any change process.

The Tipping Point is effective because it gets people involved. It’s fun! The simulation is engaging, and the competition built into the workshop adds a dimension that increases people’s involvement. While devising strategies to beat the other teams, participants discuss their ideas and hidden assumptions about organizational change. Once people are involved and thinking about change strategies, they can then have a more serious discussion on organizational change.  This helps teams form and apply effective change strategies to their own change initiatives.
