Most change programmes stall not because the strategy was wrong but because the culture, incentives and middle managers pulled the other way. Senior leaders who can read those forces and respond to them deliver restructures, mergers, digital shifts and turnarounds that survive the first year. This five-day programme equips directors and executives to do that.
You begin with organisational diagnosis using the McKinsey 7S model, the Burke-Litwin model and culture surveys, then move to Kotter's eight steps, ADKAR, Lewin's force field analysis and stakeholder mapping. Further sessions deal with sponsorship, change communication, handling resistance, building change agent networks and coaching managers through transitions. The final days connect organisational development to performance through balanced scorecards, OKRs, leadership behaviours, team effectiveness and the habits that keep a new culture in place. Chief executives, heads of department, HR directors, organisational development practitioners, public sector permanent secretaries and NGO country directors are the target audience. Delivery is by classroom, online or in-house and the certificate is CPD-accredited. Afterwards you can build a change plan with a clear case, a coalition, measures of progress and a realistic sustainment approach.
Organisations in every sector are being asked to change faster than their structures and habits allow: new regulation, funding shifts, technology adoption, mergers and leadership transitions arrive in quick succession. Executives who treat each of these as a separate project exhaust their people, while those who understand culture and organisational design can make change part of how the organisation normally works.
The Leadership and Performance in Change, Culture & Organisational Development Training Course is written for people who carry accountability for results across a whole institution. It examines how culture forms and how it can be assessed, how formal and informal systems shape behaviour, how to sponsor and sequence large-scale change, and how to build the capability and measures that turn an intervention into sustained performance.
Participants work on a live or realistic change challenge throughout the five days. Each session adds a component to a change plan: diagnosis, case for change, stakeholder strategy, communication, resistance management and performance measures. Facilitated peer challenge sessions test each plan against the practical realities of politics, resources and morale, so participants return with a plan they have already defended.
By the close of the course, participants will be able to:
