Change Accelerator

"What a truly inspirational but practical leadership course, I enjoyed every minute."

Running for three months over Autumn, the course aims to facilitate a systemic shift in the sustainability of the built environment.

The Change Accelerator objectives are to:

  • Expose participants to cutting edge leadership insights, delivered through a mix of learning techniques and peer-to-peer dialogue.
  • Apply a new frame of thinking to existing challenges, leveraging shared insights and developing a strategy to positively achieve sectoral change.
  • Hone storytelling techniques to deliver transformational change at organisational level.
  • Apply a new frame of thinking to existing challenges, leveraging shared insights and developing a strategy to positively achieve sectoral change.

What a truly inspirational but practical leadership course, I enjoyed every minute, even the bits where I was way out of my comfort zone. Elfrida and her team created such a safe space to deeply explore our personal purpose and the change we want to see. I’ve learnt so much from everyone on the course, hearing their stories and it’s given me the confidence to be myself and do my own thing. Most importantly I feel so much more confident to challenge and do things differently.

It might sound cliched, however it has genuinely accelerated my business change journey. It provided the impetus and the head space to recognise the importance and priority to ‘get it done’. It has broadened by leadership skills by building on my ability to tell a story and appeal to the emotional/’feeling’ argument
