Summary Video & Discussion
TARGET AUDIENCE: All learners SUGGESTED TIMING: 15 - 30 minutes
The module subject-matter is introduced using a short animated video. The knowledge check and personal reflections questions are then used to explore learners’ understanding and experience before moving on to other connected activities.
Facilitators can make use of a range of techniques such as brainstorming or debates to explore the knowledge check questions.
Use examples of learners’ experiences in the supplementary activity which follows.
Building Bridges
TARGET AUDIENCE: All learners SUGGESTED TIMING: 10 - 15 minutes
This activity uses a practical example to demonstrate why having a method makes change more successful. Learners divide into small groups and are given materials to build a small paper bridge between two marker pens. However they are not given any instructions.
When they have built their bridges, the other learners guess how many small coins (such as those the size of pennies, cents, centimes, etc.) the bridge can support.
Once the bridges have been tested, the facilitator builds their own bridge using the instructions provided and this bridge is tested.
Popular Methodologies, Models & Approaches
TARGET AUDIENCE: Learners new to change SUGGESTED TIMING: 45 - 60 minutes
In this activity, small groups of learners research popular change management methodologies, models and approaches. They prepare a short presentation to the rest of the group and then a group discussion is held to compare and contrast these various organizing principles applied to change initiatives.
The Six Thinking Hats
TARGET AUDIENCE: Executives, experienced change agents, sponsors SUGGESTED TIMING: 45 - 60 minutes
In this activity, small groups of more experienced learners discuss the main points of, strengths and weaknesses of common change methodologies using Edward de Bono's Six Thinking Hats technique.
Using briefing materials provided, facilitate a discussion on each of the methodologies.
Where numbers permit, each learner should take it in turns to wear the blue hat – i.e. chair the discussion – with your support where needed.
Each learner (or small group, if there are too many) should be allocated a change management methodology. This can be done during the session, in which case around 10 minutes should be allowed for them to review their briefing materials. However it is preferable that these allocations be made before the course, giving them time to research their methodology.
During the first white hat round for each methodology the designated learner should give a brief overview of the methodology to the rest of the group.
For more information on facilitating using the Six Thinking Hats, see the facilitators’ briefing sheet.
