Develop your skills in facilitating change

Organizational transformation is a challenging journey that requires the active involvement of every employee. Many organizations fail to reach their full potential due to resistance to change and a lack of engagement.

At Howspace, we’re committed to equipping leaders with the expertise and tools needed to navigate the complex world of organizational transformation.

Our free, 3-week virtual course is designed to expand your skills and knowledge, providing you with frameworks and methodologies to drive successful transformations.

You get to:

  • Deepen your knowledge and gain a wider understanding of involvement in organizational transformations.
  • Delve into an array of tools, methodologies, and frameworks essential for leading successful change.
  • Engage in a dynamic social learning journey, tapping into the collective wisdom of your peers.

The course consists of:

  • Five asynchronous sessions (30-45 minutes each)
  • One synchronous workshop on how to utilize Howspace in the transformation journey.
  • Facilitated social learning space for the participants
  • Participants can now also choose from our list of 25 (and counting) supported languages to communicate freely in their preferred language, thanks to our AI!
  • An end reflection, after which you receive a certificate of completion

The next cohort starts on September 9 and can be completed asynchronously in your own time during a three-week period. The expectation for you is to have approximately 2 hours per week set aside for learning. In addition to the asynchronous learning modules, there will be one synchronous 1-hour workshop emphasizing a more practical, hands-on approach to utilizing Howspace in the transformation journey.

While you work according to your schedule each week, you’ll be connected with a global community of professionals who can support one another and share knowledge.

Please note that we’ll have limited seats, so make sure to secure your spot now!
