Join us this May for our 3-session course
Unlocking Your Potential: the Immunity to Change™ approach
facilitated by David Westerlund
Founder of Be Present Discover Joy
Consulting and Coaching
This course will be highly-interactive, taking time to build a robust learning container to enable us to dive into the Immunity to Change ™ (ITC) approach. Harvard's Robert Kegan and Lisa Lahey have developed ITC over twenty years of research in adult development. Why is it that even when we are committed to change that matters, we still find ourselves stuck?
The Nike motto falls short. It’s not a matter of Just Doing It. What we need is grow in our mental complexity. We need to discover our “immunity to change’’ - the hidden dynamics (that we each have a particular version of) - and then explore whether and how it’s still serving us or not.
What results is a new experience of agency and liberation. We can free ourselves from Big Assumptions that have been holding onto us, limiting what’s possible, and shift to expanding the possibilities that are now available to us!
This course is for you
