The First of Our Next-Generation ECD Specialist Courses: Emotional Change Strategy Course

 

We’re thrilled to announce the launch of our ECD Emotional Change Strategy Course, the first of three brand new, next-generation ECD Specialist Courses set to be released over the next nine months. This course marks a new chapter in emotional culture design, offering a completely new approach to helping leaders and teams manage change by recognising and shaping the emotions at play – for themselves and the people they serve.

Why Emotional Change Strategy?

Change is inevitable in every organisation, but how we manage the emotional impact of change can make all the difference. Whether it’s a shift in leadership, restructuring, or navigating an evolving marketplace, the way people feel about change has a direct impact on its success. The ECD Emotional Change Strategy Course equips leaders with the tools and insights they need to guide their teams through the emotional landscape of change, ensuring that transitions are not only smoother but more meaningful.

Harnessing Collective Emotions for Change

When individual leaders engage with The Emotional Culture Deck (ECD), they think about their own emotions and how these emotions affect their leadership. This process is often transformational on a personal level. But the real power of this course lies in its collaborative nature. Leaders work together, discussing and aligning their emotional drivers as a group. These collective emotional insights not only help leaders better connect with each other but also provide valuable guidance on how to engage their teams emotionally during periods of change.

By using The ECD, leaders can harness the collective emotions of their people and teams to navigate change effectively. The shared decisions they make in this course ensure that everyone’s emotions are recognised and aligned, enabling smoother transitions and a more cohesive team environment.

What to Expect in the Course

In this course, participants will learn to:

  • Recognise emotional drivers: Understand the key emotions that shape how people react to change.
  • Shape emotional change strategies: Collaboratively design emotion-centred strategies that foster resilience and engagement during transitions.
  • Facilitate open discussions: Use The Emotional Culture Deck to encourage leaders to discuss how they should feel to navigate change effectively.
  • Align leadership emotions: Help leaders align their emotional experiences and better understand how to emotionally support one another and their teams through change.

Celebrate with a Special 28-Day Emotional Change Challenge - Starting November 11 

To celebrate the launch of our newest ECD Emotional Change Strategy Course, we’re running a special Cohort Based Course. This guided learning journey is limited to 30 participants only, with first access given to our Elephant Rider community.

Here’s what you can expect:

  • Six-week guided learning journey: Over the course of 28 days, you’ll participate in a structured programme designed to help you master the Emotional Change Strategy framework.
  • Weekly coaching calls: Each week, we’ll come together for a 60-minute live coaching call where you’ll review the past week’s lessons, share reflections, and prepare for the next stage of learning.
  • Self-paced online learning: In between calls, you’ll be challenged to complete sections of the online Emotional Change Strategy Course, applying what you’ve learned in real-world scenarios.
  • Build connections: Throughout the challenge, you’ll form new connections and relationships with other leaders and practitioners in the cohort, fostering a community of shared growth and learning.
  • Earn your certification: By the end of the 28 days, you will have completed the Emotional Change Strategy Course and earned your status as an ECD Change Practitioner.

This is a unique opportunity to not only learn but experience the powerful effects of emotional change strategy in a cohort-based setting. It’s a journey that will give you practical tools for managing change, build your network, and solidify your role as a leader in emotional culture.

Elephant Riders get first access before we open this challenge to the public, so if you’re keen to join, keep an eye out for an update when we open enrolments for our Emotional Change Challenge.


A New Era of Emotional Culture Design

The ECD Emotional Change Strategy Course is the first of three upcoming courses in our next-generation ECD Specialist Course series. Over the next nine months, we’ll be rolling out two more courses that will further elevate how leaders engage with emotional culture at work. Each course is designed to tackle specific challenges related to leadership, change, and stakeholder engagement, empowering you with practical tools and insights.

Our aim with this new series is to dive deeper into the unique ways emotions influence every aspect of work and to help leaders harness those emotions to create thriving, resilient teams and organisations.

  • ECD Emotional Leadership Development Course: Building emotionally smart leaders who can establish and build the emotions people need to thrive inside their teams and organisations.
