<p><strong><br />
Written Information About the “Leading Change in Difficult Times” is below:</strong><br />
Well, I’m a little embarassed. I received some pretty important<br />
feedback a little while ago that I had not given you <span id="more-108"></span>enough<span id="more-110"></span><br />
information to be clear about whether Leading Change in Difficult<br />
Times fits your needs.</p>
<p>My apologies, and I’d like to do that now, because if this IS<br />
a fit for you and your team, we want you to take advantage<br />
of the one-time offer. If it’s not – then, it won’t matter.</p>
<p>First of all, it is designed for people who have responsibility<br />
for leading teams, organizations or companies through the<br />
challenges of change</p>
<p>– whether the change is related to:<br />
- budget cuts and layoffs<br />
- pains of fast growth<br />
- mergers or acquisitions<br />
- need to change the way you’re doing business<br />
- any and all of these</p>
<p>It is for managers, executives, owners, supervisors – anyone<br />
responsible for the effectiveness and speed of significant change<br />
initiatives – whether forced or designed.</p>
<p>So, let’s talk about the individual modules of the webinar series:</p>
<p>MODULE 1<br />
In Module 1, we’ll be discussing the important distinction between<br />
management and leadership and WHY leadership is so critical<br />
during times of change.</p>
<p>We’ll look at the difference between Change and Transitions and<br />
the critical mistakes managers and executives often make that<br />
stymie the change process and put the people so important to<br />
an effective change effort into a tail-spin.</p>
<p>We’ll look at the organizational systems that are potentially<br />
impacted by change… …and provide checklists for making<br />
sure you’re covering all the important leadership bases.<br />
These checklists will greatly simplify your ability to look at the<br />
complex leadership needs during change and be able to deal<br />
with them effectively one at a time.</p>
<p>We’ll also discuss the THREE phases of Transition and how<br />
they always fit into the change process – regardless of the kind<br />
of change.This transition model will be an important tool to tell<br />
you what leadership actions to take at any point in the change<br />
process.</p>
<p>If you understand this Transition model and how to use it, it<br />
greatly simplifies any change process.</p>
<p>This one module will repay the entire investment for many of you.</p>
<p>Between Modules 1 and 2, there will be a group coaching<br />
session that will allow you to get answers to YOUR specific<br />
questions. This will assure that you’ll be able to apply the<br />
concepts and tools directly to YOUR specific situation.</p>
<p>Let’s face it – knowing this stuff is the booby prize –<br />
applying it is where the real value is.</p>
<p>The Q&amp;A sessions are focused on helping you apply it.</p>
<p>MODULE 2<br />
Let’s discuss Module 2</p>
<p>Module II goes into detail about the first phase of transition –<br />
the Completion phase, or Endings phase, as William Bridges<br />
would call it – for those familiar with his work.</p>
<p>This session addresses the challenges of the early aspects<br />
of any change process and the specific  emotional issues that<br />
people go through in trying to hold on to the old ways.</p>
<p>We provide the simple, yet important methods for leading<br />
individuals, teams and organizations through this critical time<br />
and beyond their resistance, fears and concerns.</p>
<p>We look at the specific Effective Questions that become<br />
powerful leadership tools for quickly getting through this stage -<br />
where so many people and organizations get stuck.</p>
<p>We clarify how to kick-start any change process.</p>
<p>Again, we’ll have a group coaching session between the<br />
modules to assure you personalize the concepts, tools, and<br />
strategies.</p>
<p>MODULE 3<br />
Module 3 moves into clarifying what happens during the second<br />
phase of transition – which we call the Twilight Zone.</p>
<p>You’ll quickly understand why we call it the Twilight Zone and why<br />
you must CHANGE the focus of your leadership during this phase<br />
to get through it effectively.</p>
<p>If you don’t make this change in how you lead, people might very<br />
well slip backwards – into the Completion phase again.</p>
<p>Learn what is especially challenging about the Twilight Zone, and<br />
specifically what to do to optimize transition through it – rapidly<br />
and effectively.</p>
<p>We’ll discuss the special opportunities of this phase, and the<br />
NEW tools to accelerate the change process at THIS point –<br />
that would NOT have worked before now.</p>
<p>We’ll introduce the specific kinds of Effective Questions that<br />
optimize transition through the Twilight Zone phase of the<br />
change effort.</p>
<p>MODULE 4<br />
After another personalized coaching session, we’ll move into<br />
Module 4.</p>
<p>Module 4 discusses the particular distinctions of the third phase<br />
of transition… what we call Fully Engaged, because that is<br />
where you want to get your organization – fully engaged in the<br />
new situation – back to full productivity.</p>
<p>We’ll look at how to keep the team or organization focused on<br />
moving forward.</p>
<p>We’ll introduce a big-picture organizational model that makes it<br />
easy for you to do quick reviews of…<br />
…where you are in a change process at any point in time,<br />
…and what you need to focus attention on right NOW.</p>
<p>We’ll provide specific checklists to make this process of<br />
assessing where the organization is SIMPLE and<br />
straightforward.</p>
<p>MODULE 5<br />
Then, after another personalized Q&amp;A call, we’ll move into<br />
Module 5.</p>
<p>Module 5 is about Pulling All the Elements of “Leading Change<br />
in Difficult Times” Together.</p>
<p>We’ll make sure you fully understand the BIG PICTURE issues<br />
and solutions of Leading Change, as well as the specific<br />
approaches for dealing with the day-to-day challenges that<br />
inevitably WILL come up.</p>
<p>In this module, we’ll focus on some of the subtleties of Leading<br />
Change – that can make all the difference in effectiveness.</p>
<p>After Module 5, we’ll have one more coaching session to<br />
answer any final questions or challenges you might have.</p>
<p>Hopefully, that provides a better since of what we’ll be doing<br />
in the Leading Change webinar series.</p>
<p>Remember, our anticipated investment once this inaugural<br />
session is complete…will be $997 plus potential fees for<br />
additional people.</p>
<p>For this one time, we want to make it as easy as possible for<br />
you and your organization to participate – because…</p>
<p>…we want to create some outstanding testimonials!<br />
…we want to help you in this challenging economy.</p>
<p>So, for this first time only for this particular webinar series, the<br />
entire fee is only $497 for a single computer site, And you can<br />
have multiple people involved at no additional charge.</p>
<p>Also, because we failed to provide the important information<br />
about the design of the modules, we are going to extend the<br />
registration date deadline from Friday, the 10th, to Friday the<br />
17th of April.</p>
<p>I do apologize for not providing this information sooner. I’m a<br />
long way from being a pro at this marketing thing…</p>
<p>…and we’re really good at developing leaders. <img src="http://www.leadershipmadesimple.com/journal/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif" alt=":-)" class="wp-smiley" /></p>
<p>We hope this has been helpful to you and that you’ll join us for<br />
the webinar series. We’re going to do everything we can to make<br />
it an outstanding value for you &#8211; and it’s fully guaranteed!</p>
