About this event

Online cohort program consisting of 6 biweekly sessions.

• Can you see the potential for improvement in your organisation, without being able to make the change happen?
• Do you want to transform your organisation in a way that doesn't require a certain role or mandate?
• Would you like to become masterful at real, successful and lasting organisational change?

Introducing a rare opportunity for leaders, coaches and other visionaries to develop their ability to induce successful and sustainable organisational change — without relying on power, position or permission.

Join this online cohort program to seriously level up your transformative capability!

Does any of this sound like you?

• You wish you knew how to design and implement initiatives that lead to massive enrolment, upgraded capability and lasting change.
• You are not content with superficial or temporary change. You want deep, lasting organisational transformation that permanently alters the DNA of your workplace.
• You have experienced change projects before with high ambitions, big investments and underwhelming or short-lived results.
• Transforming an entire organisation feels out of reach for you – perhaps due to lack of mandate, training or management support.
• You believe that evolving and unlocking new capability is the key to success and perhaps even to long-term survival for your organisation.
• You want to develop your organisation but you aren’t sure if it’s possible for you and - if it is - where to start.
• You sometimes feel that your organisation is regressing, stepping away from earlier advancements, losing some of its best people and becoming less capable than before.

Believe me, I get it...

When I started out as Agile Coach, it seemed that all necessary changes were constantly either:

• blocked by someone higher up the food chain
• unskilfully implemented
• not producing the envisioned results
  and/or
• rolled back as soon when the heat was turned up or a new manager arrived.

Managers either didn’t want to change, couldn't hack it, or were themselves blocked by someone – or something – higher up. No one seemed to have the will, the skill and the mandate to make the necessary changes happen.

When I occasionally got the proper mandate to drive change myself, the results were rarely as good as I had envisioned them. Despite lots of planning, new structures and training and coaching of key people, a big part of the organisation always seemed unable to understand and follow the new way of working.

And finally, in the few examples where an organisation truly acquired new capability and started to operate in a new and better way, the results were without exception extremely fragile. A new manager, a bit of pressure from stakeholders or some minor difficulties in the market was usually enough for all the hard-won changes to be rolled back and replaced by the older and less effective ways.

For the above-mentioned reasons, I often left workplaces frustrated and disappointed, in search for organisations that were truly interested in — and ready for — real transformation, rather than just cosmetic changes. I did not find any. This in turn made me doubt my skills and even the concept of transformation itself.

However, I refused to give up. Deep down I knew, that there was a better way, if I could only work out how …

Fast forward 5 years, I’ve now discovered and mastered the art of catalysing transformation in any organisation and from any position and role.

Using my own approach – Peaceful Transformation - I'm able to utilise the unique conditions of each organisation, identify the next step of its evolution, and grow its capabilities to the highest sustainable level.

The last couple of years, I’ve refined the techniques of Peaceful Transformation, tested them under sharp conditions, and trained others in using them.

And now I want to show you how to use this approach to get the same results.
Are you ready to design and implement successful and sustainable transformation?

Here's the good news

I'm running a beta program where I’m sharing with you EVERYTHING I know about creating successful transformational change in ANY organisation, from ANY position, and regardless of your role and mandate.

I will show you how to:

• Drive the kind of change that is immediately adopted and accepted, because it represents the next logical step for the organisation.
• Create resilient change that stays in place even under pressure, by altering the organisation‘s systemic DNA.
• Transform with the highest effectiveness and efficiency, but without using force and without relying on power, position or permission.

Essentially, I’ll teach you how to catalyse organisational evolution.

Don’t just take my word for it …

Let’s look at some brief words about Peaceful Transformation from a few former students of this program. (For their complete testimonials scroll down to the bottom of the page.)

“[…] Peaceful transformation grows the change from the inside out. Sensing what change that is supposed to happen, planting different change experiment seeds, let them grow and get roots without using mandate or power. […]”
Dirk Holste, Agile Coach

“[…] You will learn about an approach that aligns with our human nature, is easy to remember, is simple enough to be practical, is deep enough to encourage you to keep learning and experimenting, and enables you to work, even without power or a mandate. […]”
Oluf Nissen, Agile Coach

“[…] if you are a passionate change agent wanting to know how you can create a sustainable, successful, and lasting change from any position, join his upcoming program!”
Lopa Misra, Agile Coach & Agile Transformation

This is my transformational promise to you...

If you sign up for the beta program, and participate actively in it, you’ll learn everything necessary to create powerful, successful and resilient change in any organisation and from any position, starting immediately.

Here’s why this opportunity is unique

• I only aim to run this beta program ONCE MORE (after that, it will become a high-level signature program at a higher price)
• I’m going to share with you the unique and complete approach (no holding back) for how to catalyse organisational evolution.
• I will start by teaching you a basic version of the approach, which will enable you to get better results from day one, while the more advanced parts will help you grow more capable and masterful over time.

.

In return, this is your commitment to me…

• You have to show up and be fully committed to the process. You must be able to make it to the first, longer session and at least four (but preferably all) of the five regular sessions, as well as doing assigned reading/viewing/group work between sessions. If you miss a session you promise to catch up during that week.
• You’ll provide feedback on the course & a testimonial describing your experience of the process and the results you’ve seen.

That's it!

You ARE a good fit for this program if…

• You’re an open and curious person.
• You believe that transformation will make your organisation stronger and more capable.
• You have a specific change in mind that you would like to implement, or you want to identify a change that could help you move towards your vision.
• You are willing to work on the stuff that will make you a masterful ‘catalyst for evolutionary transformation’.

You’re NOT a good fit if…

• You are not interested in organisational change.
• You’re not ready to try out the things you’ll learn in the program.
• You already have a great method for change and you’re more interested in telling the group about THAT then learning something new.
• You’re going to complain and create negative energy in the group.

Frequently Asked Questions

Must I have 'change' or 'transformation' in my job title or role description, to be able to use Peaceful Transformation?
No – in fact, some of my students who have seen the best results are informal leaders or just regular employees who saw potential for improvement and new capability in their organisation.

What if I’m already an Enterprise (Agile) Coach or some other form of trained change agent, will this help me get further?
Absolutely. Peaceful Transformation plays well with other methodologies, builds upon them and makes them stronger. This program will give you new perspectives and tools that allows you to use the knowledge and techniques you already possess more powerfully, to have quicker, stronger and deeper impact.

By calling your approach Peaceful Transformation, are you not indicating that most other frameworks and methodologies for transformation are aggressive?
Yes.

Who is this program designed for?
The Peaceful Transformation Academy program is best suited for coaches, leaders (formal and informal leaders) and employees/consultants with a real interest in transforming their organisations to make them more capable. Such participants will find great value and new insights, which can quickly be used to see fast results in their day-to-day work.
Other people with curiosity and an interest in change and transformation will also find the program well worth the investment , as they will learn much about how and why organisations evolve, and how to catalyse that process.

Testimonials

Here’s what some earlier students have to say about the program:

“Have you been part of or seen agile transformations that are executed as a project without giving the effect it supposed to have? It sweeps over the organisation without creating real change, without growing roots, without sustainable impact.
Peaceful transformation grows the change from the inside out. Sensing what change that is supposed to happen, planting different change experiment seeds, let them grow and get roots without using mandate or power.

Peaceful Transformation puts the organisation and people in focus. Explore what “edges” there are, what is supposed to happen and act as a catalyst. It is transformational agility where you explore the path as you experiment, grow and learn.”
Dirk Holste, Agile Coach

“Are you wrestling with a change effort in your organization? Maybe it's not going the way you imagined, and maybe you're leading it, or maybe you're part of a group of people charged with helping the effort along? Either way, my experience from the pilot cohort leads me to believe that learning about Peaceful Transformation can help you navigate your effort both with more inner peace for yourself, and with more effectiveness overall.

You will learn about an approach that aligns with our human nature, is easy to remember, is simple enough to be practical, is deep enough to encourage you to keep learning and experimenting, and enables you to work, even without power or a mandate. You will participate in a series of sessions that introduce the material, provide space for individual and small group reflection, and encourage you to practice outside of the program itself.

All throughout there will be room for questions, seeing new perspectives, and equipping yourself with the patience you inevitably will need to have your change efforts take effect. If that sounds like it could be helpful to you, I encourage you to apply for the upcoming cohort.”
Oluf Nissen, Agile Coach

“As change agents, we always have the question in mind “What method/approach can create sustainable and successful change, without requiring power, position, or permission?”. Joining this program helped me find that approach and look at transformation/change from a new lens.

As a facilitator, Esbjörn is calm, composed, and someone who brings in a varied range of experiences. The icing on the cake was the cohort members who bring in different challenges, perspectives, and interactions leading to creating something beautiful.

So, if you are a passionate change agent wanting to know how you can create a sustainable, successful, and lasting change from any position, join his upcoming program!”
Lopa Misra, Agile Coach & Agile Transformation
