Our apprOAch

 

Organisations invest heavily in beginnings and tend to move on rather too swiftly from endings. There is often an unseen and significant cost to this. Through the pandemic organisations have experienced unprecedented loss and constant change. As we emerge we are at a critical juncture. There is an opportunity to reimagine the world of work, and how we lead. We support leaders to take this opportunity to:

  • Take their people with them through the relentless churn of change.

  • Release their people’s energy and focus to perform at their best.

  • Look creatively to the future.

Endings For Beginnings is about facilitating leaders to have conversations about brighter beginnings and healthier organisations, facilitated by better attending to endings. We support leaders and their teams to do this work in a structured and safe way, using our Four Pillars of Endings in Organisations: Reality, Emotions, Accomplishments, Ritual. 

This is fundamentally about attending to the human element of transition and change.

The starting point for dealing with transition is not the outcome, but the ending you have to make to leave the old situation behind.

BESPOKE OFFERINGS & Workshops

Our approach is always to understand your organisational need and create a tailored solution.

We work with forward thinking leaders who: 

  • Recognise the need to attend to the states of transition and emergence through the pandemic

  • Are transitioning their organisations (upscaling, downsizing, merging, closing)

  • Need insights and tools to help them lead with even greater agility and emotional intelligence 

Here is how we have facilitated this in the organisations we have worked with. Please use this as a starting point for a conversation with us about how we could meet the need in your organisation.

1. KEYNOTE TALK
An introduction to the benefits and principles: starting the conversation.
1 hour

2. EXTENDED INTERACTIVE TALK
As above, with built in self-reflection exercises and group discussion.
Up to 2.5 hours

3. ONE DAY WORKSHOP
•Looking in detail at why endings are neglected and why they are important.
•Working through each pillar with practical application to both self and organisation.
• Leave with a plan for Brighter Beginnings.
