Introduction to AIM
Readiness, Change Leadership, Communication Planning, and Resistance to Change are just the beginning of what’s covered in this Action Learning program.
Like all our change management training programs, the Introduction to AIM is practical training. Participants apply learning to their change projects, either independently or in small teams, and take away an assessment of their organization’s cultural risks, operationalized tactics and strategies, core tools, a new vocabulary, and informed insights into what AIM will deliver for your organization.
The Introduction to AIM 2-day program is an excellent option if you:
- Want an overview of fundamental change management and how to apply it to projects
- Need to build a “critical mass of champions”—from IT, to Project Managers, to Business and Clinical leaders, to HR, to….
- Aren’t sure where to start on the change management journey
- Want to test the waters to see if this is the right change management methodology for your organization

ChangePro
There’s no doubt that organizational life today can feel like an emotional rollercoaster where people experience constant whiplash from the unprecedented number of changes. It’s true across the board—whether your organization is for profit or non-profit; large or small; or wherever in the world you happen to be located.
The challenge is to ensure everyone remains productive and professional without succumbing to resistance from the sheer level of disruption.
The ChangePro ½-day program gives participants the awareness needed to better self-manage through change, using a current real change as the “case study”. When people feel more control, there’s much greater readiness, and much less resistance!
Topics include:
- Understanding the personal impact from an upcoming change
- Clarifying expectations for the future
- Explaining why it’s normal to have some “change pain”
- Creating a personal self-management action plan
Offered virtually and on-site, with the option of a session in the morning and a Train the Trainer in the afternoon.
AIM Accreditation (Change Management Certification)
AIM Accreditation is our signature change management certification course.
The AIM Accreditation session is critical learning for Project Managers, HR/OD, IT, Org Effectiveness, and business and clinical leaders. For the fastest path to optimization, it’s ideal to have us come on-site and Accredit your core team, including key Sponsors. We’ll tailor the session to your projects and you’ll “learn by doing,” so it’s not down-time—it’s work time! Or come together to a public session.
Executive Briefing
Too often, senior leaders assume that “change” is for others. They don’t recognize the need to play a visible, active role as Sponsors. What’s more, they aren’t aware what they personally need to do to demonstrate their commitment to changes.
The potential for implementation success increases exponentially once they know expectations, and agree to behaviorally cascade commitment to their own direct reports. That’s why this 3-4 hour session has such a dramatic impact on the speed and business outcomes of projects!
Each Executive Briefing is business-focused, tailored to your needs, and built around data on your own past history of implementation. Topics typically include:
- The important difference between “installation” and “implementation” and how this affects value realization
- What leaders must do to express, model and reinforce behaviors to be effective Sponsors
- Why leaders control the pace of change as opposed to the activity level of project teams
Offered virtually and on-site.
SponsorShop
You can feel the potential for acceleration when all the Sponsors for your initiatives are aligned and demonstrating their personal commitment to the change every day! That’s why the 1 day SponsorShop session is so valuable.
What’s more, better Sponsors are better leaders. In a matter of hours, we build both awareness and competence, all focused on your project and your organization. The program is built around your data on past implementation practices, and includes a personal assessment of each participant’s strengths and developmental opportunities to become more effective Sponsors.
It’s inter-active, fast-paced, and includes:
- The difference between “installation and implementation”
- What is Sponsorship, and how Sponsor behavior drives implementation success
- How Sponsorship impacts the other key elements of the AIM methodology, including Readiness, Communication, and Reinforcement
- A time-bound action plan to drive personal behavior change
Offered virtually and on-site.
Initiative Workshop (Waterfall, Hybrid or Agile)
One or two of your intact core project teams together for 3 days—learning AIM fundamentals, and working collaboratively on their change management deliverables. It’s applied learning, real time, under the guidance of a true expert consultant. Imagine what you could accomplish in a few days that could take weeks otherwise, It’s not downtime; it’s work time!

- Developing a clear, compelling Change Definition, including impacts, “human objectives,” and anticipated disruptions
- Identifying the key roles of Sponsors, Reinforcing Sponsors, and Change Agents, and building a Key Role Map visualizing required resources and timing
