The Goals and Content
Acquiring the power and influence to manage change in our
organizations, at home, or just for ourselves is often an uphill battle
requiring considerable personal power and influence. Accordingly, The
Power Lab at Airlie House focuses on developing our ability to
consciously manage our beliefs, thoughts, feelings, and
behavior-conscious use of self. By doing so, we can discover and access
the enormous power that is inherently ours, begin to put and end to the
myriad ways we disempower ourselves, and learn how to create the
support we need to accomplish our goals and our dreams.
In the program you will:
- Discover within yourself the power to accomplish your
organizational and personal change goals.
- Learn how to create support systems needed for personal and
organizational change.
- Move toward mastery of seven transformative disciplines of
change management defined by Broom and Edie and Charlie Seashore at
Johns Hopkins University.
- Work with differences so that they become sources of
learning and synergy rather than sources of adversity and hostility.
- Play win/win while influencing others to support you and
your goals.
- Empower others to improve their performance on behalf of
organizational and personal goals.
- Remove the stress of power struggles from your
relationships at work and your personal life and prevent unwanted power
abuse.
