Grow Sphere – Organisational Change Management

This two-day event will feature a blend of interactive learning sessions and engaging activities designed to stimulate both the mind and spirit. Each day will begin with an energizing yoga session or similar activity to set a positive tone. Participants will then dive into a series of fire starter talks, interactive workshops, and collaborative deep dives into essential topics related to organisational change management. The use of open space technology will empower attendees to explore areas of particular interest, ensuring that everyone leaves with actionable insights tailored to their unique professional contexts.

In addition to the enriching event experience, participants will benefit from three months of cohort work following the event. This ongoing support structure emphasizes peer accountability, enabling individuals to implement their learnings effectively and pursue their professional development goals with confidence.

Join us at Grow Sphere to connect with like-minded professionals, deepen your understanding of organisational change management, and embark on a transformative journey towards achieving your career aspirations.

Grow Sphere is an innovative professional development initiative designed specifically for freelancers, fractionals, and interim professionals who often find themselves at a disadvantage compared to their internal counterparts. While internal employees typically benefit from structured training programs, retreats, and ongoing peer support, independent professionals frequently struggle to access similar opportunities for growth. This gap has become increasingly evident, particularly in the wake of the pandemic, as many seek meaningful connections and experiences that foster both personal and professional development.

At Grow Sphere, we recognize that traditional conferences and training sessions often fall short. They tend to offer superficial learning experiences without the necessary depth or accountability to facilitate real growth. Freelancers and interims may attend these events but often leave without a clear plan for applying their new knowledge or the support needed to sustain their development journey. Grow Sphere addresses these challenges head-on by providing a structured, immersive environment where participants can engage deeply with organisational change management concepts while building lasting relationships with peers.
