How do we know it when we see it?
Be Aware!
Group discussion of possible disruptions that could occur or are already occurring in your industry (real or imagined)
What is driving the disruption?
How can your organisation respond?
What are the implications for how your organisation is managed?

What about reality?
What’s your group’s best idea of how to respond to the disruption?
Use the NUF framework to reality test the idea.
Change!
Following through on your group’s best idea for responding to disruption:
Assume all team members work in the same organisation
Discuss the organisations options for change to allow a response to the disruption
Design a change management strategy in response to the disruption
Communicate!
Create awareness (how will you do this?)
Create a desire for change (what story will get ‘buy-in’?)
Explain how the change will be supported and resourced
Explain how you will ensure everyone will be able to participate in the change (any training etc.)
Explain how the organization will be reinforcing the change to support sustainability
Share your vision!
Appoint a change agent or leader to share your strategy with the class, each leader will have 3 minutes to generate buy-in from the class.
