Be a Change Champion

Course Overview

No more Nokia brick phones, VHS or payphones! Facebook is uncool, Snapchat has almost gone, and TikTok is the hype.   

Users enjoy a better UX, smoother features and faster tech.  

Guess what! We live in a VUCA world. First used in 1987, VUCA means that people must adapt to an increasingly volatile, uncertain, complex and ambiguous environment. 

Change happens fast, often and unpredictably.

A business or community will often seek out local influencers and emerging leaders, like yourself, to be more agile and successful in adapting to change. 

Approach Services has designed this engaging and timely change champion e-learning course, jampacked with highly transferrable and practical tools. Change advocates feel less victimised by rapid business change. The course empowers you to seize opportunities and foster better mental wellbeing for yourselves and others during transitioning times.

Step up, commit to and take control of your challenging and changing business situation.
