On-Demand | Video and Podcast
Leadership Sprint
In one high-impact 60-minute masterclass, you’ll learn how to turn relentless change into your competitive advantage. Using the Change Loop framework from the ALPHA Leadership Accelerator—recognised by the Chartered Management Institute (CMI)—you’ll diagnose your leadership capability, benchmark your team’s resilience, and design a rapid 30-day plan to transform chaos into control.
This isn’t theory—it’s a premium experience combining insight, assessment, and application led by a Professor of Practice in Leadership Transformation.

Organisational Development,Business owners, MDs, and transformation leads facing AI disruption, change saturation, and performance pressure.

Why it matters now
AI is the new change accelerator. Just like Brexit, the Financial Crisis, and COVID, it multiplies complexity faster than most organisations can adapt.
External shocks are unavoidable. Internal capability decides who fails—or thrives.
Research shows:
- 75% of HR leaders say managers are overwhelmed.
- 70% say current programmes don’t prepare them for what’s next.
- 39% of core skills will change by 2030Â
If your organisation can’t manage this “loop of change,” it falls behind faster every cycle.
