“The Immunity-to-Change Process: When Change is Hard to Make”

September 12 @ 12:00 pm - 1:30 pm

Free – $25.00

by Deborah Heisling, Ed.D

 CCEs: 1.50 (0.75 ocre/0.75 resource)

 Why is change so difficult, even when our clients are genuinely committed to it? What can we do to better support them to succeed in changing? The Immunity-to-Change (ITC) process is designed to enable individuals to identify assumptions they currently hold that are likely to interfere with their personal effectiveness. This chapter introduces the ITC process, illustrating how it works with examples of client work.  Readers can gain their own powerful picture, or “diagnostic,” of the systematic way they unintentionally work against the wanted behavior (this is what we call the “immunity to change”), and what they can do to disrupt that system.

LIST THREE TO FIVE PRIMARY LEARNING OBJECTIVES:

Participants will:

  • Understand what a psychological immune system is and how it operates
  • Gain a picture of the process for how to diagnose a psychological immune system
  • Consider how to begin the process of overturning an immune system

LIST THREE TO FIVE EXPECTED OUTCOMES:

Participants will gain knowledge on:

  • Draft their own immunity to change
  • Identify one or two limiting assumptions that support their immunity to change
  • Consider a couple of possible strategies for investigating their assumptions to assess their accuracy

Speaker: Deborah Helsing, Ed.D is Director of Minds at Work, where she coaches, consults and provides training on the Immunity to Change approach. Deb designs leadership development programs and learning experiences that are “deliberately developmental,” going beyond technical or informational approaches to engage transformational or adaptive learning and change.

She also holds a faculty position at Harvard University’s Graduate School of Education, teaching courses in Adult Development and Immunity to Change.  Deb has co-authored several articles and books, including: An Everyone Culture:  Becoming a Deliberately Developmental Organization (2016, with Robert Kegan, Lisa Lahey, Andy Fleming, and Matt Miller) winner of an 800-CEO-Read Business Book Award; Right Weight, Right Mind: The ITC Approach to Permanent Weight Loss (2014, with Robert Kegan and Lisa Lahey); The Immunity to Change Coach’s Guide (2011, with Lisa Lahey and Robert Kegan) and “Unlocking Leadership Potential: Overcoming Immunities to Change” (2010, with Lisa Lahey) in Extraordinary Leadership: Addressing the Gaps in Senior Executive Development.
