Check out our Steps to Change Program

At Steps, we understand that achieving long-term change within an organisation requires more than just a training programme. Our Steps to Change process involves four stages that deliver effective training programmes for clients worldwide.

The first stage, ‘See It’, utilises drama to provide delegates with a fresh perspective on their current behaviours and demonstrate the need for change. The second stage, ‘Own It’, ensures that individuals see the value or necessity of change. The ‘Change It’ stage involves developing new skills and behaviours through bespoke role play, coaching, and other learning activities. Finally, the ‘Live It’ stage emphasises implementing a wider plan of action and sustaining the momentum of change.

Our understanding of what is required for real, lasting change has been built through our work and research with clients worldwide. We work with clients to create a personalised programme that fits their specific needs and constraints. Our goal is to create lasting behaviour change, and we work with clients to develop further support and the role of leadership in making it happen.
