Description
'One of the most interesting, storytelling, modules I've enrolled for in a long while!! The association with the animals surely will make the content "stick". Thank you.' Kirsten S.
'First of its kind. I really appreciate the hard work invested in the course. The content is amazing as well I would highly recommend it to future leaders' Mpumelelo D.
Instead of learning about change management in a dull meeting room, we go on a safari to Africa (yes, really!). You get to know the impressive change management skills of the animal kingdom and their ability to adapt - which we will use immediately to take actionable, practical lessons from it into our personal and professional life. The 66-page workbook will assist you all the way. This course, part of our "Wildlife Leadership" series, will impress you!
Already during the course, you will implement and use the checklists, templates, psychological tips, and practical examples in your life immediately. At the same time, you will be impressed by the animal world and how far ahead they are when it comes to adapting to change - and what we can learn from it.
THIS COURSE IS MADE FOR
you, if you are
Manager in charge of a change project
Executive and you want to take your employees with you during a 'change project' - even if you might not know where the change will lead you
Change agent who is supposed to support the upcoming and current change processes
HR-employee and you want to support employees and managers of your organization in coping with the (constant) changes and implementing the changes motivated and successfully
Employee of a company and you want to play an active role in the change initiatives of your company
IS THIS COURSE IS THE RIGHT CHOICE FOR YOU?
Perhaps you have already attended various courses on change management, read books about change processes, and participated in some changes yourself ...
... but you are still looking for a better way of dealing with change?
... and you have the impression that there has to be another way than CIP, Kaizen, Six Sigma and Co.?
... and you think that changes are nothing new and that others - for example, nature and the animal kingdom - have been able to cope with them for millions of years and that we could learn from them?
If this is the case, this course is perfect for you!
THE IDEA OF THIS COURSE & WHY IT WAS RECORDED DURING A SAFARI
Wild animals neither have the luxury of a comfort zone nor can they plan for the future - and yet they are still here. In this change management course, we learn why animals are so good at handling change
Everyone knows examples of ‘how to handle change' in the business environment - and nobody listens to them anymore. Once you use the examples from the animal world, people will listen to you again
Since my first safari in South Africa in 2005, I have been fascinated by lions, cheetahs, African wild dogs, elephants, and Co. - and only then did I realize how much hidden knowledge we can find in the animal kingdom
You will be able to remember considerably more from this course because the connection between the animal world and our world will give you completely new impressions that your brain can remember better
The different sceneries we used for recording the videos are an additional reminder of how positive change can be - in this case, it will keep you more engaged with the course and help you to learn more
Yes, I actually recorded this course on a safari in South Africa.
I, your coach Axel Rittershaus, have been a professional executive coach and facilitator of leadership development programs worldwide since 2008. Until 2010 I lived and worked near Stuttgart in Germany.
In 2010 my wife and I moved to South Africa, and I continued working with companies and executives worldwide. I've been to more than 20 countries personally, and my online courses even reach 130+ countries.
In September 2021, we flew from Cape Town to the Sabi Sands area, near Kruger National Park, South Africa. The mission: Record the content for this and several other courses of our "Wildlife Leadership" academy at the Ulusaba Rock & Safari Lodge, owned by Sir Richard Branson.
My objective:
To produce the best course for you that motivates and supports you in actively tackling changes and confidently leading even challenging change projects.
If you want to think 'outside the box', then this course is for you.
You can hardly go further 'outside the box' than going with me on a safari in South Africa!
Despite the unfamiliar environment, you will know exactly what you should do in your everyday life afterward.

Mein Versprechen an Sie und all meine Kunden, seit ich mich 2008 als Leadership-Trainer, Führungskräfte-Coach und Autor für Führung und Kommunikation selbständig gemacht habe lautet:
"Jedes einzelne Element eines Kurses muss einen Mehrwert bringen und direkt praktisch umsetzbar sein"
Das bedeutet für Sie:
1) Sie erlernen SOFORT anwendbare Methoden und Tipps, sowohl für den Alltag als Führungskraft, als auch für Mitarbeiter ohne Führungsrolle

Vor meiner Trainer-Tätigkeit war ich 15 Jahre lang selbständiger IT-Unternehmer sowie Führungskraft bei Accenture und mittelständischen Unternehmen.
Ob es um das Setzen von Zielen mittels OKR, das Führen von Feedback- und Kritikgesprächen oder das Beeinflussen von Vorgesetzten geht - alle Kurse sind auf die Praxis zugeschnitten.

My promise to you and all my clients since I became self-employed in 2008 as a trainer, coach and author of leadership and communication is:
"Every single element of a course must create value for your and be ready to be implemented easily"
This means for you:
1) You'll learn methods and tips you can immediately implement
2) You'll have step-by-step instructions available, so you'll know exactly what you need to do to be successful
3) All content is designed to give you maximum results with the least effort possible. I won't waste your time with "bla bla"
4) You can always contact me directly to answer questions, share suggestions and criticisms.
My background:
Since 2008, I am working with executives and entrepreneurs from over 30 countries, advising, coaching and training them to become better leaders.
This includes (sorry, only released in German) publishing the book "Management Practice for Engineers and IT Experts" (Original title: "Führungspraxis für Ingenieure und IT-Experten"), published by Springer Verlag.
I only teach what I use myself and know from practical application: I set goals using OKR, I help clients achieve their goals with OKR and I train leaders in leading their teams with OKR - because I truly believe in this concept.
Prior to working as a coach I was an entrepreneur in the IT industry for 15 years, and also spend some time as a manager at Accenture and mid-sized companies.
I was born, raised, and started by business in Germany, before I moved to Cape Town in 2008. I am an avid Ultra Marathon runner and you can see me on the roads and trails of almost all the cities I travel to - while my favourite will always be running along Table Mountain.
You, my students on Udemy, can always reach out to me via the Udemy platform and I am happy to answer your questions.
Receiving your feedback helps me to improve my courses and to work on the topics you are dealing with. So just drop me a line if you have a request or a question.
