Topic: Mini-workshop: Immunity to Change Date: Monday, January 30th Place: Greenwood Library 8016 Greenwood Ave. N., Seattle Metro Bus Rt: 5, 48, 35 Time: 6:00-8:00pm (Join us for social time at 5:30pm) Admission: Free Many of us make a new year's resolution and miserably fail. IONS presented a teleseminar, "Immunity to Change" by Robert Kegan and Lisa Lahey in 2009; one of the most original and brilliant approaches to a personal and organizational change. Anne Sweeney, President of Disney-ABC Television Group, writes about their book: "A recent study showed that when doctors tell heart patients they will die if they don't change their habits, only one in seven will be able to follow through successfully. Desire and motivation aren't enough: even when it's literally a matter of life or death, the ability to change remains maddeningly elusive... Kegan and Lahey examine why change is so hard and offer innovative, practical insight to overcome the internal and external obstacles and to meet the challenge of change." We are going to listen to the audio recording of the 2009 IONS teleseminar together. The format is more like an experiential workshop, rather than a lecture. Bring a notebook and pen. This could transform your life! |
