Cuban Missile Crisis: A Case Study in Decisionmaking, The
#AKI-CUBAN
25 minutes
Sale: $795.00
Rental: $225.00

How should organizations reach decisions that successfully impact their enterprise? What elements are essential in surfacing the best decision a team can make?

Management experts consider the Cuban Missile Crisis on of the most successful decision making processes in history. In 13 pressure-packed days, President Kennedy's Executive Committee debated and successfully resolved how to respond to the threat of attack of Soviet controlled nuclear weapons installed in Cuba, a mere 90 miles from the Florida coast.

The Cuban Missile Crisis video is not a history lesson, but an examination of the leadership style and processes that led President Kennedy's Executive Committee not just to a good decision, but to the optimal decision. If the five essential elements of leadership and work processes used during these meetings led to a decision that neutralized the threat of nuclear attack, think of what these elements can do for your organization's decision making teams.

Part 1 - Leading the Change
Part 2 - Making the Change

This quality training program has been designed to promote thinking and discussion in a wide range of work environments, including public and private sector organizations large and small. If a company or agency is facing change processes stemming from technological advances, global competition, downsizing and/or a stronger focus on meeting customer needs, it can benefit from this training resource.

In the old work place, we expected the work we did to stay the same. Change happened when we changed our jobs. In the new work place, we can expect the work we do to continuously change in an ongoing effort to better serve our customers. We participate in a dynamic, never ending process of learning.

The skills we need in the new work place have changed dramatically. The expectations employers and employees have of each other would not be recognizable to our parents. Opportunity competes with fear as our Organizations down-size or transform and we struggle with the new realities and how we fit into them.

This extraordinary 2 Video training series brings together a distinguished collection or practitioners and researchers who are leading private and public sector organizations through these fundamental transformations. CEO's, managers, line workers and consultants discuss why these changes are occurring and how they impact employees and managers alike, sharing their visions of how we can most benefit from the turbulent process we all find ourselves in.

There is no voice of velvet narration here. Just real people speaking directly and clearly to the issues that impact almost all managers and employees today. The various programs sections are tied together by animated folktales, allegories that speak to the same issues but in a more entertaining way. This creative mix of straight talking reality and animation fables makes for a dynamic resource which will help generate meaningful discussion on the changes your organization is facing. If you organization is undergoing important changes, you must see these programs.

Program Contents:
Each of the programs, Making the Change (for all employees) and Leading the Change (for organizational leaders), are divided into major concept themes, and each of the segments are tied together by an animated folktale. With both videos, a distinguished collection of practitioners and researchers - leaders on change - join in conversation with CEO's, managers, line workers and consultants. They share their vision of how we can most benefit from the turbulent process we find ourselves in.

Change breeds fear. The best way to address these fears is to open a dialogue within an organization, admitting to what we know and, more importantly, what we don't know.

Flexible Training
The New Workplace has been designed to the individual training needs of your organization. Each segment of the video can be viewed separately and the suggested questions, exercises and activities in the guide used as part of a facilitation process. If all the material contained in the guide is used with The New Workplace videos, it can constitute a two day training program.

Folktales
One of the unique components of this series is the integration of an animated folktale in each program. These allegories help participants to refocus the discussion and look at their immediate problems and issues differently. The combination of this more abstract approach with the very specific, practical discussions in the program make for a comprehensive training tool.

Included Training Items:
The videos are accompanied by a 46 page Facilitator's Guide. This flexible Guide includes 9 participant handouts, a bibliography, a dictionary of new business terms, activities, exercises and questions for discussion. With the purchase of The New Workplace series, the producer grants you license to make as many copies of the Facilitator's Guide or the handout pages as your organization needs. Comes complete with a Facilitator's Guide and participant handouts.

Tactics of Innovation
#STR-Tactics
22 minutes
Sale: 4895.00
Rental: $200.00

In this landmark video, Joel Barker goes on location to share stories on why people say "no" to new ideas. More importantly, he introduces a ten-step strategy for removing barriers between new ideas and people, who naturally resist change.

These tactics can dramatically increase the acceptance of any kind of idea.

Why is it important to understand Tactics of Innovation? Because "it is natural and logical for people to resist change," says Joel Barker. New ideas upset the sense of balance most of us want, and change makes things difficult. Only by developing the ability to present your idea from the user's point of view will you be able to achieve success introducing your change.

Tactics of Innovation presents an important message for any organization that wishes not only to discover new ideas, but also to bring them into practice. Business, nonprofit, government, education, healthcare and any other groups will find the concepts presented here valuable and relevant.
