Develop an Innovation Mindset

The Changemaker's Toolkit is a series of live online courses that build your changemaking ability step by step, from innovative thinking to collaborative teams, co-creation and community leadership. This course - Develop an Innovation Mindset - is the first course in the series.

Why this course matters...

Work isn't working. Systems feel rigged. And we know how it feels when you’re trying to make things better but the system just won’t budge.

Whether you’re leading a project, building a team or rethinking how you work, this course gives you the mindset and tools to turn that stuckness into progress.

Turn frustration into fuel.

Learn to think differently and create real change with confidence.

You’ve tried to shift things in your workplace, your community or your team. You’ve pushed, persuaded and still hit the wall.

This live, small-group course helps you move past the frustration. Whether you’re leading a project, rethinking how your organisation works or simply trying to make progress in messy systems, you’ll discover practical ways to turn ideas into action.
