Navigating Change in 2026 Masterclass

2026 isn’t waiting for anyone. New priorities. New tech. New expectations. And the same reality we’ve all felt in our bones: change doesn’t fail because the plan was wrong, it fails when people don’t have the skills to carry it through.

That’s why this masterclass is built around a simple truth: navigating change is a skill you can build.

In this session, we’ll use the C2IQ Human Risk Intelligence assessment and framework to help you strengthen leadership across two of today’s most critical dimensions:

• Change Resilience: your ability to stay steady, flexible, and forward-focused when things are uncertain or in transition.
• Human Connection: how you communicate, build trust, and create belonging while everything is moving.

C2IQ was designed to measure the change resilience and human connection skills critical for transformation and to make “human risk” as trackable as financial risk, so teams can fix fractures before performance breaks.

The bonus that makes this a no-brainer (Members only)

✅ EX Leadership Network Members can take the C2IQ Assessment for FREE as a bonus to membership.

This assessment is typically reserved for organizational clients at $290 per person (that’s over half the cost of membership, delivered back to you as immediate value). You’ll receive personalized insights on strengths + growth areas, with practical best practices and guidance you can actually use.

What we’ll do in the masterclass

This is not a “talk at you” session. It’s a benchmark + training + playbook + peer lab.

1) Assess what matters (and name what’s been fuzzy)

C2IQ helps break “navigating change” into tangible capability areas, including...

• Change Resilience like problem-solving confidence, emotional regulation, adaptability, optimism, persistence, and change literacy/personal agency… and...
• Human Connection like social warmth, empathy/listening, conversation engagement, psychological safety, and inclusion (awareness + action).

2) See the benchmarks

We’ll share industry benchmarks and patterns we’re seeing across leaders, so you can calibrate:

• What “strong” looks like right now
• Where leaders are commonly getting stuck
• Which gaps tend to derail change efforts first

3) Train the skill, not the theory

You’ll learn the core elements of Change Resilience + Human Connection and how to strengthen them in real work moments:

• When the plan changes mid-flight
• When trust is thin
• When morale is wobbly
• When communication becomes the make-or-break lever

4) Peer breakouts: turn insight into plays

You’ll spend time in breakouts and group discussions to pressure-test actionable strategies, share what’s working, and walk away with plays you can deploy immediately.

What you’ll walk away with

By the end, you’ll have:

• A clear understanding of the skill components behind navigating change (not just “be resilient”)
• Your personal development opportunities (so you stop guessing and start targeting growth)
• A practical 2026 playbook for leading through uncertainty with steadiness + trust
• Peer-tested strategies for building resilience and connection inside your team
• Momentum: a plan to thrive through change, not suffer through it
