Introduction to the Foundation for Change

The Change Agent: Foundation has 3 interconnected parts (peers of the foundation, if you will) Vision, Framework and Tools. These 3 parts allow you to not just survive all the massive change happening all around us, they help you transform into a person or group that activates, embraces and thrives on change.
The Foundation takes the Information Technology concepts of Change Management and Agile development, mixes in my knowledge of history, economics, yoga, philosophy and business to create this interconnected Foundation.

Vision: Where and how do you as an individual fit into the greater community (Global and Universal)?
There are actually 5 levels of visions ranging from personal to global.
Framework: A guide for the actions needed to take to activate the Vision.
There are 6 steps on the path to realizing your visions. Each step is flexible enough to take into account that there is so much change no one can possibly anticipate it all. The Framework makes heavy use of validated learning techniques developed for Agile.
Tools: Specific techniques and technologies that maintain the Vision and Support the Framework.
There are currently 14 tools. That count will surely change as we progress.

  1. Interesting material Cliff; I look forward to reading more.

    I'd follow your blog but can't for the life of me see a control on this page to do so (maybe you have it disabled?)

  2. I had already chosen the settings that allowed several following options, so I was puzzled. What I FINALLY discovered was that I needed a separate plug-in to enable RSS feeds.
