Session Outline

4 Live Workshops + AQ Assessment + Individual Work

Before the course begins each participant completes an online assessment to measure their Adaptability Quotient (AQ). This provides detailed insights into your current Abilities, Character, and Environment, and sheds light on how and when you adapt to change at work.

1: Our first session is a wake-up call to the change happening in front of us and all around us, including a discussion about the changes affecting the advertising industry and your company. This uncovers the need for adaptability and what it means and looks like in the workplace. We’ll also dive into the A.C.E. Model of Adaptability and understand the science behind it.

2-4: Over the next 3 sessions, we’ll deep dive into three dimensions of adaptability: Grit, Hope, and Unlearn. Along with research and theory, we’ll share experiences, habits, and routines focused on strengthening each dimension.

In the final group session, we’ll also tie the AQ dimensions together, prioritize your key actions, and establish accountability measures for leaning into change.

In today's fast paced world, our agency faces disruption on an on-going basis from new technologies, new applications, economic shifts and workplace issues. What's more is that our clients are going through the same challenges. Working with Ann and using the AQ Assessment helped me to identify key areas to strengthen so I can lean into all this change and be a better leader

CEO, Kings Crest Global

The session you provided allowed us to take a serious look as to how we’re approaching our business given the immense change to both our company and our world. Covid acted as a catalyst that required us to re-examine our mindset, behaviors and culture...Your AQai session and debrief established a call for action to confront the question “What is our culture” and how do respond to the seismic shift in workplace values? The AQai is a very unique, insightful and useful tool that helped us to identify potential obstacles in our mindset while also providing ways to explore and transform our team! I cannot thank you enough and look forward to the follow-up sessions as we turn the data into actionable enhancements. Thank you again and I look forward to your continued assistance in evolving my team to change adept champions!"
