Welcome to change.CO LAB 2025
This program brings together 23 years of consulting experience. As professional coaches,
leadership consultants and CO LAB changemakers, we have never been more excited about a leadership program. We have brought together the most talented and experienced, not to mention generous, consultants from our global network to share their skills and expertise. We have also gathered the most inspiring CO LAB changemakers we have had the privilege of knowing to share their personal and professional stories with you.
WHY ARE YOU HERE?
We recognise your aspirations to make a positive contribution to our world and our Team and our Collaborators genuinely want to provide you with the support, guidance and tools to achieve this.
Please Note:
Every effort has been made to provide ample time for you to book into each session. We will have minimal flexibility in our program schedule and we would be very grateful if you could please lock in every session in the program. With coaching sessions you can swap times with another participant but the workshops and story telling sessions we plan to lock in. We expect that you will attend 100% of the sessions provided. Every person contributing to this program is giving their time pro bono because they are both generous and believe in what we are looking to achieve in the program.
what’s in store for 2025?
Launch
Petruc.co Team Welcome to the program for participants. Introduction to the Petruc.co Team and the overview of the program. An opportunity for participants to meet other participants in the program.
Storytelling & Coaching Circles
An informal session where experienced changemaking leaders share their personal and career story with the Co.Lab participants. Designed to be a session where leaders share a little vulnerability of the highs and lows of their story and is an opportunity for Co.Lab leaders to ask questions and draw from the storyteller experience that would be useful and valuable. Hosted by the Co.Lab Alumni there is an opportunity for small group coaching circles to dive deeper into learning opportunities and drawing from the wisdom of the group.
Workshops
Each workshop has been designed to explore key elements of leadership and changemaking in an engaging and practical way. The workshops are an opportunity to be informed with content and theory and then engage with facilitators and colleagues on how to best apply what your learning in practice.
Sponsor Meeting
After each workshop the Petruc.co team will provide a communication to participants and sponsors with a summary of the workshop content with post workshop questions and activities for the Co.Lab leader to use in their catch ups with their sponsor. We expect these sessions to be integrated into 1:1 catch ups already established or leaders could create an additional space depending on available time and capacity.
Individual Coaching Sessions
These 1:1 sessions (45 mins) are designed as a safe and confidential space for support and challenging. Co.Lab leaders are encouraged to bring into their coaching topics of interest, opportunities and challenges and reflections on progress. It is an opportunity to dig deeper into performance and development to accelerate growth and learning. Book with Nick.
Final Workshop
This is our program graduation where participants have the opportunity to share their experience in the program and also for the participants to reflect on the program strengths and opportunities to improve. It is an informal and positive end to the program.
