Who are We?
We are innovative young company based in Sandwich Kent, founded in 2005 by Lindsey Agness who is also the Managing Director. We were a finalist in 2007 as most promising new business in the south east of England and Lindsey herself was a finalist for Entrepreneur of the Year in Kent in 2007 and 2008. Lindsey worked as a change management consultant at PricewaterhouseCoopers for 11 years before establishing The Change Corporation and has worked on large projects all over the world delivering measurable value to clients. At The Change Corporation our objective is to do whatever it takes to assist you to achieve the results you want in your business.

What do we do?
There are three strands to the corporate side of our business. We have also developed an extensive associate programme which means an ability to meet your needs every step of the way:

Change Management and Culture Change Consulting
This can range from strategic advice about implementing and leading a change programme to hands-on change leadership coaching or project management support.

Learning and development solutions
We provide unique training methods and packages. We have designed and delivered large team building events, leadership & management development programmes, customer service and other inter-personal skills interventions. We also offer in house NLP Business Practitioner programmes.

Executive coaching and mentoring
We provide coaching on change leadership challenges, personal gravitas and other performance improvement issues.

We have learned over the years that one of the biggest challenges facing organisations today is delivering long-term change that staff are 100% committed to achieving. We know that traditional approaches often fail to deliver real results. We know that before training or coaching initiatives are launched, there needs to be a real desire to engage.

Our approach uses highly effective tools and techniques, focusing on Neuro Linguistic Programming to create a pull to engage, as opposed to a push to try and deliver. Unlike more traditional training courses, where you are often taught a method or procedure to follow, NLP examines our fundamental thought patterns, behaviours and language that we use, which greatly enhances our ability to improve our performance. NLP is quite simply learning about how what we think, say and do affects our results. NLP gives us fast acting tools and methods to give us more choices about how we create the results that we want. Our goal is to assist you to tap into your true potential and the potential of your staff working together to achieve world-class performance.

We also run public NLP training programmes throughout the South East of England including London, Kent, Sussex and Surrey. This public NLP training business has been growing rapidly over the last three years and so we have decided to separate the web sites in future. Although the two existing arms of the business work incredibly closely with one another, it is our intention to grow them independently in future. Each business has different goals and aspirations and AND shares unity through the collective vision we have.

Why is NLP useful in Business?

We use NLP to assist you to:

• Quickly build strong rapport and solid business relationships
• Reinforce your communication through the use of specific language patterns and embedded commands
• Gain an understanding of the emotional foundation of time management
• Have more effective presentation and public speaking skills
• Learn techniques to inspire, motivate and lead others in the workplace
• Understand invaluable change management tools for anyone involved in project implementation, management or alignment

At a personal level, NLP allows you to experience a greater understanding and flexibility in your confidence, motivation and goal setting, through helping you remove obstacles and blocks in your thought patterns, to influence effective behaviour. It helps you re-programme your thinking to create higher levels of achievement.

What does this mean for Business?

Positive results can be immediately recognised through increased motivation, confidence and skills. It reduces the time spent on piecemeal training, saving money. Longer term benefits include elevated performance and productivity, higher morale and motivation, reduced turnover, lower absenteeism and a higher return on investment.
