Workshops
As described in the book Agendashift: Outcome-oriented change and continuous transformation (2nd edition 2021) and resourced through the Agendashift partner programme, three transformation strategy workshops:
- Core Agendashift: Facilitating Outcome-Oriented Change
- Applied Agendashift: Co-Creating Your Transformation Strategy
- Agendashift Deep Dive: Coaching and Leading Continuous Transformation
Two outside-in (customer/environment-first) strategy workshops leveraging the outside-in strategy review as described in Right to Left: The digital leader’s guide to Lean and Agile:
- Impact! Story, Strategy, and Outcomes for Products and Services
- Wholehearted:OKR – Integrating strategy, development, and delivery
And a growing portfolio of shorter training workshops – one or two sessions of up to 2½ hours. They're listed below in the order that their corresponding sessions appear in the Deep Dive workshop but they’re all standalone and can be taken in any order:
- Leading with Outcomes – IdOO!
- Strategic Mapping with Outcomes
- Probe! Outcomes, Stories, and Experiments
- Implementing your Outside-in Service Delivery Review (OI-SDR)
Facilitated by an Agendashift partner, workshops are run both publicly and privately. Other workshops based on our tools and materials:
- Outside-in strategy reviews, service delivery reviews, etc
- Training workshops, based on (for example) our simulation games Changeban or Featureban

Paid membership
The full range of assessment templates, no limits on survey size, a license to use our workshop materials, and an optional listing in our partner directory.
Free trial
For free, use the mini versions of our assessment tools for use with individuals or small groups. Templates in seven languages.
Assessments
The Agendashift Delivery Assessment in particular – the one introduced in chapter 2 of the book – is for many people their first experience of Agendashift; it sets the tone for what follows, and we take it very seriously! Unlike the vast majority of assessment tools – prescriptive, practice-centric, and therefore disappointing and frustrating to their respondents – ours is outcome-oriented and framework-agnostic by design, helping you quickly build agreement on outcomes, a legimate and powerful basis for change.
Experience this and related assessments in one of three ways:
Survey
Get a taste by participating in our global survey, which uses the ‘mini’ (18-prompt) version of our flagship assessment, the Agendashift Delivery Assessment.
Free trial
Administer your own team surveys for up to 10 participants per survey with a selection of our ‘mini’ (18-prompt) edition assessment templates.
Full access
Together with several other benefits, partners have access to the full range of assessment temnplate and may conduct surveys of unlimited size.
For our workshops, the assessment is typically distributed as prework a few days in advance or completed through a series of one-to-one conversations. Survey results may be debriefed via a clicker-friendly web report, printed for group work, or distributed as a PDF.
