Help scale up powerful training to help cross-sector coalitions overcome systemic injustices related to childhood development, education, housing, health and economic equality.
Join Bill Barberg, one of the co-authors of the peer-reviewed article on "Leading Social Transformations: Creating Value and Advancing the Common Good" published in 2021 in the Journal of Change Management, in building out powerful eLearning courses to help bring this game-changing material to coalitions working to address wicked problems facing our world.
This is a flexible project that could be tailored to the interests and skills of the participant or the teams of participants.
The main topic we will be working on involves early childhood development (leveraging cutting-edge brain science), reducing and addressing Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) and building resilience in children and young people. Related to that are efforts to transform the family justice system to reduce messy, adversarial divorces, minimizing domestic and sexual violence, reducing child abuse, and expanding the positive experiences that help children thrive in spite of difficult circumstances.
A growing team of collaborators are building out the ACEs & Resilience Resource Commons for Communities (ARRCC), a platform built using the same technology as Wikipedia. To economically train the many stakeholders around the U.S. and Canada (and beyond) in how to embrace these powerful techniques, Bill is developing a series of eLearning modules and group coaching programs.
This page describes a recent webinar about the aforementioned peer-reviewed article on leading social transformation. It includes many comments from participants and a link to the recording.

DEVELOPING E-LEARNING COURSES
Over the past several years, Bill and his team of consultants and collaborators have done hundreds of hours of webinars, coaching sessions, conference presentations and writing on these techniques and tools. This project is to help refine some of that content to make it easier to consume and understand using cutting-edge content creation and eLearning tools. These videos and web pages give examples.
This 7-minute video introduces the ARRCC: https://vimeo.com/466446981/a8e152dc6d
This 14-minute video is part 1 of a demo: https://vimeo.com/663952922/8e4bd1991d
This 9 minute video is part 2 of that demo: https://vimeo.com/664037880/b947a74e49
The project would also focus on promoting the ARRCC Action Network: https://www.insightformation.com/2022arrccan
Building eLearning content involves getting to learn some of the subject matter (both collaborative strategy management and the topic of ACEs, resilience and such). It also involves working with various technology to create videos, infographics, and other content for the courses. It also involves working with the eLearning platform. We're using Thinkific.
Students could transition into paid contract work after this project.
Bill Barberg will provide mentoring and supervision. Look him up on LinkedIn.
