A major tenant of Edward’s change process is that change happens at the individual level. His proven approach combines established improvement methodologies with the latest research in neuroscience and organizational development, building a behavioral model that reinforces and locks-in the enhanced process. Once the key behaviors are identified from the model, they can be reinforced through coaching and feedback to assist the individual through their personal change process. “Lasting change happens with people, not to people.”
