Implementing Cross Boundary Change

Implementing Cross Boundary Change (BXL611)

Synopsis

In this course, learners will review their proposal developed in GCLBX. Once necessary approvals from relevant stakeholders have been obtained they will implement the proposal over the period of two courses. Online and physical face-to-face dialogue and feedback from peers and mentor will be a constant feature of implementation. Learners will keep a reflexive account of the implementation process which will provide information and data for their write up of the implementation. This write up, along with short written feedback from selected stakeholders, will form the basis of assessment.
