The Transformation^® Game

The Original Version of The Transformation Game^® differs from the box game that you may know in that it is more complex and multi-levelled. Centred around a circular board symbolising each player’s world, the Game offers a playful yet substantial way of understanding and transforming key life issues.

As you move along your ‘life path’, exploring your intention on seven levels, you gain wider perspectives on your particular patterns and attitudes, recognise your strengths, review and resolve challenges, and explore new possibilities. Many of the squares and cards require you to exercise initiative and imagination, to share on a deeply personal level and to make your own choices and decisions – just like life!

With two skilled guides and only five players this is a wonderful opportunity to receive a high degree of masterful attention and make a quantum leap into greater wholeness. This workshop is a powerful springboard for spiritual growth and development that is valuable at any stage of your life journey.

This experience can last from 4 until 7 days.

The Advanced version is conducted by an InnerLinks Accredited Facilitator who has been trained to apply the rules of the advanced manual, promoting a deeper experience with the participants. It can be experienced from 2 to 6 players.

In this version each player will create 2 Purposes (purpose to receive and purpose to give) and this experience can last from 5 to 20 hours, according to the number of participants.

Only an InnerLinks Accredited Facilitator can apply the Solo Version (for 1 player) with the appropriate rules in the Advanced Manual.

This version charts an individual path, providing clarity on the personal issue and discovering the resources needed to move forward with clear vision and greater knowledge.

The duration of a Solo Version Game lasts from 3 to 5 hours with an Accredited Facilitator.

The Frameworks Coaching Process (FCP) is a simple and valuable method for creatively exploring innovative solutions to challenging situations in the workplace. This revolutionary coaching tool allows you to work with clients in a quick, deep, and impactful way.

You can use the FCP to help your clients:

• Learn how to apply intuition to their decision-making process
• Discover new strategies to solve persistent problems
• Examine beliefs and identify values
• Generate creative individual and group solutions
• Improve team communications and collaboration
• Build on individual and organizational strengths and values
• Manage difficult changes and challenges
• Learn ways to sustain individual and organizational performance improvement
• Realize the benefits of personal accountability
• Align individual and group values
• Accelerate the creative process for bringing ideas to market
• Shorten the cycle for generating new streams of revenue

We live in a time of unprecedented change. In order to navigate rapid changes successfully, we need to shift focus from the difficulties generated by change to the solutions we are able to create and the new directions we are willing to implement.

Intuition is everyone’s natural gift; a powerful resource that assimilates data beyond our logic for greater creative decision-making. In a culture that stresses the importance of analytical thinking, people sometimes forget that they have this inner source of wisdom and insight. Whether searching for solutions, looking for new directions, or seeking clarity of vision, the FCP will help your clients reevaluate and reframe their decision making process to include their intuitive sense.

In a group setting the FCP provides a creative forum for teams to take a closer look at current challenges, generate solutions for implementing constructive change, and explore new ways of moving forward. The process rapidly identifies cognitive, behavioral, or attitudinal factors that are promoting or impeding team progress. The method encourages individuals to communicate clearly and directly, practice active listening skills, and develop tolerance, respect, and empathy for one another. It reinforces important personal values and encourages teams to model them in their workplace.

The FCP, originated by Kathy Tyler and Joy Drake of InnerLinks Associates, consists of three sets of cards designed to uncover and pinpoint key factors and resources impacting the client’s view of any issue. Clients randomly choose cards with a clearly framed intent. The FCP instantaneously identifies underlying dynamics and stimulates their intuitive capabilities revealing creative solutions.

Developed originally as part of the Frameworks for Change simulation, the FCP is a stand-alone coaching tool you can use with individual clients or in small groups. While the FCP cannot make the changes for clients, it can support them in expressing their creativity, imagination, and power to make choices that will help them achieve their desired outcome. Clients gain immediate insight, encouraging them to make decisions in harmony with their values and integrity. They can then develop an action plan to improve their effectiveness, productivity, and satisfaction.

InnerLinks Associates offers certification training in the Frameworks Coaching Process for coaches, consultants, trainers, leaders, and professionals who want to expand their facilitation, tools, and skills using this model. The training covers step-by-step instructions for using the FCP with clients and explores a variety of applications.

Frameworks for Change is a versatile, multi-purpose simulation that assists teams in getting to the root of unresolved business issues. It provides a creative and supportive setting in which individuals can examine their responses to their working environments and reshape non-productive attitudes into opportunities for clarification, commitment, and higher levels of performance. The Frameworks process works with participants to maximize the result of any project.

Participants start by describing goals that activate the growth potential of their team. During the game they receive instant, precise, and impartial feedback in their team settings allowing them to build new behavioral models in real time and refine them successfully by applying ‘course corrections’ as required. This approach gives individuals a unique insight into their influence and interdependence on others, as well as the extent of their involvement, flexibility and contribution in a group.

Frameworks for Change quickly identifies key factors that promote or limit progress of individuals, their team, or the organization. Valuable talents can be enhanced and areas of weakness reduced as participants discover constructive ways to clear obstacles and reach their goals.

As a training tool Frameworks for Change^® Seminar provides:

• thorough assessment of underlying issues impacting team dynamics and the organization as a whole.
• realizations of untapped capacities for growth and development.
• balanced pictures of individual, team, and organizational strengths and weaknesses.
• road maps to transform limiting attitudes and behaviors.
• closer alignment of personal values, team vision, and day to day work.
• improved working atmosphere: increased trust, respect, and cooperation.

Every square on the Frameworks ‘Work Track’ initiates a sequence of dialogue and activity providing participants with first-hand opportunities to learn about the complexities of team building. The text of the Frameworks for Change cards target a wide range of issues and stimulate personal reflection and conversation, helping participants to re-evaluate their assumptions and expectations and move forward with greater clarity and effectiveness.

Frameworks for Change provides a lively platform for in-depth team interaction. The fast moving, exciting, and open-ended structure keeps participants engaged and interested, stimulates discussion, and facilitates the learning process. Participants work in small groups and pairs, and also receive individual coaching from skilled facilitators accredited by InnerLinks Associates.

In this special version of The Transformation Game^® we have just one player (rotating, with a volunteer player chosen from a bowl of names at the start of each turn), one path in the centre of the room, one purpose, and one scorecard, so collectively we move as a group, with people also engaging with many of the cards and processes both individually and in small breakout buddy groups.

The Global Transformation Game can be played online with more than 40 people with a duration from 4 to 7 days.

The Planetary Game is an expanded original version of the Transformation Game^® that allows more than 100 participants to experience this collective experience, lasting 7 days.

It is a sacred theater that provides a multidimensional environment where matters of personal and planetary interest are worked to be seen with clarity and, therefore, bringing insight and healing, serving as an anchor for renewed hope and a new vision of life.
