The art of creating great transformational experiences
If you are a trainer, a speaker, a consultant, a communicator, a writer, a coach you are in the business of creating transformational experiences, TEX as we call it. You are taking a person, a team, an organisation from one place to another, through a change process.
And for that transformation to be successful a number of things have to be in place.
Sometimes as creators of transform we get stuck. Something isn’t clicking, it’s not delivering, it’s not connecting - so you need a rethink, some space to step back and reset.
If it’s starting something new, then you follow the wheel around from Audience to Connection.
If it’s feeling stuck, and you are unsure what’s not working, you take some time to reflect on the sticking point, and you restart there.
The three parts of TEX
There are 3 parts involved in delivering great transformational experiences, whether as a supplier or in-house, creayer or curator.
-
Approach what you are creating as a product development. Apply the thinking of understanding your audience first, the content next, and how you deliver it.
-
You have to be in tune with your work. Our energy shows itself. If we aren’t aligned, we arent feeling it, then thats what you focus on. You can have the best product in the world, but if you aren’t feeling it, it wont connect.
-
Whatever it is you are creating, you are going to have communicate it to the audience. Whether they have to attend, they choose to attend, they pay to attend - they need the ‘so what’ to be strong for it to be a success. Effortless marketing is where you love talking about what you do, and you have interesting things to say it about.
From years of studying change, human behaviour, successful transformation, unsuccessful transformation, the TEX Wheel aims to simplify and quickly target the bits that are getting in the way of delivering great experiences. It is designed to provoke rethinking, challenge yourself and create amazing experiences that you get known for and ultimately get you recommended.

But this isn’t a work from ‘the start to the end’ kind of course. This is start where you are, navigate around the wheel, and keep using the tools to think about what will help you keep progressing and growing.
