Transformational leadership | fourangles film coaching Method

Experiencing transformation instead of explaining it

Transformations in organizations often encounter uncertainty, resistance, and emotional barriers. Traditional approaches to change are often insufficient to make these profound processes effective in the long term. Fourangles® FilmCoaching offers a novel, experience-oriented approach to change: it uses the power of film to make change tangible, motivating, and participatory.
fourangles FilmCoaching is more than a film – it is a collective learning and design process. Transformation is not explained, but played out, seen, felt – and thus internalized.

What is fourangles FilmCoaching?

Film coaching is not a traditional documentary, but rather a staged, participatory process. The participants play themselves—and, at the same time, the transformation. This creates two levels:

 

  • First reality: the actual transformation with all its challenges.
  • Second reality: the story staged for film, in which the participants reflect on and shape their own experiences of change

The methodological structure

  • Storytelling & script development: The transformation becomes a narrative. Together with the team, a script is created that highlights key conflicts, opportunities, and goals.
  • Staging: The participants act in the film. This requires self-reflection, opens up emotional access and promotes responsibility.
  • Meta-level through the camera: The view through the camera creates distance from reality. Emotions are classified and conflicts defused.
  • Coaching support: Reflection and feedback loops ensure personal development and the effectiveness of the overall process.
