Expert Pod

Find Your Compass Expert Pod — with Elaine Hendrick from Elaine Hendrick Consulting Pty Ltd — Session 1

· Online

Thursday 1 October · 1:00 pm–2:15 pm (Melbourne time)

Looking for tailored support to start connecting your work to the Global Goals and map the outcomes you want to create for your customers? This expert pod is for you!

Join Elaine Hendrick, Principal Consultant at Elaine Hendrick Consulting Pty Ltd for this 2-part, small-group pod designed to help you go from idea to action.

By the end of these workshops you will have an Impact Journey Map — a table connecting the identified Global Goal, the outcomes you create, and the day-to-day activities that produce them, ready to refine over time.

Who is this Pod best for?

Best suited to members with an established business and a clear offer or service — outcomes and activities are hard to map without one. If you haven’t defined your offer yet, the Product Design pod (The Packaging Blueprint) is the better starting point before this one.

Note: Expert Pods happen on the first and third Thursdays of the month, at the same time for both sessions.

What to expect from Session 1

1\. Locate where your work actually creates change — your primary impact pathway

2\. Identify the one UN Global Goal that connects most naturally to your work

3\. Draft 2–3 concrete community outcomes you want to create for the people your work touches

What to expect from Session 2

1\. Trace how your core business activities contribute to your desired community outcomes.

2\. See how your Global Goal, community outcomes and core business activities connect as one coherent picture.

3\. Leave with a clear Impact Journey Map that you can continue to refine after the session.

Between sessions

Virtual Coworking sessions are available for those interested in accountability support. Hosted on the 3rd Thursday of the month, 10:30am - 12pm AEST, see your Slack channel for details and the link to add the reminder to your calendar.

What's an Impact Collab Expert Pod?

Expert Pods are two-part, small group mentoring sessions, designed to help founders and organisational leaders build better systems for business, impact and/or wellbeing.

Facilitated by an Expert member from the Impact Collab, they are intimate, interactive, and personalised to your unique challenges, creating an environment for tailored advice, actionable feedback, accountability and growth.

How do they work?

Hosted during a single month, the pods are run as 2 x 1-hour online workshops, two weeks apart. The Workshops are interactive, with lots of Q&A, live feedback, and direct, tailored support.

At the end of Workshop 1, participants set a list of items to action or exercise. In Workshop 2, these items are reviewed, additional feedback is given, and next steps are provided. This is by far one of our most valuable knowledge and relationship-building programs in the community.

And the best part… it’s included in the Impact Collab membership with first time visitor guest passes available for just $5!

Cancellations and No Shows

Seats in the pods are extremely limited and our experts’ time is highly valuable so our cancellation policy is designed to reflect this.

If you are unable to attend your expert pod please email yaama@impactcollab.com.au as soon as possible to increase our chances of filling your seat.

  • If there are more than 7+ days until Workshop 1 your ticket will be re-released. No further action is needed and cancellation fees will not apply.
  • If there are less than 7 days until workshop 1, we will check the waitlist to see if we can find a replacement for your seat and best efforts will be made to fill your seat. If a replacement cannot be found, the following cancellation fees will apply. Both Sessions\: $30\ | ​​​​​Session 2 only: $15.
  • You may also opt in for a $75, 30-min make up session for the following circumstances:
  1. If you’ve missed session 1 to be able to join session 2
  2. If you’ve only missed session 2

\* Due to the private nature of the Expert Pods they will not be recorded. If you cannot attend session 1 then session 2 will be automatically forfeited if you do not do a makeup session.

Can’t make the pod dates, but would still like to work with the Expert 1:1?
