Collaborative Change – Is this a once in a generation opportunity for Facilitators? with Greg Jenkins | Monday September 12, 5.30pm


Collaboration is the word on everyone’s lips as it seems that collaboration is a desired ingredient in current business, government and social change initiatives. Collaboration is the key trend in change for the foreseeable future and along with climate change is one of the great challenges of our time.

According to change guru John Kotter, Change Management doesn’t work 80% of the time. If this is so there is huge potential in filling this yawning gap. Is this the once in a generation big break for facilitators?

In this session we will explore the following big questions and more

· What is collaborative change?

· What are the opportunities for facilitators?

· What skills are required of collaborative change agents?

· What roles make collaborative change really work?

· What tools are required to facilitate grassroots initiated collaborative change?

Who should come? Change agents, facilitators, project leaders, strategists and anyone planning or implementing collaborative change.

Facilitator: Greg Jenkins is a practicing change agent, facilitator and mentor and with more than a decade experience in facilitating collaborative change. Greg is coordinator of the Sydney Facilitators Network. www.tincanlearning.com, www.changeagent.com.au.
