“Wildcard” – Short processes for fun and energy | Monday July 9, 2012 | 5.30pm

At a 'Wildcard' meeting, volunteer facilitators step-up to run a short session of between 5 and 20 minutes.

Wildcards offer a great way to get a whole range of ideas and tools for working with groups.

It’s also a good opportunity to try something out or share something you have seen work.

 “Wildcards” typically include ice breakers, opening and closing rituals, energisers, thought provokers, experiential activities, games, simulations, conversations, Q&A sessions - anything at all that can be experienced in 5 - 20 minutes.

Sessions are not scheduled in advance. Everything happens on the night including a short debriefing.

Come with either a short process 'in your pocket' or just to have fun.

“Transformational Leadership – Influencing in a time of Fear” with Godwin Vaz | Monday June 18, 2012 | 5.30pm

The sphere of Transformational Leadership is where a leader or transformational change agent facilitates profound and positive shifts in capability, character and results for themselves, others and their organisation. Come and join in this stimulating, interactive and thought-provoking session. We will experience and have a conversation on the following relevant themes: ·       What are the strengths and shortfalls of traditional management and leadership approaches, in our current times – what’s missing for ‘whole system’ repair and health ·       What are the consequences of our ‘outer world dominance’ and the loss of Self Intimacy? ·       Can there be influence without authority or positional power? How and when? ·       Navigating through our leaderless, visionless, fear-based, fast-change world ·       Why the mind (analysis, logic, prediction) is not useful for bigger decisions and profound change (personal and organisational) – the costs of the ‘Enlightenment’ and the feared/rejected gifts of the ‘Endarkenment’ This session will also be useful for Senior Leaders, Transformational Change Agents, Senior Consultants, Visionary Creatives.
