Sydney Facilitators Network: June 2013

“Why do exceptional change agents succeed against the odds?” with Alastair Rylatt | Monday June 17, 5.30 pm

Why do some leaders and managers succeed against the odds to facilitate and influence change? There are many theories and viewpoints but there is little guidance on what distinguishes low from high performing change agents. Findings from my PHD of individual commitment over time provide some vital clues. Come along and participate in a session designed to develop and enhance your skills in leading and managing change. Be informed, inspired and entertained.

About Facilitators Network:

The Facilitators Network was established in 1992 by Richard and Maria Maguire. The network is a self-organising Community of Practice with more than 700 subscribers and is run by a small core group. There is no formal membership – everyone is welcome. There is a closed email list from which we send meeting reminders once per month. Meetings are experiential. They attract between 25 and 40 participants including independent facilitators, trainers and consultants, volunteers and those employed in business, public sector, not for profits and the community sector. A donation of $5 per participant covers outgoings.
