Organizational Evolution Management Program - Starter
​

The Story
​Technology, culture, and identity are undergoing a revolution these days. As organisations are forced to adapt and evolve in this new context, the "Teal Organisation" is becoming quite popular. It is not surprising many ‘’fail’’ considering what a monumental shift needs to happen, almost simultaneously. The struggle becomes real as groups underestimate the depth of change needed and decide to ''go Teal'' without any clear strategy.

The Workshop
During the afternoon, you will get an overview to the necessary skills to expand and manage your own evolutionary process within the organisation and taste how you can navigate the unknown with pathways or proven tools, to transform your organisation into a place of creativity, passion, and purpose.

This 'starter' is the first step to prepare the individual with the awareness that this is a real possibility for individual skills and capacity in order to provide the organisation with the agency to stretch and manage its own evolutionary space. This space awakens the perception of: ‘what’s going on here, where is it leading to and why is it happening?’

This program run as a three-part training series developed upon a Person-Group-System (PGS) levels approach and we use a methodology that is constructed out of Three pillars:

  • Awareness: Individual Self vs Organisation Self (Attitude and Motivation; Responsibility: choosing, declaring and asking; Centering, Saying Yes and saying No; etc)
  • Group Dynamics & Organisational Continuum (Power, Rank and Violence; Legitimacy, Authority and Consent; Forging Trust and community in the fire of Conflict; etc)
  • The Field (Organisational Purpose; Governance Tools; Multi-stakeholder negotiations; etc.)
