In November each year Thought Partners, Wellington-based consulting company, hosts one-day OD Forum for leaders, organisational development/HR professionals and academics to share and develop practice.
On 10 November, this year’s Forum showcases examples of how we’re ‘finding our own way’ to work effectively with change and complexity, and implement initiatives that last the distance and make difference. It also includes looking to our own indigenous models and not discounting the past as guide to the future. As the saying goes “Titiro whakamuri, kia anga whakamua” – the future is behind us.
The Forum has been designed for experienced leaders and practitioners and will also provide opportunities for those new to organisational development to listen, participate and learn.
Keynote speakers are Maori Television’s Jim Mather and Russ Gaskin, consultant with Washington DC based CoCreative Consulting. Gaskin will discuss the concept of polarity management, and Mather will share insights into how an indigenous perspective provides different options for organisational development.
