Transcending Boundaries: Facilitiating and Managing Complex Systems Change

OVERVIEW:

The challenges and opportunities facing conservation and development increasingly require collaboration amongst diverse stakeholders and the transcending of various organizational boundaries. This realm of “complex systems change” is an ever-increasing area of engagement both in and outside the conservation community. Around the world, complex organizational arrangements are emerging to address economic, environmental and social requirements that cannot be met by a single organization.   

 

This FOUR-DAY (24 hour) experiential training provides participants an opportunity to learn, experience and practice approaches for accelerating complex large systems change.

 

OBJECTIVES:

The purpose of the workshop is to increase the skill and ability of participants to work more effectively in situations of organizational and relationship complexity – transcending traditional boundaries. 

 

Specifically, participants will: 

• Learn practical change models to accelerate results in complex multi-stakeholder conservation efforts.
• Share experiences and explore approaches to change and collaboration.
• Enhance understanding of their own personal orientation to and styles of change, resistance, conflict and collaboration.
• Explore power relationships and how groups differentiate and integrate.
• Develop ways to understand and manage conflict, collaborate and find common ground.
