Oregon ODN Meeting

Glenda Eoyang will be the featured speaker at the Oregon ODN's March meeting:

Change is changing. We’re experiencing a new, uncertain, and emergent world in our diverse practices and lives. Leaders, OD and HR practitioners, front-line service providers, and consultants of all kinds see their best-laid plans interrupted, disrupted, and disintegrated into chaotic messes. The problem is that traditional theory and our habits of practice do not—indeed they cannot—accommodate the new and unpredictable patterns of transformation that we observe.

The rules and competencies of the past were designed to help us play and win a finite game. Today we are playing an infinite game where the rules change constantly, the field is the whole and unbounded system, opponents are partners, learning is a survival skill, and the purpose is not to win, but to ensure that the play continues. The change culture of the future develops adaptive capacity for individuals, leadership teams, and organizations. Adaptive capacity is the ability to see simple patterns in a mess, explore creative options, take courageous action, and look for simple patterns again.

In the field of human systems dynamics, we call this process Adaptive Action. In our time together, you’ll experience the power of self-organizing systems and see the conditions that create, and allow you to influence, chaotic messes for individuals, teams, organizations, and communities. You will engage with others in experiential exercises, small and large group discussion, and shared reflection. You will use what you learn to create an Adaptive Action plan to approach the messiest of your messy issues.
