Edges of Work

I’m Johnnie Moore, and I help people work better together

Viv and I will be offering a new workshop in a couple of weeks in Melbourne. It’s part of the preconference day for Andrew Rixon’s Creative Methods story conference.

We’re calling it Exploring the Edges of Work and it’s based on a lot of conversations we’ve had over the past year reflecting on work we’ve done together in various exotic places from Bangkok to the Solomon Islands. Working across cultures has taken us to our own learning edges and we’ll be sharing some of the insight we’ve had along the way. Here’s a snippet from the blurb:

Change happens at the edge: we see it in systems and in our own lives. At the edge, we are away from the routine and familiar: it’s exciting but scary territory, but it’s where new patterns and routines can emerge. How can we support people in staying in the space at least long enough for useful change?

I think it’s going to be a fun day and if you happen to be in that part of the world, we’d love to see you.

See what happens

I’ve just read Dave Snowden’s summary about managing complex problems. It reminds me of the principles of Improv. These are fresh in my mind from the Banff conference last week.
