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


My friend Julian Burton has just created an online version of his current exhibtion at the LSE The Art of Complexity.

It’s a delightful exhibition showing Julian’s unusual perspective on organisational change. In his work he has sat through more change management jargon than most, and his pictures – amongst other things – capture the limitations of much that is said about how to lead organisations.

What Julian’s art does is capture a more human truth about what it can be like to work in organisation, which can often be a prompt to more honest and authentic conversation – a far more valuable contribution to change than any amount of management-speak. You can find out more about the exhibition here.

In praise of um… er….. deeper meaning

Once again, it turns out that what we do naturally has more value than we realise; whereas clever contrivances intended to “improve” our effectiveness often just destroy significance… and make us less well understood! A good lesson for all those presentation trainers and “image consultants” out there!
