    PNODN Workshop - Accountability as Relational Practice

           

       Verhanika Willhelm


    Join us on February 10 from 5-7 PM PT for a session with our own Verhanika Willhelm

    In this workshop, organizational development practitioners will learn to redefine accountability not as a punitive measure, but as a relational practice that builds trust and fosters connection. Through a mix of reflection and practical exercises, participants will explore how cultural narratives about accountability—shaped by systems of oppression—can damage relationships and limit growth. They’ll also engage in an exercise to develop scripts for holding themselves and others accountable in ways that prioritize empathy and repair harm, not punishment.

    Learning Objectives for this Session

    • Re-frame Accountability as Relational Practice: Understand that accountability is about staying in relationship and maintaining trust, rather than using it as a tool for control or punishment. 
    • Examine Cultural Narratives and Harmful Practices of Accountability: Explore how cultural stories around accountability, rooted in systems of oppression, have shaped harmful approaches to responsibility in the workplace. 
    • Develop Scripts for Accountable Conversations in Personal and Professional Relationships: Engage in an exercise to practice creating scripts for accountability conversations, focusing on past instances where you were held accountable in harmful ways and learning to re-frame those situations with care and clarity.

    Partnership Series - Breakfast with Dave Snowden

                               








    Dave Snowden

    In February, PNODN and CBODN are excited to host Dave Snowden and his session entitled "From Inner/Outer to Entanglement".

    Dave Snowden is the Founder and Chief Scientific Officer of The Cynefin Co. and Director of the Cynefin Centre for Applied Complexity.  His international work covers government and industry, looking at complex strategic, organizational, and decision-making issues.  He has pioneered a science-based approach, drawing on anthropology, the cognitive sciences, and complex adaptive systems theory.  This approach, known as naturalizing sense-making, has been acknowledged as one of five distinct schools of sense-making.

    He is a popular and passionate keynote speaker on various subjects and is well known for his pragmatic cynicism and iconoclastic style. He is a passionate advocate for recognizing the value of human capabilities in decision-making, particularly the differences between the embodied, extended, and enacted capabilities of human communities to make sense of the world and the inference models used by machine processing. 

    He is the principal author of a joint publication between the Cynefin Centre and the Future Systems Directorate of the European Union: ' Managing complexity (and chaos) in times of crisis—a field guide for decision-makers.’  A review by Durham University identified him as one of the leaders in applying complexity science or organizations.

    He has created many methods and frameworks, including the Cynefin Framework.  His paper with Boone on Cynefin and Leadership was the cover article for the Harvard Business Review in November 2007. He also won the Academy of Management award for the best practitioner paper in the same year. He was an Editor-in-chief of E:CO, one of the first journals to cover applied complexity science. In 2006, he was Director of the EPSRC (UK) research program on emergence and, in 2007, was appointed to an NSF (US) review panel on complexity science research.  In 2023, he received an award from Hull University for his "Outstanding Contribution to Systems Thinking".

    He is the principal designer of the SenseMaker® software suite, developed initially in counter-terrorism and now actively deployed in both Government and Industry to handle issues of impact measurement, citizen engagement, attitudinal measurement, customer/employee insight, narrative-based knowledge management, strategic foresight and risk management.  

    In 2004 he created Cognitive Edge, now known as Cynefin, which integrates academic thinking with practice in organizations worldwide and operates on a network model that works with academics, governments, commercial organizations, NGOs, and independent consultants.

    Learning Objectives for this Session

    1. Learn how to bring complexity into your management and leadership decision making.

    2. Be able to understand the basics of Cynefin.

    3. Add another tool to your systems thinking toolbelt!

                                    Eliot Johnson


    Join us on March 17 from 4 - 6 PM PT for a session with Eliot Johnson

    In this workshop, we will explore the transformative power of fostering a Culture of Growth within organizations, focusing on its profound impact on the employee experience and institutional success. Grounded in research and practical insights, the session begins by unpacking the core principles of growth mindset theory—emphasizing that intelligence and abilities are not fixed but can be developed through effort, perseverance, and effective strategies. Attendees will gain a deeper understanding of how their organization’s policies and norms often inadvertently perpetuate fixed mindset beliefs and how this can hinder organizational performance. The workshop will offer actionable strategies for embedding growth mindset principles into your everyday practice as a culture creator. We’ll discuss the pivotal role of culture creators in modeling growth minded behaviors and fostering an environment where organizational learning is valued and prioritized, and discuss how investing in creating a Culture of Growth lead to stronger collaboration, innovation, risk taking and resilience, integrity and ethics, and diversity, equity, and inclusion. Finally, the session will focus on the long-term benefits of cultivating a Culture of Growth, including increased engagement, motivation, and adaptability among employees, from individual contributors to executive leaders. Drawing on case studies and success stori

    Learning Objectives for this Session
