  A PNODN MOST Series Event featuring Dr. Wendy Fraser

  Repairing Trust at the Organizational Level

  •  Practical strategies for diagnosing and strengthening trust at the organizational level
  •  How leaders can use formal and informal dialogic approaches to respond to trust issues
  •  Lessons from Wendy’s research and her book, Trust Repair: It IS Possible

  Through interactive discussions and case applications, you’ll gain tools to help leaders and teams build resilience and navigate complex trust situations.

  Explore Your Leadership Edge with the MOST Framework

  Building on PNODN’s journey with the Mastering Organizational and Societal Transformation (MOST) Assessment, this interactive session features PNODN member and facilitator Dr. Wendy Fraser, who excels in the MOST dimensions of helping leaders manage unexpected challenges and understanding how organizational strategy, systems, and culture contribute to the health and performance of organizations.

  We launched this series after Dr. Bill Brendel’s insightful session, where he shared how the MOST assessment provides OD professionals with evidence-based insights into their strengths, interests, and career pathways. As we continue this exploration in 2025, we invite you to join us in applying these insights to real-world OD challenges as we feature PNODN members with exceptional skills in many of the MOST assessment dimensions.

  OD Community Connections - Being OD
  

  
  

  This PNODN Community Gathering will be conducted live via Zoom. The zoom meeting details are included in your emailed confirmation and sent out the day prior.

  At our core, PNODN is a community. We are brought together by our shared passion for helping people thrive and organizations achieve more by unleashing the human potential within them. 

  Whether you think of yourself as an OD person or not, if you share this passion, we think you’ll love connecting with the amazing people in this community.

  Once each month we dedicate this gathering to the purpose of building community, helping you make connections that add value to your life in friendship, support and business collaboration.

  This is not your typical networking event where you share your business cards and well-worn elevator pitch. 

  This is about making authentic connections with people in our local community with whom you share this passion for people and fascination with the human dynamics of organizations.

  Each time we gather we’ll offer topics in line with our quarterly theme and guidance to make conversation easy. We’ll often use breakouts to give you a chance to talk with each other in small groups. And you’ll have the freedom to take the discussion in any direction that works for you and those gathered with you.

  We will share and stick to a set of guidelines that support our shared commitment of creating a safe environment in which everyone is valued and respected. Nothing will ever be forced – you can abstain at any time.

  The gathering is free of charge and everyone is welcome.
