DESIGNING FOR INTENTIONAL REGENERATION … JOIN THE CONVERSATION

Peter Lawrence, MD at Ai Change Management, explains more about the work they are doing around Intentional Regeneration and why they are looking for your input.

In April we began a conversation at the iconic Athenaeum exploring the concept of place-based Organisation Development with several influential public sector leaders. We design our clothes, our cars, our homes. Some, but not many, design their organisations.

Is it possible to design our communities, our place?

We are now working with Louis Haycox, an international business student at the University of Liverpool, to explore this question further, applying the principles and values of Organisation Design and Development, which can be summarised as:

• Intentional – with a specific purpose in mind

• Intelligent – using all available data, including stories people tell

• Inclusive – hearing the different perspectives of everyone.

Thriving organisations are designed and developed “on purpose”.

We are seeking to create a community of inquiry and invite you to join us, completing a short questionnaire.

How can we move the discussion on from the conceptual to the practical?

Our findings will be available in early September which we will share with all contributors.
