PAST EVENT | Collaboration in the Age of Reinvention

Adam Lawrence leads a group activity in a workshop

Explore the behaviours and habits needed in times of reinvention

What lies in the future will largely be defined by the way we can reinvent the systems we inhabit, the value we create and the way we work and collaborate with one another. This will be the age of reinvention. It will bring about many opportunities, challenges and disruptions that will demand us to operate as adaptive and resilient teams, to build with what we have, and navigate and solve complex issues that are impacting us all.

As individuals, what are the behaviours and habits for collaboration we should strive to cultivate for the age of reinvention?

Join Adam Lawrence from WorkPlayExperience (co-author of This is Service Design Doing) and MAKE Studios in this two-hour playful and fast-paced workshop. We will set out to spotlight topics such as communication, agency, leadership, and the hidden forces at play within teams and organisations. We will explore the dynamics of control, trust, and action, and consider strategies to navigate shared goals and distributed leadership needed for a future of reinvention.

Workshop Outcomes

  • Gain a better understanding of your own collaborative preferences and habits.
  • Develop personal strategies for cooperative reinvention and leadership challenges.
  • Reflect on what makes an effective reinvention culture, and what can be done to facilitate and nurture it.
