Top Inspiration, News and Jobs on Systems Change

Systems Change: The joy is in the journey

top links & Inspiration on how to change a system

Lots of gatherings of systems practitioners have been taking place in the last couple of months in Chicago, Austin, San Francisco and London. It’s exciting to see consultants, community leaders, funders and others come together to try and build the field of practice,.

We are working Tatiana Fraser in Canada to build a program of support for systems leaders who are in the thick of it. More of that to come. You can read why we think this is necessary in our blog on the Kumu site this month
The Challenge of Systems Leadership.

Reminders of why we need these systems leaders are everywhere again this month with the Harvey Weinstein scandal and the fires in Sanoma.

If you have news, articles, jobs and publications on systems change, send them over and we will help you spread the word.
