Listen "Building Generative Containers: Designing for Transformative Moments"
Episode Synopsis
Building generative containers to catalyze social and organizational change is not a well-developed skill in most OD/Change practitioners. But container building is a necessary, nay vital skill to solve the complex adaptive challenges of today. To solve today’s most intractable challenges, it requires bringing together highly diverse people from across a system to share, to listen, to empathize, and to learn from one another to create a shared understanding of both the issues at hand and how best to resolve them; an understanding that later leads to shared intention and aligned actions. Generative containers are the mechanism by which we help diverse others solve their most intractable problems together.
Hence, in today’s episode, we discuss how to build generative containers as a means to solve our most intractable issues, challenges, or problems. In this episode, you will learn: What are generative containers for change The key components necessary to create a container What it means to create the conditions for change to occur Key mechanisms that catalyze transformative change Role and responsibilities of an OD/Change Leader to bring about transformative change How to measure the success of a generative container.
