Meet up on 25 April 2024, Agility is the leaders, individuals, teams, and organisations. It is the ability to dynamically sense and respond to changes in the (business) environment with actions that are focused, fast and flexible.
What if we coach without the idea of past and future, but only in the present moment? On September 19th, Annie Bordeleau and Monica Martin will guide you into a very different SF experiment.
What if change is possible where you are, with what you have? On 4 September at 13:00 CET and 7:00pm SGT, Kenneth Kwan shares an amazing piece of work which he lead in a large public hospital. Leading change has always been challenging and many people see that change is only possible from Top Down. But what if change is possible from the bottom up as well?
A practical solution-focused guide to inspire and guide you through the creation of a collaboration that achieves sustainable relationships and results.

ABOUT THE CONTRIBUTOR “Working with people, whether in training, coaching, or moderating group processes, is one of my core competencies where I feel ’like a penguin in water.’ While I love working in ‘3D,’ I am equally comfortable training or moderating virtually. I always find new ways to build trust, engage participants, and create informal, trustworthy spaces in a virtual environment.
I primarily work according to the solution-focused approach (Steve de Shazer and Insoo Kim Berg), which I combine with Nonviolent Communication (Marshall B. Rosenberg) and Thinking Environments (Nancy Kline). I have found these approaches to be very effective because they focus on resources and a preferred future where needs are met—typically a very energetic, development- and future-oriented process that looks for signs of progress and solutions instead of problems and their diagnosis. I integrate these approaches as a fundamental attitude into my daily life in my various roles.”
ABOUT THE CONTRIBUTOR I’m an SF hearted, organizational psychologist and agile practitioner with 15 years of experience in helping teams and organizations through change.
I teach in different Hungarian universities, published a few research papers on agile mindset and developed an assessment tool that helps teams follow their progress in their transformation and make their sings of progress loud and clear and transparent.
I worked with start-up teams and large multinational companies in Hungary and abroad with one strong intention: to help these teams and companies find their OWN agility and their OWN path there while enjoying the process every single day (or at least week).
