Introduction by Annie Bordeleau Perhaps it is the way the conversation travels, moving gently across time zones, carried by stories and moments of progress that make the SF24 Conference such a unique event. It is held within a sense of being among friends, companions in a shared endeavour to discover and evolve.
John Brooker Annie Bordeleau Introduction A passionate group of solution-focused organisational practitioners came together for a two-day Unconference on how the Solution Focus (SF) approach could help create truly sustainable organisations. A powerful theme emerged: the need to make sustainability achievable for individuals and teams, empowering them to take meaningful action and providing hope that their efforts can make a real difference — whether within their organisation, networks, or society at large.

Introduced by Bodil Mickels Reflections on the Sustainability Unconference How can a solution-focused approach help create sustainable organisations? This was the theme at the SOLWorld “Unconference” sponsored by SFiO, in Land aan Zee, Netherlands, in mid-April 2024. 34 solution-focused coaches, organisational consultants, trainers and sustainability researchers, were present, representatives of public and local administrations, academia, private companies, and the third sector, making it a truly diverse and enriching experience. They joined from Europe, Australia and Canada, to ponder the theme question in a nature-rich environment. The forces of weather also participated in the experience, offering both sunshine and warmth, as well as torrential rain, thunder, and storms.
Join us at Land aan Zee, NL from Oct 14 to Oct 18 for a relaxed, creative gathering where experienced Solution Focus practitioners in organisations spark fresh insights and evolve the approach. It's a space for original thinking and exploring “big ideas,” for asking unusual and even provocative questions, and for taking time to let new possibilities emerge — all in a beautiful and inspiring setting that invites reflection and renewal.
Douglas will share his experience of working in an increasingly VUCA environment using Solution Focus.
