Ironies of Organisational Change
In conversation with Richard Badham
Join us at an exclusive talk with leadership, change and innovation expert and author Professor Richard Badham, as he shares insights from his latest book on Ironies of Organisational Change on at UTS Business School on Thursday 27 July.
Richard will be in conversation with:
- Allan Parker, Managing Director of Peak Performance Development Pty Ltd and recipient of the Order of Australia for his contribution to business and dispute resolution
- Professor Carl Rhodes, Dean of the UTS Business School and author of Woke Capitalism: Democracy Under Threat in the Age of Corporate Righteousness
- Elizabeth Aris, COO of Swarm Dynamics and an accomplished corporate and tech industry leader, having held executive roles at Telstra, Microsoft and Westpac.
The panel will provide a fresh perspective on how organisations can effectively navigate the emerging challenges of today’s world and explore how we can harness change to improve our work, organisations and society for the better.
Organisations have endured unprecedented challenges in recent times, making effective approaches to change more important than ever. Richard will share practical approaches to managing the challenges of change in a world in which ’victory is elusive and virtue is not reliably rewarded’, and discuss how a ‘lightness of being’ can help achieve outcomes, find meaning and look after yourself and others in the process.
In Ironies of Organisational Change, Richard, and Brenda M. Santiago, present an inspired, creative and practical way of addressing a practice that has confounded managers for generations. They challenge us to reimagine the myths about change that we have held onto for too long, providing a fresh perspective on what can be done to get it right.
