Change Is In The Making Podcast

Join Kevan and Ceri on a vibrant, poetic exploration of the dynamics needed to create healthy facilitation spaces. In this episode, you'll travel along with them to The Art of Hosting retreat on Bowen Island, and discover leading, emerging insights about community and co-creation.

Go on a field trip with our Lead Facilitator, Kevan, as he travels to Vancouver to talk to a group of CEO's about "The Listening Organization." This peek behind-the-scenes at a facilitator's day illuminates how to adopt a mindset of listening and adapting in order to more accurately understand and meet emerging needs.

Kevan's back from paternity leave! Which makes this the perfect episode to take a break. Listen in on a lively conversation between two colleagues about the value of taking time away from work to see both yourself and your work more clearly. Kevan and Veronica draw on their own and each other's experience to explore the topic of leaves, trust, identity, and what being a human-centred organization is all about.

In our fifth episode, engagement strategist and mediation facilitator Ceri Rees unpacks why assertion is as key to connection as empathy, and how to hold the two in balance. Also on the conversational agenda: how to listen effectively, why it's ok to sometimes wait before tackling a tough issue, and how our beliefs about conflict influence our emotional response and actions.

How does our technology contribute to or detract from an experience of joy in our daily lives? In designing for delight and "stickiness," have we embraced problematic goals? Award-winning author and speaker Christina Crook joins us to discuss how we might integrate tech into our lives in ways that help us flourish.

An insightful, wide-ranging conversation with Domain7's Design Director Stanley Lai on the present, past and future of design thinking.

We welcome senior leadership consultant, mindfulness teacher, and Sauder School of Business professor Alex Trisoglio to the show to discuss what it takes to lead change in an increasingly volatile and uncertain world. A lively conversation on cross-disciplinary thinking, generational shifts, psychological safety, and the importance of diverse strengths.

In our first episode, Kevan and Veronica discuss the human reality behind the jargon-y buzzword of "Digital Transformation." A candid conversation about the business necessity and cultural impact of digital change as it transforms our workplaces and lives.
