OD Network: Organisational Trauma with Gareth Evans
We’re inviting anyone involved in OD, change, transformation or people-focused improvement work to take part. This includes those with OD in their job title and those without — if you work with people, influence change or are curious about how to engage others in shaping their organisation, there’s a place for you here.
The network aims to provide a safe, supportive and barrier-free peer space where colleagues can connect, build relationships and share the brilliant practice happening locally. It’s a space for those who may sometimes feel unsure, isolated, or “not senior or clever enough,” as well as those who want to grow their confidence, deepen their practice or simply learn with others.
This session will explore Organisational Trauma, led by Gareth Evans, Senior Organisational Development Manager at Betsi Cadwaladr University Health Board.
Join us for an interactive session exploring organisational trauma and what it can mean for people, teams, culture and organisations — and for those of us working in OD.
We’ll explore:
- The theory and impact of organisational trauma
- The OT Spidergram and Practice Framework
- How we can use these tools in OD practice
- How to introduce organisational trauma into consulting and intervention conversations, including with leaders
The session will combine input, practical tools, discussion and reflection, with plenty of opportunity to consider how the ideas apply to your own OD practice.
Optional pre-session reading and an OT Spidergram will be shared ahead of the event.
Come along to learn, reflect and explore how we might work with organisational trauma in thoughtful and practical ways.
