    Ep 71 - A human, learning systems approach to The Construction Accord, with Judy Zhang

    Introducing Judy Zhang How can we put relationships, learning and a systems-view at the centre of our work? This question is what guides my kōrero with Construction Accord Director, Judy Zhang. The Construction Accord is a shared commitment between government and industry to transform the construction sector. In 2022, the government set out a three-year action plan to tackle the sector's systemic challenges and build resilience across the industry. With the temptation to sweep failures under the rug when working in the public sector, Judy shares how transformative it can be when we put learning at the heart of our work. In today's episode you'll learn: What happens when you put relationships and learning at the center of systems change. Why evaluation needs to be everybody's job (not just the data people's) How to shift from KPIs (focused on proving your progress) to meaningful measures (focused on learning).

    Ep 68 - Making the Move: Shifting How the Public Sector Works with Communities, with Vanessa Sidney-Richmond and Sarah Morris

    Introducing Vanessa Sidney-Richmond and Sarah Morris Today's episode was sparked by the recent release of a report called Make the Move: Shifting How the Public Sector Works with Communities. I don't know about you, but that's a topic I can get in behind. In today's episode, I talk to Vanessa Sidney-Richmond, Pou Whirinaki of Te Tihi o Ruahine Whānau Ora Alliance, and Sarah Morris, Freelance Social and Systems Change Consultant and author of the report (commissioned by Inspiring Communities). In our kōrero, the overarching theme is around the question; how can we shift the way the public sector works with communities? How can we broaden government's role so it's about creating the conditions for change, alongside creating solutions themselves? We cover a few key topics in today's episode, and that's what I love about these interviews! A complete collaboration and sharing of ideas and opinions. So please, enjoy this impactful kōrero with Vanessa and Sarah, and make sure to check out the report. Don't just listen to this episode... share it with your team and use the report to inspire some deep learning, reflection and action. In today's episode you'll learn: What 'locally led, regionally supported and nationally enabled' really means and how this approach can positively impact communities. What do we mean by 'creating the conditions for change'? (And why is that shift so important?) How can we rebalance the relationship between government and community, bit by bit?

    Ep 66 - Grow your Cultural Quotient with Pasifika Governance Expert Mele Wendt

    Introducing Mele Wendt Most of us have heard about IQ (your intellectual quotient), and some of us have heard about EQ (your emotional quotient). But what do you know about your CQ - your cultural quotient? In a world of diverse ethnicities and cultures, it's time to grow your cultural awareness. In today's episode, Mele Wendt graciously gives us some tough love and unpacks some Pasifika concepts of governance and collaboration. Her whakapapa roots back to Samoa, and so her perspective comes through a Samoan lens. Mele shares with us how the Samoan governance system is so different, yet so similar to Western governance systems. And she challenges us to stop lumping "the Pasifika community" together as one, and instead get out there and learn about the rich cultural diversity and needs of Pasifika communities before we engage. In today's episode you'll learn: What is CQ and how can you grow yours How Samoan governance is similar to Western governance (and how you can embrace that when working with Pasifika peoples) Some hard-hitting practical tips for engaging with Pasifika communities.

    Ep 65 - The Science of Listening with Dr. Emily Beausoleil

    Introducing Dr Emily Beausoleil  In today’s episode, Dr Emily Beausoleil asks a fundamental question: How do we make it easier for people in advantaged positions to listen effectively? Because let's face it. In today's society, listening is the poor cousin to talking. We face immense challenges in building the capacity for better listening in our institutions, our online spaces and our everyday interactions. Emily's work explores the conditions, challenges, and possibilities of democratic engagement in diverse societies. Born and raised in Canada, Emily is aware of her own privilege and curious about her place in Aotearoa New Zealand. In this epsiode, we explore listening in Aotearoa's context - how can we learn from, and listen to, our tangata, our people, when engaging with different organisations? How can we make sure we have an awareness of their history, culture, structure and location - all in hopes of deeper understanding? In today's episode you'll learn: What research tells us about how to enable (or disable) good listening How can we listen more intentionally, in hopes of gaining a deeper understanding. How to navigate your own privilege (or challenge) in different contexts.
