DESIGN to CHANGE - Elevating your abilities to look and act beyond the now.

A good conversation can shift the direction of change forever. Would you leave it chance?

Would you like to know how to identify, respond and act in situations of ambiguity with your event owner?

A conversation with the authors and creators of the Event Canvas™ with a sneak peak into their new book "DESIGN to CHANGE".

Driven by the needs and conversations with Event Owners and Event Designers who use the Event Canvas™ around the world in a turbulent time of change, we have drafted the “DESIGN to CHANGE” companion book to the best-selling “Event Design Handbook”.

In this session, you will explore with the authors and EDC MasterMinds the implications of the change in the event landscape and how to design the conversations between Event Owners and Event Designers. A story about wants and needs, process and outcome, and horizons of change from a dualistic perspective.

The session is for designers, owners, managers, change-makers, and gatekeepers, interested in how events can create value for an organisation over time.
