Join the South Island Chapter for an afternoon of practical insights, discussion and networking focused on one of the biggest challenges facing organisations today: leading people through change.
Change continues to be a constant across every sector, and leaders are increasingly being asked to navigate uncertainty, support their people through transition and maintain performance in challenging environments.
Designed for professionals from across the Nelson, Tasman and Marlborough region, this interactive forum combines expert perspectives with facilitated discussions and practical activities that will help you reflect on the challenges and opportunities facing your own organisation.
Dr Carl Beuke, Principal Psychologist at Cerno, will share practical approaches for preparing leaders to support change, including managing resistance, building confidence and handling difficult conversations.
Joining Carl will be Barb Grant, author of Change Management that Sticks and an experienced change leader who specialises in helping organisations translate complex transformation into practical, people-focused action.
Together, they will share insights, experiences and lessons learned from supporting change across a wide range of organisations and industries.
You’ll leave with fresh perspectives, practical ideas, valuable regional connections and actions you can apply immediately in your own workplace.
Join the Queensland Chapter for one of our most popular events, an evening of relaxed networking with Brisbane’s vibrant change community.
Whether you’re a seasoned change professional, new to the field, or simply curious to connect with others who understand the challenges and rewards of leading change, this is the perfect opportunity to build relationships in a friendly, informal setting.
Reconnect with familiar faces, make new connections, exchange ideas, and hear how others are navigating the ever-evolving world of change. You never know where a conversation might lead – a fresh perspective, a new opportunity, or even your next collaboration.
New to the chapter? Even better – you’ve just found your people. (And yes, we’re definitely friendlier than most stakeholder engagement sessions.)
Coming on your own? Many attendees do, and our committee will be there to help make introductions.
AI is no longer a future consideration, it’s transforming the way organisations work today.
Successful enterprise AI adoption isn’t just about implementing new technology, it’s about helping people embrace new ways of working with confidence, trust and purpose.
Join Brenda Frith, Associate Director at Changeworks Consulting, as she shares practical insights from a real enterprise AI rollout. Drawing on first-hand experience, Brenda will share how a safety-first, people-centred change approach can drive meaningful AI adoption at scale.
The session will focus on the story of the rollout, key insights and tips for introducing AI in a responsible way that builds trust, psychological safety and adoption.
Whether you’re leading AI initiatives or preparing your organisation for what’s next, you’ll leave with practical ideas you can apply to your own enterprise AI journey.

Every change project leaves an environmental and social footprint. Most of us have never stopped to ask what our work – and the organisations we shape – leaves behind for people and planet.
Whether you’re working on an AI or ERP implementation, a customer experience project, or a whole-of-business transformation, you’ll walk away with shared experiences and new knowledge about your sustainability impact today and tomorrow.
Amid the noise of tech rollouts, here’s the question we want to sit with for an hour: when you look back on your career, do you want to be known for how well you helped roll out yet another piece of tech, or for the environmental and social difference your change work made along the way?
Collectively we’ll share real stories with peers – the moments sustainability clicked in a project, and the moments it stalled – as well as practical tips. Come ready to share, not just listen.
Ever found yourself in a meeting that goes round in circles, watched a project continue despite widespread doubts, or wondered why organisations persist with practices that seem disconnected from reality?
Organisations often present themselves as rational systems, driven by logic, evidence, and clear decision-making. Yet the lived experience of organisational life is frequently far messier. Contradictions, workarounds, competing priorities, and seemingly irrational behaviours are often the norm rather than the exception.
In this thought-provoking session, we’ll explore the concept of organisational absurdity and what it can teach us about how organisations really function. Drawing on research, practice, and real-world examples, we’ll examine why organisations drift from reality while continuing to operate, how paradox and incoherence emerge, and what this means for leaders and change practitioners.
Hosted by the UK Midlands Chapter, this event will challenge conventional assumptions about organisations and change, exploring how making sense of organisational absurdity can help us navigate complexity, foster adaptability, and lead change more effectively.
Because perhaps organisational absurdity isn’t the exception. Perhaps it’s the reality we’re all trying to make sense of.
