Prole – sense – respond in practice AKA “The Risk of Success”
Show me the Change
Complexity and the Art of Evaluation – Reporting Sheet
Topic: Prole – sense – respond in practice AKA “The Risk of Success”
Leader: Jon Kendall
Participants: Anna Straton, Beth Hyland, Anna Lohse, Jonathan Davy, Fran Westmore, Megan Hughes, Mark Butz
Key Points:
• We focussed all the challenges of the two worlds of change
• ME – satisfying the needs of “funders”
– doing things to create sustainable change
• Tempting to think that we have to pretend in various ways in the direction of funders, and tempting to think something huge has to happen to move the situation on. BUT we concluded that small things are where the power and opportunity live – what small things can we do to probe/test what seem like fixed boundaries? The small steps often create big ripples!
• And the apparent paradox of funded change! In order to make a difference we decided to maintain the status quo.
