GW ep1: Facilitating in the Chaos with Meg Buzzi
Meg Buzzi is an author, facilitator, coach, and organisational design consultant. She is a true activator, committed to co-creating cultures of trust, alignment, and authenticity. Her work draws on living systems theory, ethnography, and creative practice, along with 20 years of leading software teams and business transformation projects.In this first ever Generative Worlding episode, we follow the conversation as it snakes its way through how these times of chaos are affecting the way people in groups show up, into why having multiple perspectives noticing what’s happening ‘in the room’ is so important, and arrives at the need for facilitators to have islands of support beneath our feet so we can best serve when in the facilitator role.It wasn’t intended to be a facilitation role-focused conversation but I’m glad it went that way because there’s so much wisdom here for all of us, facilitators or not.To find out more about Meg and her work, you can head to her book The In-Between, which she describes as ‘a hands-on guide to thriving in today’s hybrid workplace.’, explore workplace transformation through her consultancy, the Present of Work, or join one of the free events starter cultures facilitates— a community collective she co-founded during the 2020 lockdown.She’s also a founding member at Open Facilitation, as am I!
