Navigating life and work often feels like a journey across a shifting, unpredictable river. Like an adventurer braving the rivers’ current, we too must take small, careful steps, learning as we go, and adapting our course as the water shifts beneath us. The idea that work must be 'ready' before we can start it is as flawed as waiting for the river to stand still before crossing.

In this enlightening session, we will explore the concept of Mindful Work and the powerful Cynefin framework, examining how these tools can help us make meaningful progress, even in the face of uncertainty.

Drawing on personal tales from a Yorkshire childhood and reflections from the world of work, we will discover how to handle the 'knowns' and 'unknowns' we encounter in our daily professional lives.

John will share why diving into work, despite its readiness, is the real key to uncovering value and learning.

You'll learn:

- How to navigate the complexities and chaos of work using the Cynefin framework and ‘Mindful Work'.
- The power of small steps and timeboxing in tackling both certain and uncertain tasks.
- The critical role of reflection in learning, adapting, and making progress.
- How to embrace uncertainty, keep moving forward, and make waves in your organization.

Join us as we wade into the river of uncertainty and emerge on the other side, armed with the tools and insights needed to thrive in our unpredictable world.
