Becoming Adaptable provides insights on why adaptability enables better performance in personal and professional life. It details many insightful and practical facilitation activities to develop deeper understanding of people, relationships and culture. It explains how behavioural impacts what people perceive in context and what this means for how they interact with each other in learning and social interactions. The book explores how facilitation works best in practice, and what this means for the performance of individuals, teams and organisations. The new concept of MindFLEX is introduced to describe the parallel states of mind that enable a facilitator to more richly engages participants in facilitated activities. Becoming Adaptable is an essential resource for anyone wishing to make a difference for themselves and their peers, in both personal and professional situations. It is a compelling resource for experienced professionals who want to lead, coach, mentor or positively influence others around them.
Becoming Adaptable further develops the creative metaphor described in The Organizational Zoo (OrgZoo) into a series of advanced behavioural activities that can be facilitated to build trust and strengthen relationships. The advanced techniques have been developed for a range of personal and professional development and are clearly described by walking facilitators through why, who, what, when, where and how to deliver through the process. Useful facilitator tips and hints are provided to optimise success. Seventy relevant topics are listed to highlight the complexities of facilitation, with a brief connection to where the reader can find out more about them. Understanding what these are and knowing when to apply them will assist the performance of practitioners using the activities to achieve desired learning and development outcomes.
