There are more humane ways of being a manager / leader AND they happen to be more effective.  Gaining insight into the emotional life of an organisation is the most powerful data you have if you seek to be an effective leader.

• analyse, understand and manage group dynamics in organisations
• identify blockers to change due to structure, culture and/or technology
• work with the emotional labour of leading complex systems in fast-changing environments
• discover what is ‘below the surface’ in work situations
• part-time weekly classes OR two, three or five day modules

This conference offers the opportunity for conference members to learn about the dynamics of identity, gender and authority in the workplace; and how these enhance or detract from an integrated community. As a working conference, members and staff engage in group activities and learn from their experiences, rather than passively listen to speeches and papers.

  At NIODA we are excited to have established an Alumni of Organisation Dynamics Association (AODA).  Our first student cohort graduated with a Master of Leadership and Management (Organisation Dynamics) in 2017 and the second cohort in 2018.  In AODA NIODA graduates join with those who have undertaken postgraduate study in organisation dynamics at Swinburne and RMIT universities; all who have attained a level of mastery in systems psychodynamic thinking for application in many and varied ways, in different workplaces and social contexts. AODA activities provide opportunity for extending thinking and enabling interconnection with like minded people in this field.
