Udviklingsforløb med fokus på aktionslæring og aktionsforskning i praksis
En invitation til at deltage i innovativ praksisudvikling
Baggrund
Som et led i ambitionen om at være med til at videreudvikle den relationelle – systemiske
tilgang til at arbejde med at udvikle ledere og organisationer, tager vi initiativ til endnu et
netværksforløb, for erfarne systemiske praktikere.
Initiativet til at etablere et netværksforløb med fokus på aktionslæring og aktionsforskning,
sker ud fra en ambition om at skabe et innovativt læringsforum for praktikere, hvor vi
gennem både konkrete cases og med input fra spændende internationale forskere, kan
være med til at udvikle nye horisonter indenfor den relationelle ledelses-tilgang.
Indhold
Til hvert netværksmøde vil der være relevant litteratur fra en række aktuelle internationale
forskere. Desuden vil der på hvert møde være et oplæg (via Skype) fra en af disse
forskere.

Vi satser på denne meget spændende række af internationale forskere, der alle er med til
at videreudvikle den relationelle ledelsestænkning.

Uddybende om oplægsholderne
Kevin Barge is a Professor of Communication at Texas A & M University and an
Associate with the Taos Institute. He is also a member of the planning team for the Aspen
Conference, a community of engaged organizational communication scholars focused on
developing practical theory and collaborative research that bridge academic-practitioner
interests.
Kevin’s major research interests center on developing a social constructionist approach to
leadership, articulating the connections between appreciative practice and organizational
change, as well as exploring the relationship between discourse and public deliberation,
specifically practices that facilitate communities working through polarized and polarizing
issues. Other research interests include investigating the role of reflexivity in leadership
and management practice, examining ways to develop effective academic-practitioner
collaborations, and developing practical theory. Kevin’s research is inspired by
interpretive and discursive research approaches and he is keenly interested in how
collaborative research methods can be used to generate usable knowledge and forward
movement in organizations and communities.

Jody Hoffer Gittell is Professor at Brandeis University's Heller School for Social Policy
and Management. As Executive Director of the Relational Coordination Research
Collaborative, she brings scholars and practitioners together to help organizations build
relational coordination for high performance. She also serves as Chief Scientific Officer of
Relational Coordination Analytics Inc., offering measurement, evaluation and
visualization of relational coordination networks to organizations seeking to improve their
performance.
Dr. Gittell's research explores how coordination by front-line workers contributes to quality
and efficiency outcomes in service settings. She has developed a theory of relational
coordination, proposing that work is most effectively coordinated through relationships of
shared goals, shared knowledge and mutual respect, and demonstrating how
organizations can support relational coordination through the design of their work systems.

Sonia M. Ospina is Professor of Public Management and Policy in the Robert F. Wagner
Graduate School of Public Service at New York University. She is also co-founder and
Faculty Co-Director of the Wagner affiliated Research Center for Leadership in Action
(RCLA). She has a Ph.D. in Sociology and a Masters in Public Policy and Management
from the State University of New York at Stony Brook.
A sociologist by training, she applies organization and management theories to public
problem solving and governance, in the United States and in Latin America. These
interests are reflected in three areas of scholarship: leadership and social transformation
(exploring the civil society side of governance); change in public management systems
(exploring the State side of governance); and the craft of qualitative research (exploring
research solutions to studying these areas and their intersections). She is the author of
numerous referred journal articles and book chapters on these areas, and has produced
six books, among them, Illusions of Opportunity: Employee Expectations and Workplace
Inequality (1996), Results-oriented Evaluation for a Modern and Democratic Public
Management: Latin American Experiences(2003, in Spanish; co-authored), and Advancing
Relational Leadership Research: A Conversation Across Perspectives (2012, co-edited).
Over the past decade, Professor Ospina directed a Ford Foundation-sponsored multi-year,
national research project, partnering with 92 social change organizations in the United
States to study their leadership and contributions to democracy. Using traditional and
participatory research, this work yielded practitioner booklets and pedagogical materials,
as well as peer-reviewed journal articles and book chapters, including a co-edited book on
relational leadership, and another, in process, on social change leadership in the nonprofit
sector. During this time Ospina also explored governance and accountability issues
associated with public management reform in Latin America, using comparative research
methods to study the institutionalization of national public management evaluation
systems.
