“Everyone needs to struggle with the question of what kind of future we want to create, and that vision is something that is alive and open to change. Vision is more a dialogue than a declaration. It is an important conversation, a significant stretch of the imagination, and it needs to emerge as a collective work-in-progress from each unit. Once a vision is laminated, it loses its life…..I finally realized that it was the act of creating a vision that matters, not so much the content of what it was”
From Flawless Consulting, Peter Block
The role of conversation in change

Achordus: How we’ve used it
![Page 22: IOD PARC: Achordus](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051609/546ea598af79598c6d8b4c92/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Trócaire What we were initially asked in to do
– Impact of global downturn– Country office restructure
What we did– Organisational design– Consultation process– Communications – Leadership support
How we integrated Achordus into activity– 3 phases
What difference it made
![Page 23: IOD PARC: Achordus](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051609/546ea598af79598c6d8b4c92/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Pseudo-consultation– The “real” conversations are elsewhere– The actions bear little relation to the community
suggestions
Publicness in an environment where it’s not “safe to speak up or out”
Risks
![Page 24: IOD PARC: Achordus](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051609/546ea598af79598c6d8b4c92/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Get a large group (up to 5,000) into a conversation for minimal cost per person
Buy in and commitment to the process as well as the outcome
New public space
New connections
Statement of intent
– Explicitly participatory– Public (named) conversations on something that
matters– Concentrated organisational focus
Benefits

Things we’d like to understand further – Impact– Influence (particularly on leadership practice)– Embedding
