Pause to Reflect: Lessons for Navigating Complex Change

Описание: In a year defined by disruption, uncertainty, and chronic crisis across the social-good ecosystem, this presentation brings you clarity, grounding, and a path forward. Aisha Tambajang and Kim Kucinskas from Humentum share what they’ve learned from hundreds of conversations with leaders, practitioners, and changemakers navigating upheaval — and what it will take to transform intentionally, not by default.

What You’ll Learn

• What’s changing across the sector and why it feels overwhelming
• Emotional truths behind disruption: grief, liberation, skepticism, hope
• The Two Loops Model: navigating the collapse of an old system and the rise of a new one
• The “Forest” metaphor: resilience as ecosystem health, not individual strength
• TIME’s futures matrix: mapping probable, possible, and preferable futures
• What leaders need now: clarity, courage, small connected actions, and strong relationships

What is TIME?

Launched in 2022, TIME (Transforming Institutional Models for Equity) was created from a simple belief: our sector can do better when we learn and change together.

Over three phases, TIME has evolved from research and reflection into real-time practice. It now convenes organizations and funders to make sense of disruption, test power-shifting models, and build the conditions for lasting change. Its approach combines sensemaking, futures thinking, and practical bridging — turning insights into concrete shifts across organizations and ecosystems.
