University Restructures and Unstable Leadership: Supporting Ourselves and Others Through Change
Tuesday 1 July
12pm-1pm (NZT)
Nancy November from the University of Auckland will lead this session exploring how we navigate cycles of institutional change, restructure, and leadership flux. Drawing on the SCARF model, mindset shifting, and strategies for managing workplace endings, we’ll consider how to support ourselves and others while freeing up capacity for what’s next.
