Reflections on a Mayvin development programme

In this episode we talk about development programmes and Action Learning.

The Mayvin team has grown substantially over the last couple of years and includes a mix of OD practitioners and those that are not from an OD background but specialise in other areas such as Operations, Marketing and Business Development.

At the beginning of 2021, we decided to run a development programme for the newest members of the Mayvin team, who are all non-OD practitioners.

The aim of the programme was to assist with their personal practice development and to encourage relationships across the team.  

Our Associate Consultant, the wonderful Cathy Korn, facilitated the programme, which mirrored programmes that we create for our clients. Like our client interventions, this programme:

• Had no rigid framework – participants decided together what they would explore
• Involved learning with and through peers
• Was focused on inquiry not problem solving
• Contained theory bursts, but only where appropriate to the exploration being undertaken
• Kept the exploration close to the grain of our real work

At the end of the programme the participants came together to reflect on their experience. They recorded the conversation to share with you and here it is
