Vivien is an international specialist in collaborative practice. She has for the past 25 years designed and implemented stakeholder participation programs around some very sensitive projects.
She was the founding partner of Twyfords and more recently was part of the Twyfords collaborative process that developed a new model called Collaborative Governance – a way of working with diverse stakeholders to co-create enduring solutions to our most controversial dilemmas – a process urgently needed in today’s complex world. The work Vivien loves best is designing collaborative practice, coaching practitioners and providing leadership to organisations in Australia and New Zealand who recognise the need to partner and collaborate more effectively.
During her workshop, Vivien will outline the key components of the Collaborative Governance model and provide practical examples of how it can be implemented in a variety of settings.
