Ripples on the Tasmanica

What a massive week it was and I am still recovering. I was lucky enough to be one of 15 participants in the Trinity of Management workshop run by Ernesto Sirolli. Gathering in a room with key people from Lifeline, Migrant Resource Centre, entrepreneurs and others we listened to the principles of this approach which has been honed over the past 25 years.
What a huge reservoir of knowledge this team has, having worked all over the world from Africa to Cornwall, UK. The Trinity of Management training reinforced the approach of focusing on individual strengths and gathering the skills around you that are lacking.
'Do what you love to do and find others to do the things you hate'. It's such a simple approach, but goes against the individualist approach that current business models take.
Three days of debating, discussing and sharing stories was fantastic and is only the beginning.
The training fits perfecting with Branching Out, which has identified gaps in the industry and the need for new approaches. With financial support from Rio Tinto, the Myer Foundation and the Department of Economic Development this was an invaluable training opportunity.
Ernesto will be back in September and we will continue to work with TasCOSS and other stakeholders to progress the opportunities. Watch this Space!!!
