Change for the Audacious (ePub)

Steve Waddell's work over 30 years on large systems change has made him a thought leader and change agent at the local, national, regional and global levels. His work has covered a wide range of change challenges including many aspects of sustainability, youth development, poverty, health care, education, slavery, and finance. As an educator, community organizer globally, keynote speaker, consultant and project partner he has worked with the UN Global Compact, Gates Foundation, World Bank, Global Reporting Initiative, Ford Foundation, Humanity United, Civicus, International Youth Foundation, USAID, International Development and Research Centre, Impact Hubs, Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, the Forest Stewardship Council and many others.
In the 1980s in his hometown of Vancouver, Canada, Steve worked on systems change locally. From Boston over 25 years he has worked nationally and globally. Because he sees that change requires weaving together relationships in new ways, Steve focuses upon intersectoral (business-government-civil society), inter-organizational collaboration and networks to produce innovation, enhance impact, and build new capacity. Three key concepts are associated with his work: "societal learning and change," which is a deep change strategy to address chronic and complex issues; "global action networks", which are an emerging form of global governance that addresses issues requiring transformation; and "large systems change" which deals with profound shifts in individual orientations, organizational structures and societal institutions.
Steve has a PhD in Sociology and an MBA, and lives in Boston.
