About Transformational storyboarding ™ OD Net An Innovative OD Net Organisational Development Intervention Transformational storyboarding™ offers a key mechanism for unlocking individual and organisational wisdoms to achieve real and lasting individual and organisational transformation
About Transformational storyboarding ™ OD Net An Innovative OD Net Organisational Development Intervention Transformational storyboarding™ and the Eight Storyboard Transformers™ are mechanisms specifically and uniquely developed by ODNet for South African organisations in our modern times using age old techniques. As part of their Knowledge Management strategies, most South African companies and organisations have systematically invested in state of the art technological systems. These systems purport to enable better management of data, information and achieve business integration and transformation. ERP systems, Knowledge Management Systems and others have proven to be insufficient in and of themselves. They produce data, but not information. They produce reports, but not learning. They store knowledge but not wisdom. They embed “best practice processes” but not “best practice wisdoms”.
About Transformational storyboarding ™ OD Net An Innovative OD Net Organisational Development Intervention Knowledge Management further involves leaders rediscovering the benefits and pleasures of telling rich stories Leaders in the context of Transformational storyboarding™, are defined as “anyone who has a meaningful story to tell that can impact others” Real knowledge management must include the management of the tapping into and recording of the individual and collective wisdoms and lessons learnt and transmitting these from generation to generation. This has been hard to achieve given that most leaders have, by and large, lost touch with their own oral traditions, wisdoms and techniques that collectively formed the very history and growth of themselves and their organisations Many a storyteller’s role is in fact much deeper than the mere sharing of knowledge, data, information, values and behaviours. In some profound way, good storytellers are able to tap individual and collective sub-consciousness spiritual wisdoms.

OD Net About Transformational storyboarding ™ Some recent theoretical backing ODNet’s Approach, Process and Content Peter Senge – describing theTheory U “T he theory and methodology of the U have a great deal to say about the nature of leadership, especially leadership in times of great turbulence and systemic change. This leadership comes from all levels, not only from “the top,” because significant innovation is about doing things differently, not just talking about new ideas. This leadership arises from people and groups who are capable of letting go of established ideas, practices, and even identities. Most of all, this leadership comes as people start to connect deeply with who they really are and their part in both creating what is and realizing a future that embodies what they care most deeply about”
OD Net About Transformational storyboarding ™ Some recent theoretical backing ODNet’s Approach, Process and Content Peter Senge – describing the Theory U “These ideas are critical elements of Theory U, what is especially important is that they are not just theory. They have arisen from extensive practical experience with the U methodology. Woven throughout the following chapters are stories about and reflections on long-term change initiatives in business, health care, and education. For example, the largest systemic change project I have yet seen, the Sustainable Food Laboratory , today involves more than fifty businesses and nongovernmental and governmental organizations working together to address the forces driving global food systems in a “race to the bottom” and to create prototypes of alternative, sustainable food systems. You’ll also find here other examples that cover health care, education, and business innovation.”
OD Net About Transformational storyboarding ™ Some recent theoretical backing ODNet’s Approach, Process and Content Peter Senge – describing the Theory U “While practical know-how in implementing Theory U is still in its infancy , these projects demonstrate clearly that these principles can be translated into practice and that, when this is done, they reveal immense capacities for changing social systems that previously appeared to many to be unchangeable. There are many encouraging systemic change initiatives in the world today”. Yet what is largely missing is a way to develop the capacity to develop collective wisdom across diverse settings and involving diverse organizations and actors, especially in the context of confronting multisector, multistakeholder challenges
