Trust me, I’m a changemaker – oikos workshop
Listen carefully: How to avoid your change project from blowing up
Changemakers are people of action, not theory. It’s just that, when things go wrong, there will be voices saying: “We told you so… you did not listen”. Former allies will distance themselves from you, eroding trust. So, to prevent your change project from blowing up, you need to learn that not-so-secret superpower called listening. Piece of cake, right? Well, far from it. Some people are just not good at it; we excel elsewhere. This is your chance to practice active listening. Then, we change roles: you’ll be the one to do the talking. Let’s help each other grow as changemakers. Showing up already sets you apart from the rest!
UrbanFuture 2024
Urban Future is an annual event taking place in a different city each year and brings together thousands of ‘CityChangers’ from all over the world to share how they create transformation and which mistakes are made, accelerating change and successfully shaping the future of our cities. Born out of a local urban mobility workshop in Graz, Austria, Urban Future has become the largest event for urban change-makers in Europe within just a few years. In 2024 the conference will take place in Rotterdam from 5 to 7 June bringing together activists, influencers and leaders with different backgrounds, like urban planning, architecture, mobility, energy, real estate, housing, tech, and public administration.
