Africa's Change Maker with Dr Justine Chinoperekweyi - OrgDev Podcast 39

OrgDev with Distinction

We'd love to hear from you so send us a message!

In this episode, we explore African OD, how to create change and how to develop the next generation of leaders with Dr. Justine Chinoperekweyi. Justine is a pioneering scholar-practitioner, author, and leadership and governance trainer, joining us from Harare, Zimbabwe. Dr. Justine has led groundbreaking work in defining African OD, a critical contribution to a field that has historically been rooted in Western thinking.
Dr. Justine explores what happens when Kurt Lewin's theories on change meet the African philosophy of Ubuntu. He explains how amplifying African indigenous knowledge and wisdom enhances Organisation Development practices globally, offering a more holistic, whole-system approach to change and transformation.
We also discuss the fundamental values of OD and how they should guide the way we work, as well as Dr. Justine’s experience in supporting leaders, work groups, and organizations to embrace system-wide change across Asia, the Middle East and Africa. His pioneering work challenges traditional Western-centric perspectives and introduces a fresh lens on the future of OD.
