Posts where this quotation is embeddedDespite current ads and slogans, the world doesn’t change one person at a time.
It changes when networks of relationships form among people who share a common cause and vision of what’s possible.
This is good news for those of us intent on creating a positive future.
Rather than worry about critical mass, our work is to foster critical connections.
We don’t need to convince large numbers of people to change; instead, we need to connect with kindred spirits.
Through these relationships, we will develop the new knowledge, practices, courage and commitment that lead to broad-based change.

Online Knowledge Café: Conversational Leadership — Beyond Knowledge Management
Wednesday 17th March 2026, 14:00 - 15:30 London time
Knowledge Management gives us access to information, but it does not decide or act. In this Knowledge Café, we will explore how Conversational Leadership builds on KM by strengthening shared reasoning, judgement, and agency. Join us to examine how we think together when knowledge alone is not enough.
