Endings for Beginnings
Creating healthier organisations and brighter beginnings by facilitating leaders to fully attend to endings.
AN ENDING IS A BEGINNING
Endings for Beginnings is a hub of resources to support leaders and their organisations to start conversations about brighter beginnings and healthier organisations, facilitated by better attending to endings.
A conversation we had in 2017 about what we observed in organisations in terms of investing heavily in beginnings and new starts and moving on rather too swiftly from endings, inspired us to pursue a deep enquiry into how leaders often neglect endings.
In 2020, the context of many layers of often distressing endings as a result of Covid19, led us to share beyond our clients, an article that we hoped would support leaders in navigating their way through this challenging time. The response was extraordinary, and we were moved by how our intention to start those conversations became a reality and how helpful leaders found the work of fully acknowledging the loss and grief that their organisations were experiencing.
Galvanised by how useful and timely we are hearing our work is, we created resources in addition to the article, to support leaders and their teams to do this work in a structured and safe way. We are delighted to share them with you here.
