MONIQUE CARNINO

Monique Carnino is a multi-skilled Business Management Consultant and Executive Coach, specialising in Organisational Development, Change Management, Leadership Development, HR Consultancy and Organisation Design. She has over fifteen years of experience working with executive management teams and individual clients to create corporate strategies, corporate profiles, organisation designs, risk management plans, business plans, business improvement projects, leadership development programs, set-up new HR departments and much more for industries such as energy, finance, IT, aviation, and telecoms. She has a successful track record of working with others to bring about bottom line performance improvement results and changes in the way people work, think and behave.

Monique has designed and facilitated multiple whole system change global and regional interventions by understanding and setting objectives with key clients, managing diverse teams, procuring appropriate resources and creating productive learning environments. She has often worked in high pressure, highly ambiguous environments in multiple countries and can adapt her interventions and flex her approach accordingly. Before starting her own business, Know How Now, she managed large-scale business improvement programs and major transformational change programs for Royal Dutch Shell, and she provided ongoing coaching to global and regional leadership teams both inside and outside of Shell. For example, she led risk management and alignment conferences with senior leaders and government officials in Eastern Europe to define a global energy company's strategy and vision, identify its risks, and prepare a plan of action. She then led a client team to complete that plan over several years and sustain the needed changes in the organisation. She has lived in eight countries on 4 continents and travelled extensively to over 65 countries.

Monique enjoys bringing out the best in people and seeing them excel in areas where they have real passion and drive. She has a strong business focus and can see the bigger picture whilst paying attention to the details. Monique is goal orientated and loves continuously learning and collaborating with others to deliver targeted results.

In addition to an MBA (University of St. Thomas, 1998) and a BSc in Psychology (Texas A&M University, 1994), she has completed many globally recognised accreditations in organisational development, change management, executive and team coaching, project management, and HR.

Monique is a founding member of the Africa Organization Design Forum and a member of the global Organisational Development Network, the International Association of Facilitators, Duke Corporate Education's Global Learning Resource Network, Africa Association of Change Management Professionals, and the South Africa Organisational Development Network (SAODN). She was also on the Board of the SAODN in 2012.


BILL ZYBACH - Syngineer

Bill Zybach is an expert in leading large-scale high engagement business, government, and community transformational change initiatives through the use of participative, whole system change approaches. He is highly experienced in innovative business design, restructuring, transformation, technology management and implementation, socio-technical organizational development, and program management with over 30 years of experience across public and private sectors.

Bill brings accelerated large group change methodologies that he has developed from, and in collaboration with, gurus such as Jay Galbraith, Margaret Wheatley, Stu Winby, Dick and Emily Axelrod, Naomi Stanford, Harrison Owens, Marilynn Emory, and Carolyn Lukensmyer. He has engaged in short and long-term projects with these well-known colleagues to accelerate sustainable change.

Bill has worked in the Department of Agriculture, US Department of Health, as well as other federal, state and local governments to bring employees, scientists, politicians, and diverse interest groups together to create collaborative strategic and tactical solutions that are responsive to changing ecosystems. For example, he enabled 10 Federal regional offices to implement Total Quality Management successfully. He worked with former Vice President Al Gore on the "Reinventing Government" program which resulted in, by the end of the Clinton Administration, a balanced federal budget, and for the first time since the Kennedy Administration, an increase in the public's impression and confidence in government. Bill is a global speaker on Organization Design and Alignment and creator of the 3 Horizons of Work framework which integrates Organization Design, Organization Development and Change Management to align change interventions within an organizational context.

In 2012 and 2013, Bill designed and facilitated engagement processes in South Africa that brought cross-disciplinary global innovators and national leaders together to create new solutions to long-standing challenges, including designing and facilitating the Flourish Conference on behalf of the South Africa Organisational Development Network and the Africa Organisation Design Forum.

Bill sits on the global Organization Design Forum's Board of Directors and is a founding member of the Africa Organization Design Forum. He has a Masters Degree in Public Administration, 6 years of postgraduate education from the world-renowned Gestalt Institute of Cleveland (USA), and extensive training in organisational design, development and change methodologies.
