Roundtable 2026

Leadership for Systems Change 

Oslo Norway - BI Norwegian Business School - Nov 12-14

In today’s turbulent world, systems change is an ongoing requirement.  Systems are made up of interdependent stakeholders acting in multiple organizations and at multiple levels, from direct service delivery to policy making. These stakeholders are linked by relationships, for better or worse. How can we engage in systems change as change agents, and study it as researchers?    

At the Roundtable 2026 we ask: How might we (re)build relationships in organizations, ecosystems, sectors, communities  and countries for the purpose of achieving desired outcomes?  Through exploration of “how,” “what” and “why,” our aim is to accelerate learning among change agents, leaders, practitioners and researchers from different fields. 

We welcome your work on this topic at any level of systems change, whether research or practice. Abstracts are due June 12.  See here for abstract requirements and key dates.  

Event Overview

Roundtable 2026 will start Thursday afternoon with Welcoming Activities, followed by a Welcoming Reception.    Workshops, symposia and keynotes are featured Friday morning through Saturday afternoon.   Family members are welcome to attend receptions and keynotes free of charge.
