Nick Osborne

Over the last 15 years, I have worked in a variety of management, leadership, training, consultancy or activist roles with a range of organisations including Changemakers, Shell, Amnesty International, the Ecovillage Network and Transition Network.

I have a BSc in Social Philosophy and MSc in Management Development and Social Responsibility. I now work as a Transition Trainer and freelance as a Trainer & Consultant, as a founder of Response-Ability, working to help people enhance their ability to respond creatively and flexibly to today’s challenging change and complexity.

I have been a member of Transition Glastonbury, UK since mid 2007, helped develop a network of Transition groups in Somerset and delivered and developed several courses for Transition Training & Consulting nationally to communities and organisations since late 2008. 

I have a written a course on developing group skills to support Transition in communities called Weaving Magic (for more information visit my profile on the Transition Learning Connections site: http://schoolofeverything.com/teacher/nickosborne or see the attached flyer).

I am currently working with Transition Training & Consulting to develop ways to support all kinds of organisations to make a paradigm shift; to become resilient organisations which are able to continuously adapt to a changing world while playing their part in sustaining the social and ecological sytems on which they depend.

I live in Glastonbury, Somerset, UK and am passionate about my family, social change and surfing.
