MAD - Making a Difference

The key to leadership during a time of crisis

This is part 2 of a two-part series with Thomas ‘TJ’ Clynch of Civic Mind in Hartford, Connecticut, USA. Thomas founded Civic Mind in 2011 as the political and economic climate of the “Great Recession” created a market in demand for social impact through community organisation, creativity, and collaboration.

In this episode, Thomas dives further into the chequered story behind the redevelopment of Dillon Stadium. This includes how it has led Thomas into legal action with personnel at his local City council – twice! He then goes on to talk about public policy, before sharing his vision for how social equity and economic justice can be leveraged to build more compassionate, progressive and sustainable communities.

How to build more compassionate, progressive and sustainable communities

The important difference between social enterprise and social impact

Anne-Marie Cade is a Dispute Resolution Practitioner, an Accredited Mediator, a Divorce and Parenting Coach and a Family lawyer who is passionate about people and relationships. She wants to change the way families experience divorce and separation, and help them transition through to their new life in a calmer, kinder and more respectful way.

In this episode, we discuss how Anne-Marie works with clients to empower them to reach a peaceful, amicable separation and stay out of the Family Court, believing this approach will ensure a positive outcome for the family. We also discuss how she works with parents who want to reduce the conflict and improve their co-parenting relationship so the kids are happier, healthier, feel safe and secure.

We then move on to discussing Anne-Marie's role as a local municipal councillor; relate a story of a famous conflict resolution guru's local government experience that went bad and; land on some effective behaviours to arrive at the best outcomes.
