Led a country-wide strategic planning

Led a country-wide strategic planning and change management process in Liberia as part of the transition towards integration between Oxfam GB and Oxfam International. The three-month process involved approximately 40 staff, including five international staff, government and local partners, with specialist consultants supporting selected areas. I led the major part of the process, resulting in a new country strategy launched in January 2011 and significant organisational restructuring implemented throughout the year. A key challenge was managing staff resistance and demotivation during the transition.
