Quality & Equality YouTube channel
Curated by the late Mee Yan Cheung-Judge, this “just in case” series of videos invites you to watch just in case you need to be reminded of… just in case you do not know… just in case you want to refresh your memory… just in case you want to know a topic better… etc. There is no specific theme to the series except that they are set up mainly for “low key” continuous development of Organisation Development Practitioners.
