Bienvenue dans le podcast Pass the Mic où nous abordons des idées complexes et des questions difficiles avec des personnes curieuses, capables de remettre en question leurs propres croyances et de manière objective, à l'écoute des idées partagées des autres.Bienvenu dans l'épisode 29 avec Jean-Francois Noubel. Aujourd'hui, j'ai le plaisir de discuter avec Jean-Francois Noubel qui se décrit comme un être humain temporaire. Depuis plus de 20 ans, Jean-Francois travaille dans le domaine de l'intelligence collective, une discipline de recherche moderne qui explore le fonctionnement des systèmes vivants et l'évolution de notre espèce.Il travaille sur les prochaines cryptotechnologies qui permettront bientôt l'émergence d'organisations distribuées très intelligentes. Jean-Francois aide les leaders évolutifs à construire des organisations éclairées vers la société post-monétaire.Il est intéressant de noter que Jean-Francois vit dans une économie de don. Il y a plusieurs années, il a quitté tous ses postes et mandats et a déchiré son curriculum vitae afin de se libérer de toute étiquette et statut social. Cela lui a permis de bénéficier d'une liberté créative totale pour vivre dans le millénaire présent. Sa nouvelle voie lui permet d'accompagner les leaders évolutifs et de former des "humanonautes", ceux pour qui le terme "go hack yourself" désigne une manière d'exister.Contactez Jean-Francois Noubel:Website: https://noubel.com/en/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/user/jfnoubelTwitter: https://twitter.com/jfnoubel

Jean-francois helps evolutionary leaders build enlightened organizations towards the post-monetary society.Interestingly Jean-Francois lives in the gift economy. Several years ago, he left all his positions and mandates and tore up his resume in order to free himself from any etiquette and social status.With that, he gained full creative freedom to live in the present millennium. His new path allows him to help evolutionary leaders and train "humanonauts,” those for whom the term "go hack yourself” designates a way to exist.Contact Jean-Francois Noubel:Website: https://noubel.com/en/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/user/jfnoubelTwitter: https://twitter.com/jfnoubel

Today we'll try to understand what are the new emerging Leadership Models. with Celine Schillinger and Charles Matheus. It's clear to say that our global health crisis has put our leaders to the test and many failed not understanding the new societal values. As a result, the pandemic just gave many workers an opening to act on these shifting values. One of those is the way we see leadership. We used to believe that a leader was the one person having the ultimate power and authority without having to consult others.As a consequence, we've created a culture that is all about tangible results and high performing teams which no longer serves us because it's sacrificing our well-being and the well-being of our planet.Therefore, It's time to shift to a new leadership model, one in which each employee can succeed through their work and their creativity to lead a life of meaning and dignity.Our Panelists:Celine Schillinger, Author of "Dare to un-Lead", https://weneedsocial.com/Charles Matheus, Leadership speaker and host of the Remaking Manhood Podcast, https://www.charlesmatheus.comVirginie Glaenzer, Fractional CMO at AcornOak and podcast host, https://www.acornoak.net/You can also find the speakers on Twitter:@VirginieG @matheus_charles @celineschill

The pandemic gave us a chance to reflect on our education obsolete processes and methodologies: Based on our Industrial Revolution, our current system focuses on IQ in a one-size-fits-all model to “produce citizens ready to take part in employment processes that are destructive to the environment we live within” as Nora Bateson shared during our Episode #23. As a result, many people feel an urgency to find alternative models to better support their children's needs. We are witnessing across the world a number of education initiatives from individuals, teachers and parents to collectivities in cities and states. This diversity of initiatives is essential to create critical thinking and brings momentum through a snowball effect that is revolutionizing our education system. One of the challenges for people leading these initiatives is a feeling of loneliness. Today, we'll have a discussion with several founders of new educational initiatives and, in an unscripted discussion, our small group will attempt to address the following questions: 1. What is essential to learn in life?2. What behaviors do we learn at school traditionally aside from academic contents?3. How do your school or/and program support the essential learning in life and better suit students for the needs of our planet?OUR PANELISTSKristen Simonson, Founder of The Sage Creek Prairie School https://m.facebook.com/sagecreekprairieschool/https://sagecreekprairieschool.ca/ Max Noble, founder of Founder of TMAXRDwww.tmaxrd.educationwww.facebook.com/swiftcurrentcreationstationHeather McTaggart, Director of Unscholingschool.comhttps://www.unschoolingschool.com/https://www.facebook.com/groups/470352773920861

Our current education system is built on the Industrial Revolution model and focuses on IQ, in particular memorization and standardization, and a one-size-fits-all model. The pandemic offers a chance to reflect on habitual established processes and methodologies and question how they can develop the future of learning in education and the workplace. The education transformation is going to start with those who can let go of what it traditionally means to educate, teach, and acquire knowledge. A key point in the mindset shift will be to notice the difference between knowledge acquisition tasks and activities vs. learning experiences. In our twenty second episode, our guests discuss how the pandemic has disrupted our education model and the various emerging opportunities causing the world of education to experience a profound and attempt to answer the following questions:1- What might the lessons of the Pandemic be for a learning revolution?2- How do we re-instilling curiosity and persevere with creating new models?3- How do we unlearn the inertia, triggers, and cues of our formal education?Speakers:Shauna Anderson, Co-founder, President at USCHOOL.com, https://www.uschool.com/Nora Bateson, Award-winning filmmaker, writer and educator President of the International Bateson Institute, https://batesoninstitute.org/Luz Olid Diaz, Founder at Evolving Education and co-founder at Global Innovation Path, https://evolvingeducation.org/en/home/Joseph Callender, Agile and system thinker, https://www.linkedin.com/in/callenderjoseph/Virginie Glaenzer, Fractional CMO at AcornOak and podcast host, https://www.acornoak.net/You can also find the speakers on Twitter: @NoraBateson @ShaunaSSCS @JECallender @evolvingeduorg @VirginieG

Welcome to Pass the Mic Season Two! In our first season with 20 episodes, we gathered 4 to 6 people to tackle one question at a time in an attempt to challenge the status quo and our own beliefs on various topics like communities, mindfulness, rituals, trust, regenerative practices and many more.We brought together more than 60 passionate people to discuss: - What are the real powers of communities?- How can we overcome age discrimination? - How can leaders lead from their hearts?These are just some of the discussions, and as you can see the topics were wide but the questions precise. Our new season is called “A New Age of Conscious Leaders”.In this second season, we’ll be talking with CEOs, VPs, entrepreneurs and business managers who are mindfully letting go of the old paradigm, the patriarchal model, pyramidal economic view of the world to embrace a world of new possibilities.
