Podcast appearances and mentions of Otto Scharmer

Selamat datang di Podcast INIKOPER, ruang belajar bagi kita yang berani mengambil peran lebih dari sekadar pelaksana tugas. Dalam episode kali ini, kita akan menyelami sebuah identitas baru bagi para ASN muda terpilih: Ecosystem Builders atau Perawat Ekosistem. Kita akan membahas bagaimana peran ini menuntut kita untuk bekerja layaknya miselium jamur di lantai hutan—bergerak dalam senyap, merajut koneksi yang terputus, dan menyalurkan "nutrisi" kepercayaan di tengah kompleksitas birokrasi dan tantangan lingkungan yang kian tidak menentu. Dunia tempat kita mengabdi hari ini bukan lagi kolam yang tenang, melainkan lautan badai yang penuh gejolak. Kita menghadapi era TUNA dan BANI, di mana masalah deforestasi dan kerusakan lingkungan tidak lagi bisa diselesaikan dengan cara-cara mekanistik masa lalu. Di episode ini, kita akan mengeksplorasi mengapa pendekatan kontrol kaku ala mesin sudah usang, dan bagaimana kita harus beralih memandang organisasi serta hutan sebagai sistem hidup yang dinamis. Bersama-sama, kita akan belajar untuk tidak takut pada kekacauan, melainkan merangkulnya sebagai pintu gerbang menuju tatanan baru yang lebih lestari. Lebih dari sekadar wawasan teknis, episode ini adalah undangan untuk transformasi diri. Kita akan membedah bagaimana kualitas kepemimpinan kita sangat ditentukan oleh kondisi batin kita sendiri—dari kemampuan mendengar secara mendalam (Deep Listening) hingga keberanian untuk hadir utuh (Presencing) menyambut masa depan. Dengan memadukan pemikiran Otto Scharmer, Margaret Wheatley, dan Daniel Pink, kita akan menemukan bahwa menjadi pemimpin masa depan bukan hanya soal kecerdasan otak, tetapi juga soal kecerdasan hati dan tangan untuk menenun kolaborasi yang berdampak nyata bagi hutan dan masyarakat.

Magnetisch statt beliebig: Unternehmen, die Menschen anziehen, die wirklich passen – wie Kund:innen, die bleiben. Genau darum geht's in dieser Folge. Christian Conrad bringt 30+ Jahre Erfahrung aus Konzernen, Unternehmertum und Kulturtransformation mit. Wir reden über Vertrauen als Startpunkt, über Zahlen, die überzeugen (NPS & Fluktuationskosten) und über Mikro-Skills, die jede Führungskraft ab heute üben kann. Dafür braucht es keinen Zauberstab, aber einen klaren Prozess mit spürbarer Wirkung. Damit du deinen Beitrag leisten kannst, zu einer wirklich vertrauensvollen und damit attraktiven Unternehmenskultur. „Mitarbeiter Engagement ist kein Gefühlsthema, sondern ein Produktivitäts-Hebel.“ (Christian Conrad) Highlights der Folge: - Retention statt Recruiting: Warum „Farming“ wertvoller ist als dauerndes „Hunting“. - Vertrauenskultur: 100 % Vorschuss-Vertrauen – und konsequent handeln, wenn es missbraucht wird. - Engagement messen: NPS als einfacher Hebel, Fokus auf 9/10 („emotionale Verbundenheit“). - Drei Führungs-Skills: Verbinden-Zuhören, Positive Bestärkung, Feedforward. - Business-Case Kultur: Es lohnt, die verdeckten Kosten von Fluktuation & Einarbeitung realistisch zu rechnen. - Veränderung meistern: Teamlernen, gemeinsame Priorisierung, Impro-Prinzip „Ja, und …“. „Kultur ist kein Event. Kultur ist Training.“ (Christian Conrad) Impulse für die Leadership-Praxis: - Verbinden-Zuhören (täglich 10 Min.): Gespräche ohne Lösungsreflex. Ziel: Missverständnisse senken, Vertrauen heben. - Positive Bestärkung (situativ): Beobachtung → Wirkung → Frage: „Mir ist aufgefallen, dass … Das hat … bewirkt… Wie sind Sie vorgegangen?“ - Feedforward-Routine (wöchentlich): Zwei Personen außerhalb des Teams um je 1–2 Tipps bitten. Keine Diskussion, nur Danke. - Kultur-KVP (monatlich): Ein kleines Team ritualisiert 2–3 Mikro-Maßnahmen pro Monat – sichtbar, messbar, abgeschlossen. - NPS-Check (quartalsweise): Promoter-Gründe stärken, Passives gezielt entwickeln, Detraktoren sicherer machen. - „Ja, und …“ im Meeting: Einwände in Anschlussideen übersetzen, statt sie abzuschmettern. - Teamlernen in Veränderung: Ein Projekt gemeinsam über die Ziellinie bringen – Verantwortung rotieren, Lernen explizit machen. Reflexionsfrage: Welche eine Gesprächsgewohnheit ändere ich ab heute, damit mein Team sich gehörter fühlt – und woran messen wir in 30 Tagen, dass es wirkt?

Ep. 203 (Part 2 of 2) | In this rich, delightful, and profound conversation, Integral Theory informed Father David McCallum, SJ, currently serving the Catholic Church as executive director of the Program for Discerning Leadership, leads us into a world filled with mission, purpose, and service, foundational to which is the practice of discernment. David describes discernment as the capacity to exercise good judgment, hold complexity, and wait for clarity. This is not only a practice for individuals, he explains, but also a communal one, providing a way for communities to discern and design together the future they want to create—through listening, dialoguing, participating. Discernment is a way of knowing and making sense of reality, David continues, and especially important now in this era of changes and choices to be made.David enlightens us as to the beautiful and far-sighted reforms proposed by the late Pope Francis, who was all for changing the balance of authority and participation in the Church; for people to have direct experience of Presence and the capacity to practice discernment; who also advocated for taking swift action on behalf of our planet, even calling out the part in the Bible that says man has dominion over the Earth. From David's description of “the journey worth making”—surrendering, opening, accepting divine grace and love—to using Otto Scharmer's U Process to help find the courage to change and simplify our lives for the benefit of all, to the Church's relationship with A.I., David provides us with an extraordinarily mind-broadening, motivating, and spiritually fulfilling perspective.

Hari ini, banyak ahli kepemimpinan sepakat bahwa pengaruh sejati bukan karisma sesaat, melainkan tindakan jangka panjang yang berakar pada integritas. Kepemimpinan yang kokoh selalu dibangun di atas kepercayaan, sebuah fondasi yang perlu diuji dan dibuktikan melalui konsistensi tindakan. Kepercayaan ini menjadi modal utama seorang pemimpin. Maxwell merangkum ekspektasi pengikut melalui tiga pertanyaan: "Apakah kamu menyukaiku?," "Bisakah kamu membantuku?," dan yang paling fundamental, "Bisakah aku mempercayaimu?" Inti motivasi pemimpin haruslah pelayanan bagi pengikut, bukan sekadar kekuasaan atau keuntungan pribadi. Pemimpin yang melayani menggunakan keunggulannya untuk memastikan kemenangan tim, bukan kemenangan diri sendiri. Motif pelayanan sangat penting karena kepemimpinan yang berorientasi gelar hanya menarik individu yang belum matang secara emosional. Daniel Goleman menekankan bahwa kecerdasan emosional adalah kompetensi kunci bagi pemimpin yang efektif. Pemimpin wajib memiliki kesadaran diri yang tinggi agar mampu mengendalikan dorongan dan perilaku impulsif. Presencing (Presence dan Sensing) adalah praktik kepemimpinan transformatif yang dikembangkan oleh C. Otto Scharmer. Ini adalah kapasitas unik untuk merasakan dan mewujudkan potensi masa depan tertinggi yang ingin muncul melalui diri kita. Pemimpin yang ber-Presencing bertindak dari niat (intention) yang jernih, bukan sekadar mengulang pola pikir lama (downloading). Keaslian dimulai dari kejujuran diri, yaitu memahami sepenuhnya kekuatan dan kelemahan yang dimiliki. Meskipun demikian, Herminia Ibarra mengingatkan bahwa terlalu kaku pada satu "jati diri sejati" bisa menghambat kemauan untuk berkembang. Mengikuti saran Peter Drucker, keberhasilan maksimal hanya tercapai jika seseorang beroperasi dari kekuatan dan metode kerja alaminya. Mitos "ikuti gairah Anda" perlu dilengkapi dengan realitas bakat atau keahlian yang nyata. Jika tidak berbakat, jadikanlah gairah sebagai hobi agar kecintaan itu tidak hancur oleh kegagalan profesional. Marcus Buckingham menekankan bahwa manajer hebat berfokus pada kekuatan unik setiap karyawan untuk memaksimalkan kinerja tim secara keseluruhan. Beralih dari pemain terbaik menjadi seorang manajer adalah transisi yang sulit dan sering kali membingungkan. Linda A. Hill menjelaskan bahwa manajer baru harus menggeser fokus dari pencapaian individu ke keberhasilan yang dicapai melalui interdependensi tim. Mereka harus segera belajar mengelola konteks dan hubungan dalam lingkungan kerja secara menyeluruh. Manajer pemula sering keliru mengasumsikan bahwa kekuasaan mereka bersumber dari otoritas posisi. Padahal, pengaruh sejati lahir dari kredibilitas yang dibangun melalui karakter, kompetensi, dan keteladanan yang konsisten. Jika fondasi kepercayaan rapuh, upaya memaksakan kepatuhan pada staf berbakat hanya akan menemui kegagalan. Salah satu hambatan terbesar adalah delegasi, karena manajer pemula khawatir kehilangan kontrol atau terlihat tidak penting. Analogi "Monyet di Punggung" mengajarkan pemimpin untuk secara sadar mengembalikan inisiatif (agency) kepada staf, sehingga manajer dapat fokus pada waktu diskresionernya. Tindakan ini krusial untuk menumbuhkan akuntabilitas tim. Maxwell menegaskan bahwa promosi tidak seharusnya diberikan sebelum seseorang berhasil melatih pengganti mereka sendiri. Prinsip ini memastikan calon pemimpin memiliki kemampuan dasar untuk mengembangkan potensi orang lain. Carol Walker menyarankan agar perusahaan secara eksplisit memberikan penghargaan kepada manajer yang sukses dalam membina dan mempromosikan stafnya. Dalam komunikasi, prinsip Ramsey sangat jelas: "Menjadi tidak jelas berarti menjadi tidak baik," karena kejujuran menuntut keberanian untuk menyampaikan kebenaran. Kejelasan yang penuh kasih diperlukan agar semua orang memahami realitas, standar, dan arahan yang berlaku, mencegah ketidakjelasan menimbulkan kekacauan. Banyak insentif tradisional seperti kenaikan gaji atau fasilitas hanya menghasilkan pergerakan jangka pendek, didorong oleh imbalan eksternal. Frederick Herzberg berpendapat bahwa motivasi sejati berasal dari dalam, muncul dari rasa pencapaian, tanggung jawab, dan pekerjaan yang menantang. Pemimpin harus memperkaya peran kerja, bukan sekadar memperluas tugas, untuk mengaktifkan potensi ini. Pemimpin wajib memberikan umpan balik yang membangun secara teratur, lugas, dan tepat waktu, tidak menundanya hingga akhir tahun. Umpan balik bertujuan memberdayakan karyawan, meningkatkan keterampilan, dan mendukung jalur karier mereka. Kritik harus selalu berfokus pada perilaku yang dapat diubah dan bukan menyasar kepribadian. Kepemimpinan efektif memerlukan empati yang mendalam, secara sengaja mempertimbangkan perasaan anggota tim saat mengambil keputusan sulit. Lencioni menambahkan bahwa pemimpin harus berani "menderita lebih banyak" untuk kebaikan kolektif, siap terluka demi melindungi timnya. Pengorbanan adalah harga dari tanggung jawab kolektif. Membengkokkan sinar perhatian kembali ke diri sendiri adalah praktik sentral Presencing untuk menumbuhkan kesadaran (awareness) yang lebih luas. Pemimpin harus berlatih mendengarkan secara generatif, menangguhkan penilaian, dan membuka hati untuk merasakan dinamika sistem secara keseluruhan. Kualitas hasil kolektif berbanding lurus dengan kualitas "tanah sosial" yang ditanam oleh pemimpin. Kegagalan adalah bagian tak terhindarkan dari pertumbuhan, sebagaimana ditekankan oleh Maxwell. Respon adalah kuncinya: "Kegagalan yang Baik (Good Miss)" menghasilkan pembelajaran dan penyesuaian, sedangkan "Kegagalan yang Buruk (Bad Miss)" lahir dari penolakan tanggung jawab. Chris Argyris menyebut proses ini sebagai pembelajaran double-loop, kemampuan merefleksikan dan mengubah asumsi mendasar. Resiliensi adalah kemampuan krusial untuk bangkit dari kesulitan besar. Individu yang tangguh menunjukkan penerimaan realitas yang kuat, menolak optimisme buta yang menyesatkan. Resiliensi juga muncul dari penemuan makna di balik kesulitan, yang menciptakan jembatan harapan untuk membuat tantangan saat ini terasa tertahankan. Mengingat waktu adalah sumber daya terbatas, pemimpin efektif harus mengelola energi, bukan hanya waktu, melalui pembaruan yang sistematis. Dorongan untuk bekerja berlebihan menyebabkan kelelahan dan ketidakfokusan, merusak kinerja. Ritual pembaruan yang disengaja, seperti istirahat berkala dan nutrisi seimbang, adalah kunci untuk kinerja berkelanjutan. Transformasi sistem menuntut pemimpin melampaui ego-sistem (fokus pada diri) ke eko-sistem (fokus pada keseluruhan). Ini berarti beralih dari persaingan menuju ko-kreasi, mengintegrasikan perhatian, niat, dan tindakan pada tingkat keseluruhan, yang merupakan inti dari kepemimpinan eko-sistem Scharmer. Akhirnya, keberhasilan jangka panjang dibentuk oleh jangkar pribadi yang kuat, melampaui pencapaian profesional semata. Maxwell menegaskan definisi utamanya: dicintai dan dihormati oleh orang-orang terdekat. Investasi yang selaras dengan esensi batin dan tujuan hidup akan menjamin kebahagiaan yang mendalam dan abadi.

Do you really listen to ignite transformation, or are you listening to respond? When we think about our journey as a coach, one of the most powerful realisations has been that listening is not a passive act. It is an intentional, transformational choice that shapes the depth and quality of our conversations. In this episode we revisit listening as a critical coaching skill. Out of more than 200 episodes, we've only devoted 1 to listening before, which shows how easy it is to overlook this essential foundation of coaching. We explore what it means to listen not just with our ears but with our eyes, intuition, body, and presence. We reflect on Nancy Kline's idea that listening well is not about preparing your next response but about igniting something in another person. From the earliest stage of self-focused listening to Otto Scharmer's concept of generative listening, we walk through the levels of listening and share how they show up in coaching and everyday life. We reflect on moments when clients have asked us, “How did you know that?” They hadn't explicitly told us something, but deep listening allowed us to hear what was unspoken. That level of listening is about creating a space where clients can feel deeply seen and heard, sometimes hearing themselves clearly for the first time in a long while. We also challenge the myth that one level of listening is “good” and another “bad”. Context matters. For example, neurodivergent clients may experience listening as most supportive when a coach shares something of their own in return. Listening, then, is not linear. It's about attuning to the needs of the individual in front of you. This episode is both practical and reflective. We discuss summarising with the client's own words, listening for emotion as well as content, and noticing the subtle shifts in tone, silence, or energy that can reveal deeper truths. Listening is not just about technique, it is about presence, compassion, and the courage to step aside so the client's voice can emerge. If you've ever wondered what sets coaching apart from everyday conversation, this episode highlights why listening is the art and science at the heart of transformational coaching.   Timestamps: 00:50 – Why listening is the foundation of coaching 01:20 – Nancy Kline's perspective: listening to ignite, not to respond 03:11 – Listening with eyes, body, and intuition 05:02 – Helping clients hear themselves clearly 07:25 – Why context matters: different listening styles for different clients 10:40 – The difference between listening in coaching vs everyday conversation 13:28 – Listening beyond words: noticing silence, energy, and emotion 16:20 – The role of presence and unlearning in coaching conversations 19:36 – Giving clients time to find and hear their own voice 21:01 – Practising transformational listening in everyday life   Key Lessons Learned: Listening is not about waiting to respond, it is about creating space for transformation. Different levels of listening exist, from self-focused to generative, and each has a place depending on context. Deep listening involves presence, intuition, and attention to both what is said and what is unsaid. Coaching requires unlearning conversational habits such as rushing to fix, summarising for ourselves, or inserting our own agenda. Presence and listening go hand in hand, true transformational listening helps clients reconnect with their own voice.   Keywords: Transformational listening, levels of listening in coaching, Nancy Kline listening, generative listening, coaching skills, deep listening, presence in coaching, active listening techniques, emotional listening, effective coaching conversations,   Links & Resources: Take the quiz to find the right coaching qualification for you: mycoachingcourse.com Join The Coaching Crowd Facebook community: search for

A conversation with Sohail Inayatullah and Otto Scharmer remembering Johan Galtung, a Norwegian sociologist and the principal founder of the discipline of peace and conflict studies exploring who he was and what he meant to them on their work.

Too many leaders miss the opportunity to have impact when it truly matters: the transformation that takes place when someone feels genuinely heard. This is especially important during turbulent times. It's not just about reacting to a crisis, it's about pausing for a moment to listen deeply. Without it, leaders risk isolation, poor decisions, and missed opportunities.   Martin Farrell, crisis coach and bestselling author of “Good Leaders in Turbulent Times: How to Navigate Wild Waters at Work,” reveals how listening becomes a lifejacket for leaders navigating chaos. Drawing on decades of global experience with organizations like the British Red Cross and UN Climate Change Secretariat, Martin shares the pivotal moments and practical strategies that help leaders spot early warning signs, create safe spaces for tough conversations, and transform crisis into connection and growth.   In this episode, discover the story behind the ‘penny drop' moment, when someone knows they're truly understood. Martin gives insight on subtle warning signs before a crisis occurs and also shares excerpts from 138  pieces of his advice in his book. Learn how mastering listening in turbulent times can turn wild waters into opportunities for lasting impact.   "Do we want to react and retaliate, or do you reflect and respond?" – Martin Farrell   SUPERPOWER Notes: 02:45 – What he realized the time he first noticed the power of listening: Working with coach Nancy Klein for 14 years, where she would listen for an hour and a half with complete presence, even during his silent moments and times of distress 06:30 – The transformative experience of being truly heard: How Nancy Klein's listening created a space where he felt special and important in that moment, demonstrating the profound impact of dedicated attention 08:15 – Supporting leaders in crisis: His work with UK charity chief executives who were at risk of losing their jobs, providing support "until the end of the chapter" through primarily listening rather than advice-giving 11:20 – The power of being present in wild waters: Using the metaphor of someone in wild waters with crocodiles around, and how having someone experienced nearby who won't drown provides crucial support 14:30 – From crisis support to storytelling: How his current work involves interviewing people who've processed their experiences to create anonymous advice for others still in crisis 17:45 – The journey of writing "Good Leaders in Turbulent Times": How the book took eight years to complete with six different manuscripts, and the importance of authentic vulnerability in helping others 22:10 – Career background in civil society: Six decades of working in charitable organizations, from teenage years through international work with UN agencies and climate change initiatives 26:40 – The book's unique structure: Five chapters featuring nine characters over seven years, showing the progression from missing warning signs to integration and wisdom 29:15 – Chapter one - missing the signs: How all the warning signs were present but the characters weren't listening to or acting upon them, using the powerful question "What do you know now that you will discover in a year's time?" 32:50 – Listening to weak signals: The importance of becoming adept at noticing and paying attention to early warning signs before they become crises 35:20 – The 138 pieces of advice: Four categories throughout the book - watch out (red flags), remember this (truths to hold onto), consider this (suggestions for action), and secret sauce (personal stories) 38:45 – Theory U and letting go/letting come: How silence and stillness are essential for touching the source of inner knowledge and emerging possibilities 42:30 – Practical advice for listening to inner signals: Go sit by a river or in a quiet place, use scrap paper for uncensored writing, and allow the process to unfold over 8-9 pages until clarity emerges 46:15 – The "no mud, no lotus" principle: How working with distress and discomfort can produce beautiful outcomes when you know how to process them effectively 48:20 – Developing your support network: The importance of having trusted people around you before crisis hits, and Martin's participation in seven different support groups 51:30 – Live Well, Die Wise grief circles: Creating ceremonial safe spaces with candles, poems, and intentional grounding to allow deep sharing and discovery 53:45 – How to connect with Martin Farrell Key Takeaways:    "My ultimate freedom is to respond to whatever you do to me." – Martin Farrell "Here is someone who had no agenda other than being with them and listening. And that was powerful." – Martin Farrell "Even if you're not naturally interested in other people, you can fake it till you make it. Start being interested, and then you get more interested." – Martin Farrell "Particularly with those who are in distress, that is an enormous gift... I noticed the power of being there. I was going to say just being there, but it's not just, it's being there and being present." – Martin Farrell Notes/Mentions: Nancy Klein (Martin's coach for 14 years)- https://www.timetothink.com/  Theory U and Otto Scharmer's Presencing Institute https://www.presencing.org/theoryu  "Good Leaders in Turbulent Times: How to Navigate Wild Waters at Work" by Martin Farrell: https://mybook.to/GoodLeaders and https://practicalinspiration.com/book/good-leaders-in-turbulent-times Live Well, Die Wise grief circles Deep Adaptation Forum Steven Appleby (illustrator of 41 drawings in the book) Connect with Martin Farrell: Website: https://www.martinfarrell.org/  Substack: https://martin228.substack.com/  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/martingfarrell  Connect with Raquel Ark: www.listeningalchemy.com  Mobile: + 491732340722  contact@listeningalchemy.com LinkedIn Substack listening ALCHEMY newsletter Podcast email: listeningsuperpower@gmail.com  

Di episode kali ini, kita menyelami sebuah pertanyaan krusial di zaman yang penuh disrupsi, dengan membedah buku "Presencing: 7 Praktik untuk Mentransformasi Diri, Masyarakat, dan Bisnis" karya C. Otto Scharmer dan Katrin Kaufer. Kita akan membahas argumen sentral mereka bahwa tantangan global—mulai dari krisis iklim hingga polarisasi sosial dan lonjakan masalah kesehatan mental—berakar pada tiga perpecahan fundamental: antara diri kita dengan alam, dengan sesama, dan dengan potensi tertinggi kita. Ini bukan sekadar krisis, melainkan sebuah persimpangan jalan eksistensial yang menuntut cara pandang dan cara bertindak yang baru. Inti dari pembahasan kita adalah konsep radikal bernama "tanah sosial"—dimensi tak terlihat dari kualitas hubungan, kesadaran, dan niat kolektif yang menentukan semua hasil yang kita lihat di dunia. Kita akan mengupas bagaimana kita sering kali terjebak dalam siklus "Absencing" yang destruktif, yang didorong oleh ketidaktahuan, kebencian, dan ketakutan. Sebagai penawarnya, kita akan menjelajahi siklus "Presencing" yang regeneratif, sebuah jalan yang membuka kita pada keingintahuan, kasih sayang, dan keberanian untuk mewujudkan masa depan yang lebih baik. Lalu, bagaimana cara kita secara praktis mengolah "tanah sosial" ini? Episode ini akan menguraikan tujuh praktik transformatif—mulai dari seni mendengarkan secara mendalam hingga dialog yang menyembuhkan dan prototipe kolaboratif—yang dapat diterapkan oleh siapa saja, di mana saja. Ini adalah panggilan untuk bertindak, sebuah undangan untuk secara sadar memilih regenerasi di tengah ketidakpastian dan bertanya pada diri kita sendiri: "Bagaimana jika ini adalah momen yang tepat saat kita dilahirkan untuk membuat perbedaan?"

Willkommen zum Finale unserer Mini-Serie zur Theorie U von Otto Scharmer! In dieser Folge geht es um nichts Geringeres als die Frage: Was macht Führung heute wirklich wirksam? Und: Welche Kompetenzen brauchst du als Coach oder Führungskraft, um Wandel nicht nur zu begleiten – sondern zu ermöglichen?

Theorie U – Teil 2: Die 4 Ebenen des Zuhörens In der letzten Podcastfolge haben wir dir die Theorie U von Otto Scharmer vorgestellt – ein Modell für echten Wandel in Führung, Coaching und Gesellschaft.

This week we're exploring embodiment science in education with some of the worlds leading embodiment practitioners and cognitive scientists! We believe that this is one of the most important shifts happening in education globally, which is simultaneously so simple, and yet so hard to budge given the depths of the tendencies towards disembodiment, especially in the Western tradition, that we explore. Joining Tim in this fantastic conversation are:Arawana Hayashi heads the creation of Social Presencing Theater (SPT) for the Presencing Institute.

Theorie U – Ein neuer Blick auf Führung, Coaching und Wandel Warum tun Menschen oft genau das, was sie vermeiden wollten? Warum scheitern viele Veränderungen – obwohl der Wille da ist? In unserer neuen Podcastfolge stellen wir dir ein Modell vor, das Führung, Coaching und Organisationsentwicklung revolutionieren kann: Die Theorie U von Otto Scharmer.

In dieser Folge geht es um eine Fähigkeit, die im Bereich Leadership oft unterschätzt wird – und doch alles verändern kann: Zuhören. Nicht nur mit den Ohren, sondern mit offenem Verstand, offenem Herzen – und offenem Willen.Ich stelle dir heute die vier Ebenen des Zuhörens nach Otto Scharmer vor und zeige dir, wie du als Führungskraft nicht nur besser verstehst, sondern Räume öffnest – für Vertrauen, Entwicklung und echte Veränderung.

"Reboot Business" podcast host Julian Devaureix interviews Otto Scharmer, a senior lecturer at MIT and creator of Theory U, about navigating the current radical transformation of the business world due to social, energy, and environmental demands. Scharmer discusses systems thinking as a way to understand interconnected global crises like ecological damage, socioeconomic inequality, and mental health issues, emphasizing that these are symptoms of deeper disconnects. He introduces Theory U as a framework and set of tools for achieving organizational and societal change by shifting consciousness and enabling systems to see and sense themselves more fully. The conversation highlights the power of attention as crucial for individuals and leaders to intentionally shape the future and move from reactive patterns to co-creative action, advocating for personal awareness practices, deep listening in small groups, and aligning work with purpose to foster widespread change starting at the individual level.Hosted by Ausha.

As you will know if you've listened to previous episodes, this podcast is really about the central question of the kind of education (formal and informal) that we need to support and enable us all, but most importantly our young people, to transition effectively through this historical period of massive flux and change. There are many people around the world putting language to these shifts and offering guidance to leaders, and organisations for how to navigate them. But few are doing this as prominently and at such a scale as my guest this week. Otto Scharmer's substantial work with MIT, Theory U and the Presencing Institute for the last few decades has been helping leaders embrace cross-sector systems transformation. To quote his 2007 book on Theory U, his work opens up pathways for "dealing with the resistance of thought, emotion, and will; and intentionally reintegrating the intelligence of the head, the heart, and the hand" in the context of leadership, decision-making, and almost any kind of collaborative work.Otto Scharmer, a Senior Lecturer at MIT and Founding Chair of the Presencing Institute, has dedicated the past 20 years to helping leaders embrace cross-sector systems transformation. Through his bestselling books Theory U and Presence (the latter co-authored with Peter Senge and others), Otto introduced the groundbreaking concept of "presencing" — learning from the emerging future. He also co-authored Leading from the Emerging Future, which outlines eight acupuncture points for transforming our economy from egocentric to ecocentric. His most recent book The Essentials of Theory U (2018) summarizes the core principles and applications of awareness-based systems change. He co-founded the MITx u-lab, which has activated a vibrant worldwide ecosystem of transformational change involving more than 250,000 users from 186 countries. In collaboration with colleagues, he co-created global Action Learning Labs for UN agencies and SDG Leadership Labs for UN Country Teams in 26 countries, which support cross-sector initiatives for addressing urgent humanitarian crises. Born and raised near Hamburg, Germany, Otto's early experiences on his family farm profoundly shaped his vision. From his father, a pioneer of regenerative farming, Otto learned the significance of the living quality of the soil in organic agriculture, which inspired his thinking about social fields as the grounding condition from which visible transformations emerge. Like a good farmer who cares for the soil, Otto believes responsible leaders must nurture the social field in which they operate. He emphasizes that shifting our economic operating systems from extractive to regenerative requires innovations in leadership support structures for shifting mindsets from ego to eco. Building that infrastructure is the purpose of the u-school for Transformation. Otto earned his diploma and his PhD in economics from Witten/Herdecke University in Germany. He is a member of the UN Learning Advisory Council for the 2030 Agenda, the Club of Rome and the World Future Council. He has won the Jamieson Prize for Teaching Excellence at MIT and the European Leonardo Corporate Learning Award. In 2021, he received the Elevating Humanity Award from the Organizational Development Network.

Conteúdo ruim e desagregador, que nos empobrece mentalmente.”Brainrot” significa “apodrecimento mental” e foi eleita a palavra do ano pelo Dicionário Oxford. Qual o papel da comunicação pública para que em 2025 possamos eleger uma palavra melhor? Em tempos em que nunca tivemos tanta conexão tecnológica, paradoxalmente nunca estivemos tão desconectados de nós mesmos, de pessoas que pensam diferente de nós e também da natureza. Nessa pílula, vamos acompanhar cinco ideias principais de “reconexão” para que possamos ter um 2025 mais agregador e com mais respeito e união. As cinco formas de reconexão apresentadas no episódio são: 1) Compromisso com conteúdo de qualidade 2) Interação humana e empática nos canais de comunicação 3) Criação de espaços de participação e diálogo 4) Reflexão sobre nossas ideias próprias e originais 5) Reconexão com a natureza  Abaixo, a transcrição do trecho do livro “Teoria U” de Otto Scharmer, lido durante o episódio: (...) Um senso social profundo de que toda humanidade está ligada por um vínculo ou campo tácito, invisível Um senso democrático profundo de que, por fim, toda a legitimidade flui a partir de estruturas que viabilizem a participação inclusiva Um senso cultural e espiritual profundo de que estamos em uma jornada para nos tornar quem realmente somos - tanto individual quanto coletivamente.  O denominador comum dessas percepções é uma visão do ser humano como um ser de liberdade - como um ser que é definido pela capacidade de fazer a escolha entre atuar de modos habituais e conectar-se com a fonte mais profunda de criatividade, ação ética e liberdade.

Send us a textn this episode, we navigate the seemingly random (yet deeply connected) threads of creativity, coaching, and the questions that unlock meaningful conversations. We begin with an observation, cats are very smart, and let curiosity guide us through the complex landscape of creation, thought partnership, and the power of listening.You'll learn:Why creation is rarely fun in the beginning, and how bad ideas are often the first step toward great ones.How mind mapping can sharpen your focus, helping you ask, “What areas do I need to focus more on?”Why ChatGPT is like a smart intern, brilliant, tireless, and totally lacking common sense, and how to use it as a thought partner in your writer's room or creative process.The difference between coaching and consulting, the righting reflex, and how hierarchy undermines sustainable leadership.How to transform a rigid Q&A into a dynamic conversation using Otto Scharmer's Theory U 4 levels of listening.Why “never worrying about asking the right question again” starts with following your intuition, curiosity, and what's real in the moment.We also unpack the subtle art of engagement, evidence, and empowerment, exploring how questions open doors, but what matters most is how you walk through them. Along the way, we examine the link between intrinsic motivation and discipline, the nature of status in leadership, and, because life is gloriously random, the phenomenon of Ally McBeal.If you've ever wondered how to ask better questions, listen more deeply, or trust your creative instincts, this episode will leave you curious, empowered, and ready to dive in.Takeaway Quote: “A conversation isn't an interview. It's the art of showing up, listening, and creating something together in real time.”Visit us at:www.theselfhelpantidote.com

Looking at the state of our world, says Dr. Otto Scharmer, it's plain to see that there's something wrong with our collective decision-making. How, then, do we move from just reacting against the issues of the past, toward sensing and actualizing the future that is wanting to emerge? That is the profound question at the heart of this podcast featuring the renowned MIT lecturer, author of Theory U, and contributing faculty member to Sounds True's Inner MBA® program.  In a bold conversation that speaks directly to both our individual empowerment and the larger societal changes that are becoming increasingly urgent, Tami Simon and Otto Scharmer discuss: the collective sense of depression and disillusion at this time; reframing a fearful cultural narrative to one of hope and possibility; bridging today's ecological, social, and spiritual divides; ego-system awareness vs. ecosystem awareness; big changes through small steps; the subtle shift of “opening the will”; letting go of what's not essential; moving from certainties to not knowing; Social Presencing; courage; why transformational work and activating our potential is easier than we think; creating a “holding space” and allowing generative forces to come forth; attention, intention, and agency; the invisible yet vital part of our social field—the quality of our relationships; deep listening; the awakening of the human spirit; and more.

How can we think about the future today - and learn from it? How is the war influencing our thinking and action? Why are societies polarized, and can we overcome this polarization? Volodymyr Yermolenko, Ukrainian philosopher and chief editor of UkraineWorld.org, speaks to Otto Scharmer, a German-born American intellectual who introduced influential concepts like Theory U and presencing in an attempt to learn from the emerging future and act in a more creative way. Otto Scharmer is a Senior Lecturer at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and Founding Chair of the Presencing Institute. Through his bestselling books Theory U and Presence (the latter co-authored with Peter Senge and others), Otto introduced the concept of “presencing” — learning from the emerging future.

Thomas is joined by Senior Lecturer in the MIT Management Sloan School, and the Founding Chair of the Presencing Institute, Otto Scharmer, and facilitator, systems change leader, intrapreneur, and strategist, Antoinette Klatzky. They discuss what Otto calls the “architectures of connection”-- the social systems and structures that can either be extractive and perpetuate violence and trauma, or be open and regenerative and enable healing. Thomas, Antionette, and Otto also explore how they've taken differing paths to the same conclusion; that all societies need collective healing spaces where intense emotions and experiences can be witnessed and creative inspiration for the future can emerge. Key Points: 00:00 Introduction 01:54 Healing as staying heart-connected 04:24 The lack of societal architectures for healing spaces 10:02 Cultivating our inner soil for regeneration 15:42 Social systems and the root of structural violence 21:55 Awareness of the social field 26:15 The presence of the circle being and how it works 35:10 The impact of acknowledging pain and trauma 39:37 The enabling conditions for healing   Sign up for updates by visiting our website:

Today's podcast was recorded live in Paris, in the shadow of the Eiffel Tower. As part of the wonderful ChangeNOW festival in the Grand Palais Ephémère I had the pleasure of sitting down with Otto Sharmer in the ChangeNOW podcast booth for an in depth conversation and journey into the future. Otto is the creator of the Theory U model of change, and spends much of his time teaching the model to groups around the world. The previous day he and I had both been speakers at the festival (you can see him here and me here). We also had a question from the audience from among those sitting outside the booth. My thanks to the organisers and to Otto for making this possible. I hope you enjoy it.

"¿Trabajar en equipo? Sí, claro, como si realmente pudiéramos confiar en alguien aquí".  "Por supuesto que vamos a resolver el problema. Después de todo, siempre somos expertos en encontrar soluciones que nadie implementa".  "Otra reunión sin sentido para discutir cosas que nunca se implementarán. ¡Qué emocionante!"  "No te preocupes, no espero que hagas algo bien. La mediocridad es nuestra especialidad".  "¿Oh, estás tomando la iniciativa? Seguro, sigue adelante, mientras el resto de nosotros observamos cómo te estrellas y aprendes la lección".  "¿Necesitas ayuda? ¿Acaso crees que alguien aquí está dispuesto a hacer algo más que mirar su teléfono todo el día?"  Estos son solo algunos ejemplos de frases de cinismo que aparecen a diario en los equipos de trabajo. Y aunque no siempre se verbalizan, SI se piensan. El impacto de este fenómeno es la imposibilidad de crear un espacio de empatía y trabajo en equipo.  Un sistema en el cual reina el cinismo termina generando a su vez pensamientos de miedo en las personas. Por ejemplo:  "No soy lo suficientemente bueno/a para este trabajo. Seguro que hay otras personas más cualificadas que podrían hacerlo mejor".  "Si cometí un error, todos pensarán que soy incompetente y no confiarán en mí para futuros proyectos".  "No tengo suficiente experiencia en esta área. Probablemente me descubrirán como un fraude en cualquier momento".  Según la Teoría U de Otto Scharmer, la solución a este problema es transitar desde un liderazgo desde el EGO a un liderazgo desde el ECO-sistemico.  Esta vez nuestra invitada es Laura Pastorini.  Laura es antropóloga y terapeuta sistémica, trabaja como consultora, docente y coach, facilitando procesos de transformación consciente para personas, equipos, organizaciones e instituciones.

Ceci est pour moi l'un des meilleurs modèles pour comprendre ce qui se passe dans le monde actuel et réfléchir à la manière d'y faire face : la Théorie U d'Otto Scharmer.

One World in a New World with Seamus Power - Founder, Powering Health An Apocalyptic Chat with host, Zen Benefiel, MA, MBA, Transformational Coach (https://BeTheDream.com) Seamus is a newcomer to exploring the realms of connectedness, rather rare in our guest book. His opening comments are insightful for viewers late in their careers who are beginning to wonder what's next. How do we evolve with consciousness? Perhaps its a heads up for the others, too. Seamus' snapshot view of his shift in awareness is quite profound; becoming an enlightened executive, if you will. It's refreshing to hear of the relevance of multidimensional perspectives in very practical terms. The interconnectedness of all things bubbles up from exploration in this apocalyptic chat. A rise in management levels at Hewlett Packard held conflicting allegiances, Seamus admits, and speaks to a plethora of considerations and decisions that affect people, places and things. He found the leaders that were most engaged with the employees were the ones most engaged with themselves, in their own growth. Seamus shares some key management strategies that reflect an awareness of connection that set up his further exploration into self-awareness after leaving the corporate world. His remarks about the transition are full of self-discoveries and insights worthy of exploration. Seamus and Zen share some experience with Otto Scharmer's (MIT) Theory U model and the activity of co-presencing and transformation. It's an intriguing segment you'll find beneficial. What would a fully present group be able to prototype. What's that? Listen in. It'll be worth your investment. Zen crafts a radically curious apocalyptic question that Seamus responds noting the technologies we have to measure, yet there's also an internal measuring system he's become aware of and the conversation deepens. Also a great moment to catch. Seamus brings his world-bridging awareness into practice throughout this apocalyptic chat. You'll enjoy the transition into a discussion about the body, brain, mind et al as a holistic system and how it might work if everything was hooked up appropriately. The spark in their conversation just might spill out. Thanks for showing up and giving us your precious time. Please do subscribe and share.

Jennifer England joins me today from her home in Whitehorse, Yukon. Jennifer, who is originally from Edmonton, is a leadership coach with a mastery in helping others discover their genuine 'being.' Jennifer started her intellectual journey studying feminist geography and working with some of the most wounded of Canadians in Vancouver's east-side. At 26, she took an executive position in the public service in Yukon , where she led a growing gender equality department, collaborating across the country to amplify policy change on housing, finance, health care, and education. She thrived in working across sectors to support the influence and power of self-governing First Nations and non-profits. She leaned into Response Based Practice, which centered the dignity, resilience and resistance of people to inequality in their lives.  After 15 years in this field, something else was calling her.  She felt the desire to align my growing passion for personal development (the inner life) at the convergence of social change and leadership. Increasingly sought after for support, advice and coaching by emerging leaders, she began to explore transformational approaches to social change with Robert and Judith Gass. Soon after, she discovered the work of Joanne Hunt and Laura Divine at Integral Coaching Canada and Otto Scharmer, at the Presencing Institute. During this time, she spent time studying from wisdom teachers like Cynthia Bourgeault and Thomas Keating. After 18 months of intensive study and practice, she received my Master level coaching certification from Integral Coaching Canada. Throughout her journey, she has been an integral part of systems change making at many scales and angles.  She has experienced exhaustion and heart-broken discouragement of slow change and the groundswell of  inspiration from community activists who make a difference. Her mission is to support the growth of awake and aligned leaders who want to give generously, lead from a place of deep alignment, and contribute to a thriving, loving and regenerative world.  You can learn more about her work and coaching Spark Coaching and her podcast Tension of Emergence --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/mark-anielski/message

Ep. 22 (Part 1 of 2) | Integral leaders Kateryna Yasko, Vytautas Bučiūnas, and Bence Ganti illuminate many of the most poignant and pressing questions of our time, brought to the fore by the ongoing war in Ukraine: Can postmodern people embrace a warrior consciousness when necessary? Are Russians, brainwashed by propaganda, who explicitly support the war worthy of compassion? Can people remain sane and humane while at the same time taking up arms? How can we handle the effects of the psychological trauma that will cascade over generations? And how do we prevent the mass delusion and psychosis that is so easily propagated via modern media technology? What are the global consequences of the Russian war on Ukraine? The trillions of dollars now being diverted to defense and military weaponry in the West are trillions of dollars that will not be spent on social programs, global health, education, climate change, and food—many people in Africa will starve as a result of this war on the breadbasket, wheat-producing Ukraine. What is wrong with democracy if its leaders can't step up to the plate, be authentic, strong, and stand up for what is right, while autocrats do whatever they please? A powerful, heart wrenching conversation asking the right questions, pointing towards the answers. Recorded April 15, 2022.  For more wrestling with the questions, and to share wisdom, ideas, support, and inspiration, there is IEC 2022 (Integral European Conference) this May online and in Budapest. And to donate directly to help the Ukrainian people via Kateryna and Vytautas using iAwake's Funnel to Help, Heal, and Support the Ukrainian People, see below. The reality is: “If Russia stops fighting, there will be no war. If Ukraine stops fighting, there will be no more Ukraine.” Topics & Time Stamps - Part 1Ukraine update: the level of trauma has grown very high in the last month, both inside and outside Ukraine, with the discoveries in Bucha and elsewhere (03:18) Everyone feels guilty: the people who have fled, the people in the cities, the people in territorial defense: everyone feels a strong need to contribute more (05:03) The West is consolidating; there's less naivete about Russia (07:45) People around the world can and need to contribute (09:34) True heroism is coming to the fore; this could be a wake up call for a lot of us (11:35) Bence Ganti, Integral leader and director of the Integral European Conference, talks about the situation in Hungary and the coming IEC in May 2022 (12:32) Kateryna's perspective on recent weeks: facing an overwhelming, multi-fronted battle on all levels, it's impossible to give yourself space to take care of yourself (15:40)  In Russia, children in school are taught only propaganda; refugee children are traumatized and don't speak the language of their host countries (18:28) Disappointment and frustration with opinion leaders, prominent intellectuals in the West, writing articles totally disconnected from the realities of the Ukrainian situation (19:55) Ukraine is slowing gaining agency on several fronts (21:35) This is a meta historic conflict; the West saying this conflict is their fault or the US' fault is going too far; Russia has been threatening Ukraine since before the US existed (24:40) Otto Scharmer's article about collaborative diplomacy is not good enough; it's abstract and divorced from the physical realities of the situation (27:52) The reality is: “If Russia stops fighting, there will be no war. If Ukraine stops fighting, there will be no more Ukraine.” (30:38) What is the most strategic response we can make in this situation to directly address this tragedy and its needs? (32:38) Children in primary school are very tuned in to the collective: smart teachers are using military analogies when teaching (35:12) We have to integrate the “red” stage of development in the educational system…we have to let boys play with guns and speak about it (37:40) We need an Integral...

Gabor Maté says that we choose belonging 100% of the time, over authenticity. Our self-critic keeps us ‘in check' and ‘likeable'. The part of us that feels criticised, ‘different', or struggles to connect, is the part that turns to something outside ourselves, in order to cope. So, here, I talk about the road to becoming more authentic and empowered, as a route to recovery of confidence, as well as from compulsion or codependency.If you want  help  with getting your confidence back, and to recover from comfort eating, join my next group: Next Comfort Eating Recovery 6-week programme - Only a couple of spaces left!Join my mailing list hereGet Control Back!

A transformational episode with a social transformer and thinker, Otto Scharmer. Hear in this episode from the creator of Theory U and the Presencing institute. The pandemic was a mirror of what is broken in our society. We all have a responsibility as leaders and change-makers to fix that, to improve the world, the planetary…More

Today, we're going to explore an approach to leadership and change that is one of my favorites. It's the work of Otto Scharmer, a disciple of Peter Senge and Edgar Schein at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. It's called Theory U.

The vision of The Leadership Project is to inspire all leaders to challenge the status quo.  We therefore pride ourselves on driving diversity of thought.In today's episode we do exactly that.  We bring in someone from an atypical source for a discussion on leadership.  Don Campbell is a sculptor and author of the book "Creativity: It's not what you think".  Whilst discussing leadership with a sculptor may seem unusual, there are many nuggets of gold in this interview about how to unlock your own creativity and the creativity within your team.Don shares his life story from graphic designer to sculptor and important lessons he has learnt along the way.We discuss the power of language and mindset; deep listening; emotional intelligence and voices that can prevent us from unlocking our full potential.This includes Don sharing with us the one word that changed his life forever.Don discovered the concept of Theory U and different levels of Deep Listening and uses this in his own work as well as inspiring creativity in others.Theory U was born out of Otto Scharmer of MIT and explores the process of creativity.Levels of Deep Listening start from just hearing what we already know (or perhaps hearing what we want to hear).  To unlock further levels of deep listening we must have an OPEN MIND ready to listen to new concepts; an OPEN HEART to listen and empathise with feelings; and an OPEN WILL to be willing to discover a new future of what is possible.Please do check out this episode as Don shares his wealth of knowledge so that you can apply this yourself and incorporate it into your leadership style.You can find a copy of Don's book at the following link:https://amzn.to/3y5FxhJ //-------------------------------------------------------//More information on The Leadership Project can be found at the following links:Follow The Leadership Project on all of our social channels as follows:To follow us on The Leadership Project you can find us on:LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/the-leadership-proj     Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/TheLeadershipProj     Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/theleadershipproj     Twitter - https://twitter.com/leadershipproj1      Website - www.mickspiers.com  YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCPG9X7weoI4Xs3SreZab1rQ
