Podcast appearances and mentions of Otto Scharmer

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. Working with Otto Scharmer and colleagues, she brings her background in the arts, meditation, and social justice to creating “social presencing” that makes visible both current reality and emerging future possibilities for individuals and groups. She is currently on the core faculty of 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

Tony Nec was born and grew up in Malawi, a small country in southeast Africa, in 1957. As a teenager, he attended a school in England run by Catholic monks where he first experienced the power of Gregorian chant. While at university in the 1970s, he was inspired by Tibetan monks to participate in a structured meditation program, involving visualisation, mantra chanting and silence. In the mid-1980s he participated in various workshops and personal development courses, including mountaineering with the Outward Bound Trust and shiatsu with Elaine Liectie in Glasgow, Scotland. Between 1988 and 1981 he studied for a Diploma in Shiatsu and Oriental Medicine in Bristol, England with Keith Philips. He also holds a Certificate in Meta-Coaching from the International Society of Neuro-Semantics led by Michael Hall and a Diploma in Sacred Sound Therapy from the Colour of Sound Institute (now called The Sound Healing Academy) with Rachael Burnett. He has been involved with the Integral movement since 1995, following the work of Jean Gebser, Ken Wilber, Marilyn Schlitz and Jorge Ferrer, among others. He studied Integral Transformative Practice with George Leonard at the Esalen Institute, Big Sur, California and Theory U with Otto Scharmer at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Boston. Tony also studied intensively over 5 years with Rob Preece, a psychotherapist, artist, Buddhist meditation teacher and author, based in Devon, England. In 2011 Tony co-founded Wise and Thrive , an international company based in England and is the Principal of The Sound Healing Academy and co-director of The Sound Therapy Shop.

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.

FS69 Social Presencing Theater with Rosie Cripps   In this episode Nikki talks to Rosie Cripps, a facilitator and evaluator who helps build social movements and evaluate complex systems, about Social Presencing Theater. They talk about: What Social Presencing Theater is, its origins and some of the tools and techniques that sit under it; The role of the facilitator in creating psychological safety and responding in the moment without knowing the details of the issue being explored; How Rosie first experienced Social Presencing Theater and what interested her about it; “with social presencing theater, you can get to the crux of the matter so quickly, and so, kind of precisely, and so clearly see what needs to change without barely exchanging any words at all.” A workshop that Rosie ran with Ann Nkune at the IAF England and Wales conference using the tool “Stuck”; “Some people said it made them not just think differently, but feel differently”. How this experience led Rosie to attending a recent Social Presencing Theater course and the learning from that experience; Rosie's thoughts on how to take this forward, including a call out for collaborators; A full transcript is below.

My name is Nikki Wilson (N.W), and my guest today is Rosie Cripps (R.C). So welcome Rosie.   R.C Hi, thank you for having me.   N.W So to start off with, could you tell us a little bit more about you and what you do?   R.C Yeah. So I'm a facilitator and an evaluator. I help build inclusive community-led movements and as part of this, so I've helped teach architecture students, Appreciative Inquiry, and I've been exploring the idea of universities as anchor organisations to help communities become resilient and self-sustaining. And I evaluate kind of complex, messy systems. And I usually do that using outcome harvesting, which uses lots of facilitation. So in summary, I kind of help build social movements and evaluate complex systems.   N.W Great. And so today, we're going to be talking about Social Presencing Theater. So for listeners who don't know what it is, Please, could you tell us a little bit more about it, and how a typical session might work?   R.C Okay, so this is very different from my day to day work. First of all, Social Presencing Theater uses mindfulness, movement, and reflection, to create quite dramatic shifts in perspective. So it can be used at an individual level, or with teams, with big organisations, or in quite complex systems around social justice issues, or climate change, or something like that. It was created by Arawana Hayashi, and she's a dance teacher. But it's mainly been applied across sectors by someone called Otto Scharmer. He's an academic at MIT and he basically coded what are the principles of innovation, and he turned them into a theory called ‘Theory U'. And that's all open source, because he wants as many people as possible to be tackling the complex issues of our time. But they together, Otto and Arawana, they co founded the Presencing Institute, and they use Social Presencing Theater as a means for helping people to progress past habitual thought patterns and into these principles of innovation in whatever context they're in. So I personally find Social Presencing powerful, because you can work through very kind of tricky issues where we might feel stuck or unable to move forward very quickly, sometimes taking you to a place of being more stuck. But at least you have different insight. But without having to reveal at any point, what the issue is or what the tricky situation is. And it can be also very bonding for the people who are doing it. So your group that you're working with, it's very bonding, even if you're working with a complete group of strangers.   N.W And so how might a typical session run?   R.C Yeah, a typical session. So this is tricky, because I'm new to it. And there's also lots of different methods that sit under it. Some individual based tools and techniques, and some are for very large groups. But they think the way that Otto Scharmer mainly uses it with kind of fortune 500 companies and big organisations is he uses something called 4D mapping, which was co created by I think Otto Scharmer, and Arawana. And people who also use organisational constellations, and people who use presencing more generally. And 4D mapping, basically, you map out a system using people. And then you sense together a different potential future for that system. So it allows you to see in kind of 3D what the system is currently looking like, and how it could potentially shift. And that can be really powerful. And systems mapping, because it's very malleable. I like traditionally in systems mapping, I would kind of draw out a system, and it's very fixed. Whereas in this situation, you're sensing together as a group, where are the opportunities for movement, and that can give a lot of insights into what should change.   N.W Okay. And so what would the role of the facilitator be in that environment? And how would that be different from other types of facilitation? Would you say?   R.C Yeah, I think, I think in that context, because you don't always know what the actual topic is, there's kind of two parts to it. So one is it's about making the situation safe, because I think generally, we're not used to moving as a society. We're not used to using movement and so the psychological safety is really important. And then the other aspect is you're going in blind. So you're kind of sensing the room as opposed to, in a normal situation, you can be kind of tracking the flow of the room by listening to people in their conversation them expressing what's, what's going on. Whereas in this context, it's much more about sensing what's happening in the room. And responding to that in that moment. So it's quite different actually supposed to be a lot more emotionally responsive to what they would normally be as a facilitator, I think.   N.W And, and as you've said, this is quite different to the kind of tools and techniques and facilitation work you'd normally do. So when did you first come across Social Presencing Theater? And what was it that interested you about it?   R.C So I was reflecting back recently about which of the workshops and where are the places in my life where I've had the biggest personal transformational shifts, and which have been the workshops that have made those shifts last, and they've all involved movement. And so there's two workshops I've been to in my life. The first was in my early 20s, which is kind of a week-long workshop which involved movement. And, again, involved no talking. And then I volunteered at the Never Done Before Festival, which is run by Myriam Hadnes's community, and just stumbled across a Social Presencing Theater Workshop. And in that workshop, it was online, it was only like an hour, I think.  It was people from all over the world who had never met before. And yet, even in that very short amount of time, we just did some small movements.You know, just sat at my desk, and then also some group movements just in breakout rooms, and it totally shifted my perspective. And I felt incredibly close to the people that I'd been working with, even though I'd never met them before and it was all through a computer. So it kind of made me think, Okay, I'm personally finding this stuff really powerful and interesting. But is that you know, other people's experiences. And before kind of, like throwing myself into that, I guess I really wanted to explore that further, and see if other people were getting these shifts and transformations as well. Which is why, and then I started talking to Megan Evans, he's been a kind of mentor to me, and to Ann Nkune, who I know, to a shared love of Appreciative Inquiry and time to think. So I just literally read Arawana's book, and then suggested to Ann that we run a session at the IAF Conference, which we did this year. So that's kind of how I came to it, it's not been a planned route. But I found it personally very powerful. And it's also linked in to actually, after I had children, I started dancing. And I had a complete shift really, again, in my perspective, when I just I think I lived so much in my mind, when I started dancing, I had this dance teacher who didn't teach us kind of choreographed moves, he just taught us how our body wanted to move. And I didn't know if you can actually even call it dance, it's probably just me moving around terribly, but I found it really powerful and healing, just getting out of my head and into my body. And I think that's a lot of what this is about. It's about just getting rid of those habitual thought patterns and kind of living in our minds all the time. And being in our bodies and noticing that our bodies have a lot of wisdom and knowledge that we just waste, we just waste. And the thing I found with social presencing, is we spend so much time talking especially you know, as in groups, as facilitators, we see so much talk and conversation. Whereas with social presencing theater, you can get to the crux of the matter so quickly, and so, kind of precisely, and so clearly see what needs to change without barely exchanging any words at all.   N.W Okay. And so you've mentioned that you ran a session at this year's IAF England and Wales conference,with Ann Nkune, and so could you tell us a little bit more about that?   R.C Yeah, so I mentioned earlier, there's, there's quite a lot of tools that sit under social presencing theater. So our IAF conference workshop focused around a method called ‘stuck' and in that you take a situation where you're not moving or thriving or something's not moving forward, or maybe you're just kind of stuck in your comfort zone and you you're not really willing to step out. And you embody that situation in whatever form you want to take. You form a statue and you call that sculpture one and then you kind of sense in your body you let yourself move to a different future. that wants to emerge through you. You move to a second position, and then you call that sculpture two, and you give each sculpture a phrase. And that in itself sounds very bizarre, but is very powerful. So for instance, the other day, I had a situation where I had to report a huge amount of data to a group of people. And I was feeling incredibly overwhelmed. And so I put myself in this stuck position where I had my kind of arms up in front of my head, and was almost crouching down, and my word was overwhelmed. And then I moved into a second position, which gave me a lot of clarity. And I had another phrase, which was, they need to make sense of it. And so I in my head, I've been getting stuck over and over with trying to make sense of all these overwhelming amounts of data, when in actual fact, it kind of shift the perspective straight way for me in that I didn't need to be making sense, but I just needed to be presenting them with data. So that's just an example of where you might use stuck. So we use stuck. And then you start off working through your own stuck practices, even from sculpture one to sculpture two. And then you extend that out as a group. So in our workshop, and in most social presencing situations, we don't at any point, know what issue someone is working through. So you'll do your sculpture one to sculpture two on your own, and then you extend that out as a group without explaining what it is that you're working through. And the other people in our group will help extend out our stuck situation. So they become other players in the system. And they help enhance that feeling of stuck, and also give a different perspective on it. So So in my situation where I was stuck with feeling overwhelmed with all this data, I might have someone standing in front of me who's representing all the hundreds of interviews that I've done. And then I might have someone stood behind me, who is representing the people that I have to show all this data to. And then we would move together as a group, so they wouldn't know what this issue is about at all, but they might look at me and say, You look pained or, or I'm seeing confusion, something like that. And then we'd all move together with no idea where each other we're going to move or any sense of where we should move, we just move wherever feels right at the time. And then we'll move collectively together into a second sculpture. And then again, they'll give their perspective on the situation. So they might say, you know, you look freed or relieved or something like that. And the other people's insights can be just as valuable as your own. And I think for me, and our IAF session, that was what people found most powerful is working through something as a group, without anyone in the group knowing what it was about, except for that one individual. And even though as a group members, for example, I've done this a number of times, even in situations where I don't know what the person's going through, I can personally find it very moving as well. I think just by moving together as a group is very bonding in itself and illuminating. So we did that at the IAF conference, we did this stuck on our own and then stuck as a group. And then we use time to think, to reflect on what those processes felt like to the groups involved.   N.W Okay, and so you've mentioned, I think that this session was for you a bit of an exploration of how to use this. So what were your personal kind of takeaways from that session?   R.C I think there were a lot of takeaways, actually. I think the main thing was that it was something other people found powerful. So I went in thinking, okay, is this just me, in fact, I was there the night before in my hotel, and I was thinking, Oh my gosh, what am I doing? Because I'm going to a conference I've never been to before, co facilitating with someone I've never met before, on a subject that I've only read a book about. You know,I didn't know whether this is going to be something that anyone else would get anything from at all. So the main takeaway was, oh, wow, okay other people are finding this useful as well. And I think having spoken to a few people after the conference, they said, you know, it's one of the sessions where they were able to go deepest. And again, I think that's because they didn't have to talk about anything that they were kind of working through. So as a facilitator that's quite strange because you're kind of blind to all of that. But it's really nice to be able to create a space where people can work through some quite tricky personal issues. So yeah, there was that, that it was helpful. Some people said it made them not just think differently, but feel differently. And that, you know, someone else mentioned that there's something that they've been talking to people about for months and months and months, and just couldn't see a way out of this situation that then had done that, and then could instantly see a way through. So I was like, Okay, great. I feel like it's, it's a useful tool. So that was the main thing. I also noticed that maybe it isn't for everyone, and getting the context is going to be right. And I think for Ann and I, we both kind of felt that we recognise that it was probably more powerful, like using movement is more powerful than we originally expected. And thinking about how we prepare the room for the emotions, it can trigger as well, I think is quite important. But yeah, just the overwhelming thing I took away was the kind of desire to experiment with other people more, to try it out with other people more. And so then that evening, I think went back to my hotel room and signed up to a course in Berlin to properly train in it.   N.W Great. And so you've neatly led into my next question, really, about that course, and what happened on the course? And what did you learn there?   R.C Yeah, so the course was a two day course with Arawana Hayashi herself. So that was really exciting, because she kind of founded it all. And it was with 43 other people from all over the world, actually, but mainly from Europe. I think there were four people from the UK. And we went through all the different types of techniques, which she describes in her book called Social Presencing Theater. And yeah, it was, it was just incredibly insightful. There were lots of different techniques that we tried out, some, you know, just on our own, some as a whole group of 43 people, some in small groups, all that can be used in different contexts. And again, I think by the second day all of us were just feeling like, why would you bother talking anymore? It just seems like such a waste of time, when you can kind of get so much clarity and connection with others in silence, you know, just by moving together. But it's called Social Presencing Theater, but it's not about theater, it is just about moving and embodying. There's no acting element to it. There's nothing theatrical actually about it at all. It's just a way of using, thinking with our bodies as well as our minds. Yeah. So the training was fantastic, gave me loads of ideas and met loads of connections, lots of people who were also thinking about using it in all kinds of leadership scenarios. And actually some massive issues about, you know, tackling climate change and deforestation in the Amazon and all these different frameworks, people using it for and all of them finding it ,yeah, a really interesting method of breaking just habitual thought patterns and approaches to situations and thinking about things really differently.   N.W Okay. And so I know that you, you weren't on the course very long ago. So this might be a difficult question to answer. But what are your current thoughts on how you might take it forward and put it into practice? Yeah,   R.C Yeah, so I think main thing at the moment, which is very much just a thought process, to help serve this, but Ann and I are thinking about experimenting, doing another session at London Lab, which is linked to the London IAF group. So we're thinking about doing that in maybe September or October. And I'm personally thinking about how I built it into my work with systems thinking and systems mapping. So it's part of the evaluation work I do, we do a lot of systems thinking work. And I think using it in that context is really helpful, because it's a really malleable way of looking at how we can change and shift systems, but also even the stuck practice, which is just within individuals. You know, through all my systems based work, the one thing that stands out is that unless we change people, you know, we can't change systems. And the stuck practice itself is a way of really helping people shift their perspective on their role within a system and what they can do individually to change things. So yeah, I'm thinking about how I can build into my work. And I'm also just looking for as many people as possible to collaborate with who'd like to experiment with Ann and I on this.   N.W Great. And you mentioned earlier that in your IAF session, you combined this with time to think, are there other kinds of facilitation tools and techniques that you think could work well alongside social presencing theater if you're building this out into something you would use in other contexts?   R.C Yeah, I would say on that, that Ann and I used time to think at the end of the session, and we were also thinking about it from an Appreciative Inquiry perspective, because that's what both of us use primarily in our work. Having said that, at the training, it really shifted my perspective, because I think one of the things which they tried to focus on with social presencing is, is moving out of these habitual thought patterns. So they just focus on what did you do? What did you see? What did you feel? And so I think probably, I wouldn't use time to think with it anymore, possibly, or maybe use elements of time to think that not, not use exactly the same principles. And I think that also relates back to the psychological safety element as well, you're never really conceptualising with anyone, what it is you're working through, maybe not even yourself. And I think that's actually helpful, because we get so bogged down in our thought patterns. So I think keeping it very just in the moment in your body, like touching, not overthinking anything is quite important with the process. So yeah, what tools would I use it with is possibly Appreciative Inquiry, maybe as a precursor to that. And then systems mapping and any group work where you're working through individual challenges collectively as a group, maybe it's support groups or something like that.   N.W That's great. So if listeners would like to find out more about social presencing theater, where should they look?   R.C Okay, so there's a book by Arawana Hayashi called social presencing theater. I think it's called The Art of Making a True move. There's also a website. So Arawana has a social presencing theater website, which is really interesting. And then there's also this wider context of ‘Theory U'. So Otto Scharmer, and Arawana have a website called the U-school, literally the letter U hyphen school. And that gives a wider framework to the work as well, which is, they have loads of open source training as well, which is really interesting, if anyone was interested in that.   N.W Brilliant and how about if people want to get in touch with you after this? Particularly as you've got a call out there for collaborators and fellow experimenters as it were.   R.C Yeah, probably just LinkedIn is best for me.   N.W Excellent. Well, thank you so much, Rosie. That's been really interesting. And I hope to hear more about where you, where you take this forward. But thank you for sharing where you've got to today so far.   R.C Thank you so much. Thank you for having me. And I look forward to hopefully hearing to some people who are interested in experimenting.   Outro   H.J So listeners, we've reached the end of another episode of facilitation stories, the community podcast of IAF England and Wales.   N.W If you'd like to find out more about the IAF and how to get involved all of the links on our website facilitationstories.com   H.J To make sure you never miss an episode, why not subscribe to the show on whatever podcast app you use.   N.W We're always on the lookout for new episode ideas.

In this conversation with choreographer and performer Arawana Hayashi we explore the dynamic transformational possibilities of social presencing theater; bringing experience into expression, moving as a social body, harnessing social presence and speaking in shapes. Arawana Hayashi's pioneering work as a choreographer, performer and educator is deeply sourced in collaborative improvisation. She currently heads the creation of Social Presencing Theater (SPT) for the Presencing Institute. Working with Otto Scharmer and colleagues at the Presencing Institute, she brings her background in the arts, meditation and social justice to creating “social presencing” that makes visible both current reality and emerging future possibilities. Her recent book, Social Presencing Theatre is available now. Visit coachesrising.com to see our acclaimed online coach trainings and other offerings.

I sin bok ”Bubbelhoppa – En metod för att förstå andra” tipsar Emma Stenström om hur du får genuin kontakt med andra människor och ökar tilliten, på jobbet eller med din familj och dina vänner. DI-krönikören, docenten och den prisade läraren på Handelshögskolan i Stockholm har en vision av ett mänskligare samhälle. Där kan du lämna dina mest invanda och destruktiva bubblor bakom dig, i en tid av transformationshets, AI-hysteri, ökad polarisering och höga stresspåslag. Grupperna som du identifierar dig mest med styr ditt beteende, oavsett om du är en frälst viktväktare eller nybakad handelsstudent. Otto Scharmer är en av Emmas hjältar. Han framhåller att vi har ett val. Vi kan närma oss varandra, eller behålla både avstånd och fördomar. Sinnet är som en fallskärm. Det fungerar bara när det öppet. En som undersökt det här med att ha ett öppet sinne är Adam Grant professor i psykologi vid Wharton. Att bubbelhoppa är enligt honom ett sätt att öppna sinnet men han har konkreta råd i din tappning Boken täcker även konflikthantering. Det är bättre att ha en konflikt och bråka på ett bra sätt hellre än att bevara problem, där ingen är nöjd. För att bidra till Bubbelhoppning bjöd vi på mingel i ett samtal mellan Bohmans VD Erik Haglöf och Emma om boken och hur den kan påverka kommunikation i vid bemärkelse.

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. Thinking in Dark Times is a podcast series by UkraineWorld. This series seeks to make Ukraine and the current war a focal point of our common reflection about the world's present, past, and future. We try to see the light through and despite the current darkness. UkraineWorld is brought to you by Internews Ukraine, one of the largest Ukrainian media NGOs.

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.

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.

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...

Welcome to the 55th Episode of the #100MasterCoaches​ Show. In this episode, Mel interviews Laura Fierro Evans, MCC from Mexico. Laura contributes to building cultures in which all the voices of a system are listened to and are being listened; in which the wills align towards achieving a common goal, and collaboration and caring for each other constitutes the prevailing spirit. She is the founder of Hagakure Leadership and Coaching, a company that supports leaders in transforming their organizational cultures through building collective intelligence. She promotes that leaders move from “Ego-centric to Eco-centric” approaches, as described by Otto Scharmer in his U-Theory. She helps leaders in two ways: first, to gain a view of the whole system they work in so they can reconnect to their purpose, and second, to discover their incredible inner richness through having a dialogue with their inner "voices" or "selves" that allow them to become leaders of their own inner team. Laura has coached hundreds of officials from different United Nations Agencies since 2009 across the globe and is currently training Regional Senior Leaders of the World Health Organization (WHO) in Coaching Competencies for the Health Transformation in Africa. She is also an author of two books: “

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!

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. A few resources to go along with this episode: Theory U Model The Essentials of Theory U: Core Principles and Applications (2018) Leading from the Emerging Future: From Ego-System to Eco-System Economies: Applying Theory U to Transforming Business, Society, and Self (2013) Theory U: Leading from the Future as It Emerges: The Social Technology of Presencing(2nd ed., 2016) Presence: Human Purpose and the Field of the Future (With Peter Senge, Joseph Jaworski, & Betty Sue Flowers; 2004) Presencing Institute Website Theory U - Learning from the future as it emerges video Leadership Meets Life Podcast is for leaders who want to grow both professionally and personally.

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  

Laurent est un dirigeant hors du commun, un tisseur de lien qui prend soin, un amoureux de la nature et des sciences du vivant. Nous avons voulu faire témoigner Laurent car il incarne pour nous le Leader qui a réussi à réconcilier performance et durabilité, respect du temps long et cadence du temps court, écoute et prise de décision, introspection et extrospection. Laurent allie les contraires plus qu'il ne les oppose et son parcours en témoigne. Pendant 11 ans en Pologne Laurent part d'une feuille presque vierge pour bâtir et développer la filiale Pet Care de Mars. Puis en Allemagne, il prend la direction d'une filiale bien établie et se donne pour challenge de la transformer pour retrouver de la croissance et de la performance. Maître des équilibres subtils, Laurent nous inspire par sa vision très humaine et vivante du Leadership. Dans cet épisode, on peut ressentir le calme d'un leader bien ancré et aligné ainsi que la joie et la passion de "créer des équipes engagées, motivées, reliées, qui aient la capacité d'avoir une vision globale de l'entreprise. Oser essayer en marchant, oser diriger et respirer, oser parler vrai. Parler vrai à ses collaborateurs, à ses clients, à sa hiérarchie. Ensemble nous avons parlé de leadership, de l'importance de l'écoute et de la confiance. Laurent nous l'exprime avec ses mots : "le rôle du Leader n'est pas de dire ce qu'on a à faire mais d'engager, motiver et libérer les énergies dans l'entreprise." Un leader c'est aussi une personne capable de créer des espaces inclusifs d'écoute pour permettre la collaboration, la co-création au service de toutes les parties prenantes et du bien commun. Une vraie bulle d'oxygène, un petit espace de sérénité que Laurent créé en nous partageant ses tipping points ! Les conseils que nous avons retenus ? Bien s'entourer, donner du temps et des outils à l'équipe pour se connaître) Ne pas vouloir tout transformer en même temps : choisir l'endroit et le rythme Confiance ne va pas sans responsabilité et s'exprime dans un cadre de fonctionnement très clair. Le rôle du dirigeant est d'être le garant du cadre co-défini. Diriger c'est aussi savoir écouter ses propres émotions, ses besoins. C'est avoir le courage pour pouvoir dire "je ne sais pas ou aujourd'hui je ne suis pas bien". Prendre le temps est une discipline ! Prendre des décisions éclairées nécessite de rester avec la problématique le plus longtemps possible. Ne pas courir à la solution. Prendre le temps d'explorer toutes les facettes du problème et rester dans cette zone d'inconfort pour s'imprégner complètement de la problématique. Avoir un plan de déploiement de la transformation n'empêche pas de s'adapter, de ressentir ce qui émerge. Les tipping point de Laurent Sa rencontre avec Alain Guillemin, CEO de Mars au début des années 2000 qui prône confiance et libération des énergies au sein de l'organisation. Otto Sharmer & la théorie U : prendre le temps de l'écoute, respirer pour percevoir les graines du futur qui sont déjà présentes dans l'organisation. Reinventing Organization, Frédéric Laloux : c'est pour Laurent la confirmation que les transformations de l'entreprise basées sur sur une approche globale de l'écosystème, sur la confiance, l'autonomie et l'écoute ça fonctionne ! Rencontre avec Simone Veil à Carcovie pour l'anniversaire du camp de Auschwitz. La force du vivant vient à nouveau frapper Laurent comme une évidence. Nelson Mandela : c'est dans sa prison en Afrique du Sud que Laurent ressent la vibration de la vie, sa volonté de relier des choses casées, la puissance et l'énergie avec lesquelles Nelson Mandela a oeuvré pour le bien commun. Laurent vous recommande Leading from the emerging future, Otto SCHARMER and Katrin KAUFER Théorie U, l'essentiel, Otto SCHARMER Reinventing Organization, Frédéric Laloux (version illustrée) Un business responsable, les leçons tirées de 40 d'expérience de Patagonia, Yvon Chouinardet Vincent Stanley POUR NOUS SUIVRE, en savoir plus sur nos invités et les ressources qu'ils nous partagent : Instagram Linkedin  POUR NOUS AIDER ET CONTRIBUER à construire un monde meilleur : 5* et un gentil commentaire sur Apple Podcast pour nous faire connaître !

Otto Scharmer understands the stages of consciousness that are necessary to achieve transformation – whether that be transformation of the self, transformation of a group initiative, transformation of a business, or systemic change.  His Theory U training is a step by step exploration of these stages in different settings.  An economist by training, his application of Theory U to our economic system provides one of the clearest blueprints of how to move “from an old paradigm of economic thought that revolves around ego-system awareness to a new paradigm that revolves around eco-system awareness, by which I mean focusing on a compassion-based well-being of all, the well-being of the whole” His work at MIT's Presencing Institute “activates a means of learning that connects people to their deeper sources of creativity—that is, to their capacity for intuiting and then actualizing emerging future possibilities.” Matt Stinchcomb is the cofounder of The Boatbuilders, a new initiative that provides financial, strategic, and tactical support to organizations, projects, and communities working to build a more resilient future in the Hudson Valley. Prior to this, he was the Executive Director at the Good Work Institute, a nonprofit organization with a mission to cultivate, connect, support, and illuminate a network of people and initiatives working towards Just Transition in the Hudson Valley.  Before heading up the Good Work Institute, Stinchcomb was the VP of Values and Impact at Etsy.com. In that role he oversaw the stewardship of the company's mission, and worked to give all employees the means and the desire to maximize the benefit their work has on people and the planet.Stinchcomb serves on the Board of Directors for the Schumacher Center for a New Economics, Hawthorne Valley Association, and The Good Work Institute. He is a graduate of Oberlin College and lives in Rhinebeck, NY with his wife and children.

In a few hours we'll transition to the New Year. As I do every year as what was comes to an end, this is a time to look back over everything that has happened in the preceding twelve months and prepare for those ahead. Sometimes I've put together a “best of” list for the year, but the idea of doing that any more is like asking which of my children I love more. Each one shines in their own particular moments, and, in the end, I do love them all equally, so this year I want to highlight some episode that provides an overview of the many places we explored together in 2018. The first was with Fred Provenza when we used his book Nourishment to talk about diet and reclaiming our nutritional wisdom. Though we stayed focused on food and the three main influences he's identified that cause us to like a particular taste, underlying that conversation was a discussion of self-care and seeing to the wellbeing of our mind, body, and spirit. What we can do to make the choices that really are the best for ourselves. To recognize that any path suggested by another is just a model and we have to make those choices, guided by our own intuition and the advice of others we trust. Related to those ideas of making our best choices were the pair of conversations with Victoria Redhed Miller who walked us through her work on Craft Distilling and the steps required to make booze at home. One of the most significant issues was of legality and we took nearly an hour to cover her journey and the problems that arose along the way so that we can make an informed decision, should we follow in her footsteps, and know that many of our practices, for better or worse, are illegal. Knowing the bounds of those laws, we can seek to change them by getting involved politically. Making that choice was the basis of the most controversial and commented on episode of the year, the discussion with Joshua Hughes about permaculture and politics. Whether or not you agree with his particular take on this issue and what the best ways to be politically active really are, we certainly pushed the edge of the conversation about what permaculture ethics in practice can look like to influence policy or action. David Bilbrey, who joined me this year as an ongoing co-host, builds on the ideas discussed with Joshua regarding the public sector with a look at the private. He does this through his discovery of the intersection between permaculture and business, which was highlighted by a visit to the ReGen18 conference where he met with and recorded many short interviews with regenerative business thought leaders, include Stuart Cowan and Kevin Jones. He also met and had a moving conversation with Kanyon Coyote Woman about Indian Canyon, Decolonizing, and Indigenous Value Systems. His work at ReGen18, also lead to the final interview of this year, an extended discussion with Joel Solomon about how to transform our current financial system. I encourage you to seek all of those out, as well as David's interview with the founder of Theory U, Otto Scharmer. The show that set the tone for the entire year was the episode that started us off when my friend Wilson Alvarez spoke about his work with The Reintegration Project, which is hosted at The Horn Farm Center in York County, Pennsylvania. Together we talked about how to restore the landscape by mimicking four ecosystem engineers: wolves, beavers, ancient humans, and the proboscideans. Through that hands-on work, he also shared how the act of landscape restoration reconnects human beings to the spaces we once tended, to the garden of Earth, and the bounty of the world. Later in the year I visited Wilson at the project and recorded a walking tour of The Reintegration Project, where you can see this work in practice and see the places, and hear the stories of the people, transformed through nurturing activity. Visit the 2018 Episode Index You'll, of course, find links to that video and these episodes in the show notes for this end of year recap. You'll also see a link to a public post on Patreon of the 2018 Episode Index, which is a chronological list of all 40 interviews released this year. From those episodes, there are also some books that I would like to recommend to you, ones not written by the authors who appeared on the podcast. These are all books I read this year and think you should read in 2019. The first is Braiding Sweetgrass by Robin Wall Kimmerer. Robin weaves together her personal heritage with her love of plants and the environment with prose that border on poetry. As I hope to interview Robin in 2019, I'll save any further discussion until then. Second is Coyote America by Dan Flores. I came to learn of Dan and this book as he wrote the forward to one of my favorite books of 2018, Eager by Ben Goldfarb. In Coyote America Dan weaves together a tale that takes us from creation myths to the modern day, and how the Coyote is indicative of humanity's relationship with the world. At times humorous and haunting, this is one of the best pieces of nature writing I've ever read and place it on the same level as Rachel Carson or Aldo Leopold. Finally, is Atlas of a Lost World by Craig Childs. Though I don't always enjoy his writing style or forays into his personal journey, Craig more than makes up for this with the places he takes us and evidence presented for how long humanity has populated the Americas. This book serves as a companion to tie together other narratives by guests like Kanyon, or other books worth reading like Robin's. These three books are all written as stories that you can sit down and enjoy for the pleasure. For reference and inspiration, which is pleasing in it's own way, thanks to the art by Brenna Quinlan and art direction of Richard Telford, get a copy of David Holmgren's RetroSuburbia (Australia) (North America) This is an absolute magnificent permaculture book for where most people live: in and around cities. It has also supplanted the Designers' Manual as my initial go to when looking for ideas and solutions. You can listen to my earlier interview with David Holmgren to learn more about RetroSuburbia. I've also asked co-host David Bilbrey to sit down and record an interview with David Holmgren so the two of them can dig into this rich text from David Bilbrey's perspective, and to add a different voice to the conversation since I've already recorded several conversations with David Holmgren in the past. Along with that David and I are taking your feedback from the past year to plan for the next. As we've spent a lot of time on the social and economic sides of permaculture, we're bringing on guests with experience in more practical areas, including homesteading, more natural building, ethnobotany, and propagating plants. We also already have some interview recorded and in production on the business of mushroom spawn, community building, spoon carving and coppicing, and more.
