We need help! For transformations
Our world is changing, inside and outside of ourselves.
For climate and crises answers, we need to step into the extraordinary and then hold that with the ordinary.
We need help!
I recently participated in the Action Research Plus coLAB Developmental Leadership for Transformations. It’s about helping myself, us, ourselves to realise the shifts we can make, changes and leaps to answer crises such as climate change.
Why?
See the video here> or read below
…Our thinking patterns are changing,
shifting from environment OR economy
to both-and: environment AND economy
and…
Well, it’s not quite that simple
This is developmental, a step change in our mental complexity
Consciously synthesizing emotional and financial,
subjective feelings and objective metrics such as too much CO2.
Consequently, we need help—to believe in agents of change,
ourselves, and give you-I-us hope and support.
The coLAB, Developmental Leadership for Transformations, did that. coLabs, and consciousness of our feelings and thoughts, helps us step into the extraordinary and then hold that with the ordinary.
New perspectives…
Transformational grounding.
Check out the video here > Great music—and you’ll see a physical journey, into and out of ourselves and our known worlds.
