Take decisive action and bring about lasting change with our free, 90-minute workshop dedicated to exploring your most pressing challenges.
For us to deal with stark social and economic upheavals, three ingredients are essential:
01 Staying Open
Every situation is unique and requires a unique answer. Falling back on proven solutions and methods is an understandable human reaction.
However, using blueprints and best practices do more harm than good. It forces the situation to conform to the method, which is rarely successful.
Instead, we need to open ourselves to the questions a situation asks us and accept not knowing the answer right now, in order to uncover new ideas, deep wisdom, and true change.
02 Embracing complexity
Uncertain of where to begin, people often try to narrow down a situation to a single essential problem – the one they attempt to solve.
But problem-solving itself can be problematic: it often overlooks the dynamics, relationships, and interconnectedness that are crucial.
Instead of striving for simplicity, we need to embrace the complexity. Only then can we do justice to everything involved and find workable solutions.
03 Creating agency
Wisdom and creativity are found in those who are involved and affected.
The usual power structures prevent people from thriving and contributing and consultancy often reinforces these structures instead of dismantling them.
By creating agency and leadership and by empowering people to take change into their own hands, we generate fruitful realities where resilient organizations and communities can thrive.
The owners of a small store for organic food found themselves forced to close amidst a rapidly changing market.
After decades of change, a neighborhood was falling apart. Successive initiatives had failed to deliver lasting improvements, and local governors were at a loss for ways to cope with multiple intersecting problems that were tarnishing the lives of the community.

Organizations are the heart of how we structure our societies.
If we want to change the world, we need to create different organizations: ones that help to establish and support healthy paradigms.
All transformational work needs to take this into account, that's why we develop a newunderstanding of organizations and transformation.
Leadership and self-transformation
Leadership is, above all else, self-leadership: understanding one's own uniqueness, raising one's consciousness, and developing one's potential.
Integrity
It's our integrity that binds us to the well-being of all. A strong ethical approach creates space for our clients to thrive.
Equity and agency
By questioning power structures and striving for equity and agency, we can establish new, healthy and nourishing paradigms.
Everything is unique and alive
For deep transformation to take place, we need to understand the uniqueness of the situation.
