Events & Opportunities

This course is an invitation to resist the temptation to intervene. It is a course where we reinvent the concept of leadership from the perspective of contemplation and understanding of systems, asking ourselves, “What is my position in this system?”

We will explore concrete tools and system analysis theories based on the work of Meadows (Thinking in Systems) and Heifetz (Adaptive Leadership). By the end of the course, participants will have developed a strong conviction to avoid interventions without prior diagnosis, and gained a deep understanding of how to collaboratively generate interventions that mobilize the system.

This course is for people who have identified a specific challenge in their system and want to generate change through collective leadership.
