Liberating Living Systems
Join us for the launch of the connection celebration and a special thought-provoking session that underpins the CCA way of working and shows how we can connect consciously in navigating the path ahead.
We are living systems and therefore already know much about how living systems behave and interact. However, in modern western cultures we are also imprinted with a number of beliefs about the nature of the universe and how it operates that are more reflective of mechanistic science of 300 years ago. By contrasting the two paradigms using organisational life as an example, we will:
• expand our own awareness
• become more sensitive to the very different characteristics of these two worldviews
• open ourselves to different pathways for change as we attempt to address complex challenges such as climate and ecological crisis.
Josie’s fundamental idea is that it is the unconscious mechanistic assumptions embedded within western organisational cultures, that need to be identified, challenged, and cleared out of the way to liberate the natural ways of being and doing that are already present in every human. This process can transform an organisation and maybe a society. This webinar will also include an opportunity for Q&A.
