Leadership from the inside out : the capacity to lead and stay alive With Nick Ellem | Monday November 14, 2016.

Derives from a course and set of ideas developed at the Harvard Kennedy school of government by Ron Heifetz and others about the dangers of leading.

We will learn about leadership from the group itself as a case study of analysis and looking to build the following capacities:

- Learn to identify your capabilities, vulnerabilities and triggers
- figure out how others perceive your role in the system
- distinguish self from role
- choose among competing values
- increase tolerance for uncertainty, ambiguity, and conflict
- experiment beyond your comfort zone

‘Theory U: a social technology for helping to bring about profound innovation and change’ with Nick Ellem

Theory U is being applied around the world by individuals, organisations and in multi-sector initiatives generating breakthrough possibilities around pressing organisational and societal issues.

Participants will learn and apply interdependent elements of the U-Process / Presencing:

• Four levels of responding to change
• Four types of listening and conversation
• Three (inner) instruments: Open Heart, Open Mind, Open Will
• Accessing and bringing forth one’s authentic Self
• Overcoming three barriers in one’s inner work
• Five movements of Presencing as a social technology for change: co-initiating, co-sensing, co-inspiring, co-creating, co-evolving
