Mapping the Mystery: Philosophies of Change
A monthly conversation series about integrative mental models that orient us to the unknown.
Upcoming Dates: April 12 and May 17. Time: 11-1 pm PST, 2-4 pm EST, 8-10 pm CET
Throughout time people have used theoretical frameworks to navigate uncertainty and make sense of the mystery, like David did above regarding visual practice.
In this new series David Sibbet, founder of Grove Consultants International and co-founder of The GLEN, will talk to inspiring colleagues about mental models they rely on to orient to the unknown. These interactive sessions will be graphically facilitated. In addition to leaving the session with better understanding for their own journey, participants will also receive a map of the model that was discussed.
Upcoming conversations include Heiko Veit on the STAGES International developmental model; Joran Oppelt on Integral Theory; Gisela Wendling on her Liminal Pathways Model; and Firehawk Hulin on the Medicine Wheel. Scroll down to register for our upcoming conversations.
