Leaders
Exploring the Ecology of
Leadership: Values for a Complex World
This workshop gives leaders lenses to see their
leadership in terms of its evolutionary, developmental,
self-organizing nature. Leaders assess their leadership
within this Spiral Dynamic integral framework and
prepare to experience its application in interactive
scenarios. They explore levels of complexity;
bio-psycho-cultural-social expression; express self /
sacrifice self stages; and acceptance / rejection of
values. They gain an understanding of the ecology of
leadership within complex life conditions and obtain
resources for integral leadership development.
From Eco-Activist to Evo-Artist: Creating
the Conditions for Change the World Needs Done
This one day workshop will engage participants to move
beyond eco-activism into evolutionary-artistry. They will learn
natural design principles that will enable them to get
out from under the canopy of their own assumptions; move
beyond the safe embrace of communities of practice; and
discover the true diversity that lies beneath the
surface of human emergence. Participants will gain
access lenses of the developmental, evolutionary,
complex adaptive system called Spiral Dynamics integral.
They will learn key secrets behind the ongoing
metamorphosis of global activists like Greenpeace,
Forest Ethics and Integral Ecology and Sustainability.
More than "being the change they want to see in the
world," this workshop will challenge participants "to
DO the change the world needs
done," and give them tools for doing it.
Optionally Co-Facilitated with Dr. Don Beck Founder
of the Center for Human Emergence and co-author of
Spiral Dynamics: Mastering Values, Leadership and Change
Leadership That's Always One Step Ahead
How do you lead in a workplace that is always changing?
Is your leadership approach appropriate to the values
and worldviews of the people you are called to lead?
How do leaders develop strategies that keep them one
step ahead of change? This course will
engage leaders with values and change to help them stay
one step ahead of those they are leading. This workshop
will use online self-assessment, classroom lecture and
feedback, small group work, experiential exercises
and/or case studies.
This two day session creates learning conditions
where leaders are granted artistic license to experience
the never-ending quest in their leadership story.
Leaders are guided to gain deep insights, through
artistic expressions of their evolutionary,
developmental, self-organizing journey. Leaders interpret their leadership values, using multiple
art-forms to tell their story and understand it within a
Spiral Dynamic integral framework in order to open
gateways for discovering the future art of their
leadership practice.

Women
Quantum Woman: How Are We Awakening to the Integral Age?
This is an inquiry, for women only, about the evolution of women; how women contribute to our species’ survival, adaptation and emergence; and what is natural, needed and next for women at this time in evolution.
The objective of this inquiry is to reframe our understanding of integral and spiral human system dynamics from the paradigm of the double helix to the paradigm of the triple helix. The triple helix recognizes that women and men have separate but intertwining evolutionary journeys with their life conditions. (The double helix of Clare Graves does not differentiate the uniquely embodied realities of women and men.) Quantum Woman makes visible, the woman who has been conflated with the man in the double helix view of the human evolutionary journey. We explore woman as an adaptive, relational, inspirational co-evolutionary partner who has enabled the journey of human emergence through survival hearths and family clans, even up to and including patriarchal hierarchies, bureaucracies, competitive enterprises and social networks. Beyond the emergence of the humanistic acceptance of diversity and equality, Quantum Woman asks, what is woman’s role in re-leasing, re-forming and re-membering the human system through the intelligences of flex-flow into new ways of living, learning and leading? This inquiry integrally supports women to explore who they are called to be in the Quantum Leap era of human evolution.

4 Questions That Can Release Potential for Well
Being
Discover how the answers to four simple questions can
tell us the natural place to apply resources and energy
to further the well-being of a leader, team,
organization, community or city. Humans naturally create
complex living systems. Our integral approach provides
clear insight into how resources, efforts and
collaboration can be best invested to release the
potential for well being.
Dialogue, Deliberation and Design:
Connecting All the Dots
Spiral
Dynamics integral
(SDi) reveals how to focus and mesh authority, power and
influence for appropriate collaboration and governance
at all levels of human systems. This SDi workshop
introduces the insights for designing elegant, natural,
systemic problem-solutions that meet people and address
situations where they are.
Optional Co-Presenter: Dr. Don Beck

Emerging Organization:
Exploring Complex Adaptive Teams and Organizations
Participants consider the paradigms of leadership
and organization that emerge from their experience,
values, worldviews and environment. They examine the contexts of their organizations in
the workplace where leadership and learning occur and
learn:
-
how organizations co-emerge with
the people who lead and work in them
-
the relationship between 21st C
Leaders and 21st C Organizations
-
How different forms of
organization co-exist, interconnect and serve
stakeholders
Organization Wellness
This
session explores the patterns, processes and structures
of organizations in relation to their identity,
relationships and information sharing. Organization
wellness is explored through stages of development,
sectoral maturity, priorities and the integral spiral lenses
of developmental, evolutionary perspectives.
Participants gain discernment between natural system
growth, transitions, transformations and dis-ease.
Deep Listening
Participants
ground and centre themselves for organizing the way
in which they give and receive feedback from self and
others. They explore the power of
guided reflection through the lenses of perception,
thinking, feeling and wanting. This builds a foundation
for mutual trust and respect, team performance and
communication.
Spiral Dynamics integral Praxis:
Applying Assessment Tools to Self,
Others & Organizations
This
workshop gives participants practice in using and
applying Spiral Dynamics integral assessment tools.
They review and interpret the results of the Values,
Change State and CultureSCAN assessments. They
have an opportunity to apply the tools to individuals,
teams and one or more organizations, using a case
study. They experience the advantages of working as
community of practise.
Communities, Cities
4 Questions That Can Release
the Potential in Your Community
A city or community is a complex living system.
This workshop introduces a simple, low cost, low technology
approach to provide clear insight into how resources,
taxes and grants can be best invested to release the
potential of the city. Participants learn the Spiral
Dynamics integral (SDi) framework that gives the power
to this approach. SDi shows how people and communities naturally develop and how
development gets blocked and how it can be unblocked.
SDI integrates the spectrum of cultures within communities,
within a city and reveals how they can naturally move forward.
The answers to four questions tell us the natural place
to apply resources and energy to further the city’s
development.
Regional Placemaking Through Meshworking
Cities and Regions are
too often fractured by solitudes, silos and stovepipes
(Dale, 2001). In order to emerge a view and practise of
regional place that is whole and integral, meshworking
integrates hierarchies and self-organizing webs of
relationships, uniting data and people for effective
action and outcomes. Meshworking as a practise can
originate from the bottom of a system or the top of a
system, creating complex structures that flex and flow,
able to self-organize, while at the same time direct
behaviour in dependable, learned ways. Meshworks,
operate like our brains and appear to offer a powerful
explanation of how communities, cities and regions
function, evolve and place-make. Meshworkers act like
catalysts in the system, using imagination, courage and
powers of attraction to articulate intelligent designs
from the meshing of the diversities in people and
places. This session will describe the work of key
meshworkers and their practises.
Communicating Planning by Design: A New Way of
Lensing, Languaging and Aligning Differences in a
Neighbourhood
Communication is the primary work
medium of all planning. Yet few planners have learned
how to uncover what’s beneath the cacophony of voices
and emotions in the neighbourhood, how to translate
between voices, or how to communicate for coherence. In
this workshop, you will learn how to communicate with
people who have different understandings of what counts.
Using an Appreciative Inquiry
framework, the presenters will mesh the various
interests in the room with discoveries from their work.
They will share the results of their learning lab in the
Spence Neighbourhood in 2007, and demonstrate how they
used eight communication lenses – derived from Spiral
Dynamics integral (SDi) – to design a communications
strategy. You will learn how to recognize the different
lenses, or thought patterns, of people in any
neighbourhood. You will see how you can engage with
various groups, even when they appear unfriendly. You
will discover the secrets of “outing” the voices that
need to be heard. Through practice, you will experience
the potency of languaging your communication for
different sets of ears and different contexts, so it can
be heard and acted upon. You will learn how to align or
‘meshwork’ the messages, to reflect the community as a
whole.

Sustaining Cities: Rethinking and
Reframing Healthy Change
In today's environment, change in cities can mean anything from rearranging the benches on the street; to implementing responses to systemic inequities like homelessness or drug abuse; agreeing on an official community plan; or responding to the chaos caused by toxic spills, natural disasters and cultural clashes. Regardless of the scale of change, cities need a framework large enough to hold an adaptive, responsive spectrum of analysis. This session will present you with an integral, practical model framework for sustaining healthy change in cities.
Helping Cities Do More With Less
Learn how Integral City Systems (ICS) is a value managed
approach to urban management and development. Explore a
decision making framework for both the built environment
and quality of life. Examine human values systems and
engineering techniques that optimize available resources
for strategic outcomes. Learn a common language for
stakeholder participation, professional expertise and
dynamic urban change.

Flower Power In Your Global
Village
How has your community become a global village? What do
we know about the rich diversity of our communities that
thrive below the surface of our observations and
assumptions, like a flower bulb beneath the soil? A
unique map, lets you appreciate how communities are
emerging into global villages with qualities as vibrant
as multi-coloured spring flowers. Explore what makes
the quality of your work, personal actions, family life
and spiritual development thrive or wither. Gain new
insights into how your personal, professional and
organizational values add “flower power” to the
development of your community as a global village.
Bio-Security Challenges in the
Global Village
The design for a secure Bio-Security for diseases in the
Urban Environment needs to recognize the impact of the
"Human Factor". There are many jurisdictions involved in
highly complex bio-threat situation. This brings into
play the plurality of human systems and potential
disconnections and breaches of any security system
design. Solutions are found through urban planning, city
leadership, & education.

Values-Based ROI, Integral Scorecards, and Vital
Signs Monitors
Accountants have a new future! Cross-disciplinary
research shows how accountants can move beyond even
Balanced Needs Scorecards, to develop
Values-Based ROI and Vital Signs Monitors. This
workshop will explore the patterns from hard and soft
sciences that make possible multi-dimensional vital
signs monitors to track the health of human systems in
teams, organizations and cultures. The presentation
will share research, pilot projects and publications,
demonstrating how designing integral vital signs
monitors offers whole new perspectives for accountants,
who can describe benchmarks for what we want to change,
how to track the change and how we develop processes to
influence change.
Integral Research
Methodology
Integral Methods from the Margins: Finding Myself in
the Research - A Retrospective of Integral Leadership
Development Methods Using Online Dialogue Analysis, a
Competency Development Framework and Action Research
This retrospective explores three
integral methodologies from the presenter’s decade of
self/other discovery as researcher, professor, writer
and leadership learning process designer. Dr. Hamilton
shares the Ethnographic Codebook developed for her
dissertation, studying learning and leadership in the
self-organizing online Berkana Community of
Conversations. She outlines the integral competency
framework, she co-designed for the Masters Leadership
degree at Royal Roads University, to provide leadership
development feedback by self/peer/instructor. Lastly
Hamilton shares her experience in coaching 50 Action
Research theses and how the integral competency
framework, integral methodological pluralism and
participatory action research can enable students
gaining two developmental levels in two years. The
presentation concludes with comparisons to newer
leadership technologies and recommendations for further
development.
