Dan Palmer sources ways of organising in work and life through living design process - Episode 2 of 2 with Dan Palmer

1h 15m · Better World Leaders · 21 Jun 20:33

This is the second part of the very special whole conversation with Dan Palmer. Dan and I designed these two conversations to flow together as one greater dialogue, which is way for the first time I'm sharing two episodes together on Better World Leaders.

If you'd landed here before listening to the other episode because this one is at the top of your feed, I most warmly encourage you to tune into Part 1 on Holistic Decision making first, so as to approach these two episodes as a whole. This element of these shared dialogues builds on the first, exploring Dan's expansive framework of Living Design Process.

I'm continually inspired by Dan's capacity to generate and work within multiple frameworks, and these paired episodes on Holistic Decision Making and Living Design Process embody his work.

I hope you enjoy this conversation, and explore Dan's work more deeply via the links below. Also please consider supporting his family via the link below as you have capacity to do so.

Bill Sharpe shares futures practices for transformations over 3 Horizons...

This conversation is as serious as it is playful, as practical in exploration of practice as it is theoretical in examination of a framework, and as generative a journey for me as a practictioner as it is fascinating as a podcaster! Welcome to the wonderful, rich and informative dialogue with Bill Sharpe, co-creator of the 3 Horizons futures framework.

For anyone interested in leaning into futures thinking and creating experiences of futures work for leaders, groups or whole organisations, this conversation could well be of interest.

Having been aware of 3 Horizons for a few years, read the book several time and been practicing the framework with groups on numerous occasions, this was a wonderful opportunity to be in dialogue with Bill sharing our experiences, practices and practical examples of applying the framework in real living contexts.

We hope you enjoy the discussion, and either deepen or begin your own exploration of this fabulous framework for accessing futures thinking.

Ben Haggard guides how to create frameworks for living systems approaches to life, work and transformation

On the very short list of organisations, entities and gatherings of folk that I've been wholly nurtured, enabled and impacted is Regenesis Institute.

One of the key creators of developmental programs at Regenesis is Ben Haggard, and I've been fortunate to participate in several programs Ben has led and created. Ben is the Director of Educational Programs at the Regenesis Institute of Sustainable Communities, a core element of Regenesis Group.

In this episode we concentrate most explicitly on the functioning of frameworks, their utility for considering and interpreting the world, designing intentional development experiences and crucially to create ways of interacting with and aligning with systems which centre, honour and regenerate life.

I learn so much each and every time I interact with Ben, and co-creating this conversation was a great honour.

You can connect with Ben, and explore more of his work and sign-up for courses at Regenesis via the links below;

Loes Damhof is building capability in the present with Futures Literacy

I was first introduced to Loes, and Futures Literacy, by another BWL guest, Laureline Simon. When Laureline shared in her network that she was co-hosting a course on Futures Literacy for transformative climate action, I was drawn in and joined the cohort to experience this wonderful, exhilarating and enlivening work myself.

Those days immersed in the Futures Literacy framework were the first of what has now become a continuing interaction with Loes Damhof, UNESCO Chair of Futures Literacy at Hanze University in Gronigen in Holland. I've been honoured and delighted to have co-created this conversation with Loes to bring an overview of Futures Literacy to our community here, and invite you to begin your journey into this specific way of building capability in the present to navigate uncertainty and find clarity in ambiguity through explorations and experiences of possible futures.

Loes and I hope you enjoy this conversation, and will accept our invitation to engage this work via the links below and we hope in a co-created learning experience coming early in 2024.

Mel Geltch is hosting and harvesting conversations which matter

I first encountered Mel Geltch after receiving an invitation to join a federally funded leadership program for bushfire impacted communities, following the Australian 'Black Summer' of 2019/20. From the prose in that invitation, I sensed I was encountering a fellow in the work, and as I responded to the expression of interest for that program, I also wrote to Mel and expressed that sense, and that I wondered whether we'd find ourselves weaving together beyond the duration of that program.

That inception moment was the genesis of two threads which have great meaning for me - the beginning of my journey as a practitioner of the Art of Hosting and Harvesting Conversations that Matter, and my unfolding and ever deepening friendship with Mel.

Mel is a steward of 'The Art of Hosting', co-Founder of Campfire Co-op and colleague and collaborator with our previous episodes' guest, Samantha Slade.

This conversation covers several of the integral frameworks found within the patterns, processes and practices of 'The Art of Hosting', as well as some contemporary dialogue on the The First Nations' Voice to Parliament referendum, and the role of such frameworks in holding space for and connecting with ourselves, and our innate capacity to work in life affirming ways.

Mel and I hope you'll enjoy this discussion, and potentially be curious to explore this work more deeply yourself.
