By Konrad Olesiewicz for Enlivening Edge Magazine For some it might be very challenging to fully embrace next–stage values and practices and embody them. It often requires a dramatic perspective shift beyond purely cognitive understanding.

The basic premise of IFS® is that our personality is composed of parts that are like subpersonalities with their own qualities and perspectives. Another one …

By Dirk Jan Versluis for Enlivening Edge Magazine The subtitle of Frederic Laloux’s popular book Reinventing Organizations includes the phrase ‘next stage of human consciousness.’ A next stage of consciousness inevitably introduces new paradigms of thought. In this article I will shed some light on a new paradigm that integrates two apparently different concepts from different fields: Leadership and Trauma. Unresolved traces of trauma and the resulting destructive patterns often have a simple effect: they stand in the way of expansion and self-actualization. Being aware of our own trauma-created wounds, blocks and shadow-parts is inevitably part of our ‘striving for …

By Mark Eddleston and originally published on New Ways of Working substack Feedback is for sure one of the key patterns found in progressive organisations. It’s one of the tools that teams need most – a shortcut to improvement and better collaboration. Done well, feedback will help your colleagues, your team and your organisation. And receiving feedback about the impact you’re having on other people is a huge (often untapped) source of personal growth. We are all better off if we understand our impact on others. For these reasons and more, feedback features in my New Ways of Working playbook and online course. …

By Charlie Efford and originally published on Linkedin As I started to tune into the idea of conscious leadership (and the plethora of related ideas), my first thought was – how do I define what a conscious leader is? Once I had a definition, I could create a model and teach people how to become one. Logical, rational and completely aligned with a reductionist view of the world. (The idea that we can explain everything by understanding its component parts). Conscious leadership needs time to emerge I set off on my quest and read lots of articles that confidently stated …

By Travis Marsh and originally published on Lead Together Parting ways with an organization is never easy. When it comes to exiting colleagues, leaders usually walk three common paths. The first one is acting fast. If someone consistently fails to meet expectations or live by the company’s values, most managers would ask that person to leave. Others prefer to act slower and give individuals time to improve their performance and behavior on their own, which may be impossible if they don’t know what to improve. The third path is trying to fix the person by staging an intervention. If someone …

This introduction is from the January 2023 newsletter of the Teal Team and the article is published by Larissa Conte of Wayfinding, Inc. Introduction by the Teal Team: The concept of power lies at the heart of Teal: discovering the power of purpose, seizing your personal power, and learning to share power humbly with others. But we’re not good at talking about power, not comfortable with openly acknowledging it. Naming and acknowledging 30 different types of power at work helps us understand that our individual combination of powers are unique, power is manifest and exercised in multiple ways, and that …
