By Lia Aurami for Enlivening Edge Magazine There are significant differences in the kinds of conversations that take place in the Orange, Green, and Teal stages of development of adult consciousness. The stages were popularized by Frederic Laloux’s book Reinventing Organizations, but this article could be valuable to you even if you are not familiar with his framework of categorizing the stages of human consciousness operating in organizations. All three kinds of conversations are valuable, yet you can’t have a Teal conversation until you have learned how to have a Green conversation, and you can’t have a Green conversation until

By Patrizia Bittencourt and originally published on cuidadoria.com. The distinction between leadership and management is fundamental and has often been a topic of discussion in management theories and organizational environments. We at Cuidadoria in Brazil come across a lot of confusion in our work regarding the terms management and leadership. Some claim that they are the same skills, almost like a belief that they refer to the same activity. Others understand the difference without delving into the specifics of each one. It is very common for a person to be placed in a leadership role on the basis of their

Frederic Laloux looks at the work of Coaches, Consultants and Facilitators. Many coaches and consultants have asked me how they could find clients who “get this” and with whom they could work. In this video, I’ll share a few thoughts of how how you could find them… or rather how they could find you. 7 mins 20 secs

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

Some years ago, I read Frederic Laloux’s book Reinventing-Organizations. When I read Teal Trust Transparency, it became an important supplement and gave me several new perspectives. In addition, the book is written based on what is going on right now!

By Claudia Gross and Frank Spencer from Claudia’s emailed Life at Work // Weekly September 21, 2023 and viewable here. The move from VUCA to BANI expresses an evolution: The world is not only volatile, it’s brittle. People aren’t uncertain, they’re anxious. Life is not complex, it’s non-linear. Ambiguous is gone – the experiences are incomprehensible. Stephan Grabmeier has visualized the comparison between VUCA and BANI in a brilliant way. He also wrote about it more extensively – choose your medium: infographic or article. These three visuals show you the developments in a few words: from VUCA to VUCA, from VUCA to BANI and from BANI to BANI. When

The book will be called Collective Power. Patterns for A Self-organized Future. What “Collective Power” is The intention of the book is to show the underlying patterns of collaboration in groups.

By Frederic Laloux and originally published at thejourney.reinventingorganizations.com Frederic Laloux looks at the work of Coaches, Consultants and Facilitators. Do organizations moving to “Teal” still work with consultants? Or do they just need coaches and figure the rest out by themselves? Interestingly, the kind of support I’ve seen various organizations need seems to be quite similar across the board. 12 mins 52 secs Comment guidelines (for original site of publication) My hope is for the comments below the video to surface our collective wisdom on the topic. This could enrich the videos tremendously. Have you experienced something similar in
