Theory U – a tool for leadership
Theory U: Leading from the future as it emerges – The social technology of presencing.
In this amazing book, Otto Scharmer invites us to see the world in new ways—and to learn from the future as it emerges. Fundamental problems, as Einstein once noted, cannot be solved at the same level of thought that created them.
Theory U explores a whole new territory of scientific research and personal leadership. By moving through the “U” we learn to connect to our originating Self. We travel down the left side of the “U” to find ourselves in the realm of presencing, where we learn to sense the future that is seeking to emerge. At that level of operating, we experience the opening of our minds, our hearts and our wills.
This is an intellectual journey, but also a personal one and yes, you do it both on a personal and collective level. It is one that is grounded in real life experience and shared practices. On this journey of sensing, presencing and realizing, we learn new ways of being—ways crucial for each of us in these changing times. This “U” methodology of leading profound change invites you on an exciting and unique personal and professional journey. You will experience new levels of thought and action from within you that allow you to participate, to co-create and to bring forth the future as it emerges.
PlanB arranges a two day workshop where we explore and get to understand the theory and how we as professionals can practise the theory in daily life and work. So give me a call if you are interested…
