Peter Ahlm has a controller background, but works for the central unit of the University in Lund with project management of business development projects. Some time ago he attended the Process Consultant Program provided by PlanB and as a result he can now look at his work in terms of ”before the program” and ”after the program”.
Can you describe the main usefulness of the Process Consultant Program?
- Yes, well before we probably worked in a very ”business economics minded” way with our development processes. We were very rational in our way of thinking. We made a plan and followed it, to put it simple, says Peter and continues:
- We have gained knowledge and feeling for how we can look …

The Arab Spring is an amazing example of emergence in the process of change. This speech given by Riyaad Minty, Manager of Al Jazeera Network’s social media initiatives, shows how people using social media to connect and communicate develop the needed critical mass to successfully overthrow the government of Egypt.
Complexity theory and studies of complex adaptive systems tells us that the amount of connections between the agents or the parts is a critical factor enabling emergent change. In this speech Riyaad Minty tells us how Twitter together with Al Jazeera enabled (or facilitated) the Arab Spring.
For further reading I highly recommend Margreth Wheatly’s article on emergence and social innovations.
