Change is Happening
• New Consciousness is Already Emerging*• New ways of seeing, sensing and responding to
dynamic environments– Changing markets, regulatory environments, staff
demands, consumer demands, executive needs• New values, new business models, new language• Case studies reveal solid patterns of change
– New organisational structures– Supported by new business processes– Inspiring new forms of work and livelihood

Is the ‘New Consciousness’ Real?
• Evolutionary emergence is the one constant• The way we are is not how we once were• In the future, modern ways will be seen as primitive

About Developmental Models
• All models can be used as tools or weapons, dependingon the intent of the practitioner– Tools that enable discernment and skilful action.– Weapons used to judge and justify oppression.
• Some models seek to justify violence, some seek toend it by understanding it then choosing to not do it– “to understand everything is to forgive everything”*
• Without a model, without understanding or a vaguesense of how cause and effect flow, we are lost.
• Like choosing words to convey an idea, choose modelsthat serve your efforts to fulfil your purpose.

Ken Wilber’s Integral Model
• Does not claim to be ‘the truth’, or that moreis better, or that things should be a certainway
• A collection of observations on the nature ofour human experience that seem to be truefor everyone who has a look for themselves
• In my life, the most useful of all tools in myquest to know myself and serve my world.

Integral Essentials• You have an inner world and an outer one, and you are both alone and in
relationship with your world… 4 aspects of existence, 4 domains of truth, 4ways to see.
• Everything evolves – matter (from hot gas to bio-ready planets), life (from plants tocomplex animals), mind (from toddler to sage), relationships (from needy to loving),societies (tribal to technological).
• You have at least 3 major sates you transition between – waking, dreamingand deep sleep. Other states include happy, sad, day dreaming, busy,withdrawn, supportive, etc.
• You can be skilled (or not) in dozens of different ways: affect regulation, cognition,language, music, spiritual, kinaesthetic, values, aesthetic (art and beauty), etc.
• You have preferences that orient you to choose as you do – e.g. right now, youchoose what you perceive based on what you value from your experience
• Integral theory does not argue better or worse, right or wrong, and anintegral lens on life does suggest that freedom and love are morepleasurable than bondage and fear. I agree. I choose that.

Notice…
• With each new worldview, the way everythingis done differently
• Each new emergence involves rethinking everyaspect of our ‘way of doing things’…– beliefs about why and what we are doing– purpose, language, metaphors, myths– organisational model, task and process structures– goals and success measurement

Subtle Violence
• Non-consensual denial of the freedom to decide foryourself what you will think, believe or do next.
• Widespread, ingrained use of subtle violence inworkplaces, schools, families, intimate relationships,family court, on TV, in games, movies, marketing,social services, etc.
• So common as to be hard to see.
the sickness of our culture is the epidemic of subtle violence

Subtle Violence Epidemic• Forcefulness and manipulation are the accepted subtle
weapons in the war of competing human fears…– Forcefulness –imposing a view of ‘the truth’, demanding
certain patterns of behaviour, bullying, domineering -threat of punishment.
– Manipulation – coercion, half-truths, non-disclosure,rumours, negativity, refusal to agree clearly to anything –threat of withdrawal.
• Where a context includes a spoken or unspoken threat(of punishment or withdrawal) for non-compliance to arule you did not agree to, language becomes aninstrument of subtle violence.
• NVC is the tonic the world needs to treat the subtleviolence that is currently engulfing us.

Decision Making• Hierarchical vs. Consensus vs. Both• Transcend and Include: Advice Process
– seek advice from people with expertise– seek advice from those impacted by decision

Wholeness Coming Home
• personal transformation required– know that when you are navigating without fear,
your success is assured – there is always enough.– receive graciously all events and changes as
invitations to learn – nothing is by accident.– welcome the influence of others in the co-creation
of your shared future.– be unafraid to explore, to experiment and to fail.– know that you know for sure only one thing.

Teal Shadow
• Healthy ego over-inflates to narcissism– insistent about ‘how it should be’– devalues views of others– complex defences against critique and regret
• …can lead to the Master Manipulator– uses ‘skilful means’ in service of self– can justify or reframe almost any ethical challenge– uses drama to destabilise then influence systems

Transformational Hooks
• Remember to keep communicating…– evidence of an emerging worldview is the
presence of conversations about it.– evidence it is stabilising is the harvesting of the
descriptions of new task and interpersonalprocesses to support old functions.
– if an evolutionary approach is agreed upon, keepthe conversations flowing towards clarity on howto embody wholeness and sovereignty in theprocesses you use to fulfil your purpose.

Transformational Hooks
• Remember to listen with the ears of the heart– sensitive to the context of shared purpose.– hears and embraces both reason and feeling,
structure and free flow of the creative.– accepting and yet discerning, open yet alert– natural integrative intelligence that is the seat of
creativity.

Transformational Hooks
• Remember that context creates meaning– watch for meaning displacement across contexts– open to new and more constructive meaning in
the present context
• Welcome the Return to the Seed of Purpose– tool to bring fear or vested interest into view– be willing to name bullying or manipulation when
they occur in ways that lead back to purpose
