8th Annual SDi Training Week
Boulder, Colorado, October 22 - 28, 2007
All good people agree,
And all good people say,
All nice people, like Us, are We
And every one else is They.
~ Rudyard Kipling, "A Friend of the Family"
Welcome to the Age of Reality.
Step this way into our real world of real turbulence, real uncertainty, and real danger.
Where hopes, wishes, dreams, idealism, the passive bliss of being are important, even essential elements for the human spirit – yet simply not sufficient to navigate the stark realities of our day.
Ask yourself how you’re doing these days. How is your family doing? How is your company doing? Your friends, your community? How is your country doing, and how are your leaders doing?
Doing is the operative word.
Dr. Don Beck and The Spiral Dynamics Group warmly invite you to participate in our 8th annual week of dynamic engagement in Boulder.
If you think there is potential large-scale trouble looming ahead, whether in your personal or family life, for your company or career, or politically, ecologically, economically, locally or globally, then this year’s Boulder SDi learning opportunity is for you.
If you’re unsure about what lies ahead and want to learn how to anticipate and prepare for major threats and upsets, then you need to come to Boulder this year.
Our 2007 SDi Personal Emergence focus is on
FULL-SPECTRUM LEADERSHIP: Engaging the Realities in Transformational Change – A Spiral Dynamics Perspective.
Join us to learn about leadership and anticipation. Leadership and resilience. Leadership in our messy, chaotic, unpredictable, overwhelming real world.
Learn how to scan for and detect weak signals of oncoming danger. Learn how to prepare for and respond to chaos. Learn what “wildcards” are, how to expect the unexpected and prepare ahead.
No, this is not merely yet another boring workshop like the usual ones on leadership. No, you will not just sit and watch slides while some long-winded presenter drones on and on.
Yes, you will experience fresh approaches to full-spectrum, 8-level leadership for navigating the whitewater rapids of our era.
Society, science, ecology and commerce are converging
at the intersection of danger and opportunity. A complexity
and unpredictability that is beyond our past experience
characterize the challenges at hand. If humanity's
preferred future is to be realized, new tools for strategic
planning and problem solving must be invented and combined.
We must think differently.
~ John Petersen
Our special “Live Wire” guests this year in Boulder include American author and philosopher Sam Keen (Faces of the Enemy, etc.); author David Berreby (Us and Them: Understanding Your Tribal Mind, etc.); and John Petersen, futurist and founder of The Arlington Institute, and global expert on Risk Awareness Horizon Scanning.
Who we are and what we will become is determined
by the questions that animate us, and by those
we refuse to ask. Your questions are your quest.
As you ask, so shall you be.
~ Sam Keen
It’s time for all of us to think differently and do differently. Time to ask the tough questions. It’s time for a whole new conversation about leadership in times of great turbulence. We look forward to your participation in Boulder!
