Get Below the Surface: Dig Into the Social Soil of Systemic Change
U-Lab Hub: Leading from the Emerging Future
________________________
Facilitated by Adrien P. Gehring Founder, Watershed Insight in partnership with the Presencing Institute (Theory U) and MIT online learning
You are invited to join a small, committed group of Frederick-area leaders to participate in an 8-week U-Lab Hub, moving together through the core modules of the Presencing Institute’s U-Lab: Leading from the Emerging Future program.
This hub is for:
Nonprofit, civic, community, and organizational leaders
Business leaders and entrepreneurs seeking systemic change
People working in education, healthcare, arts, social services, or local initiatives
Leaders navigating complexity, burnout, or transition
Those curious about systems change, regenerative leadership, and inner work that supports outer change
You do not need prior experience with Theory U or U-Lab.
• Organizations are complex ecosystems of people, culture, and mission. At theintersection of personal growth and systemic understanding there is a healthy ecosystem.
• Have a watershed moment and gain insight into your ecosystem. Transform conflict into wisdom, change into growth, and fear into connection.
• Empower leaders and teams to create community where every voice is valued and your mission thrives.
Wherever two or three are gathered… there will be conflict. It can be a pathway towards growth and deeper understanding, or it can be destructive and result in brokenness. Learn tools for your experiences of conflict and grow through the discomfort.
Balance your team’s ability to hope for a new future while they grieve a known past. Change can happen quickly, transition is the longer process of metabolizing the change into the culture of your organization. Learn ways to respond to unexpected or planned change.
Organize people, power, and money with public relationships so that together we may take action to change our world. Organizing builds a community of co-leaders with power and influence to help you achieve your mission. Learn to connect with your surrounding community for the benefit of all.
Harness the wisdom of strong relationships, systemic thinking, and mission-driven change.
We empower the entire ecosystem of your organization from root to branch with an Insight Design approach to systemic problems. Everyone’s organization is unique, therefore we offer you adaptable tools to address problems at the root to implement change in the branches.
