Geoff Mulgan comes to Canada

 

Late April and into May, SiG was excited to host Geoff Mulgan, Chief Executive of Nesta and Chair of the Social Innovation Exchange in Canada for several events. We have been busy collecting all of the wonderful assets from his visit, and have made them available here.

While you're visiting, take a look at the speakers we have confirmed for the 2012 Inspiring Action for Social Impact Series.

 

SiG goes to ALIA

What does it mean to create change in a space of complexity? We may know the theory, we may have the tools, but then there is the actual experience. How do we navigate when the ground itself is shifting, when we are feeling our way through uncertain territory? How does the journey of personal leadership and growth unfold? What are the skills and practices that lead to mastery? The ALIA Institute lives in these questions.

ALIA (Authentic Leadership in Action) has been bringing together the "outer and inner" dimensions of authentic leadership and social innovation for the past 11 years. To do this, they have been drawing on a broad network of collaborators, including Margaret Wheatley, Adam Kahane, Peter Senge, Peter Block, Otto Scharmer, and other pioneers in the field.

This June, for the first time, ALIA is welcoming SiG to its annual Summer Institute. SiG partners Tim Brodhead, Tim Draimin, Al Etmanski, Cheryl Rose, and Frances Westley, all pioneers in their own right, will bring a wealth of knowledge and perspectives to the week-long learning community.

ALIA provides a container for deep personal and collective learning, and for sparky exchange. Contemplative practices call forth the “warrior heart of leadership,” and skill-building tracks translate theory and practice into concrete action steps.
