Have you heard about collaboratio helvetica’s Catalyst Lab? What does it mean to be a Catalyst? Are you wondering how we combine inner and outer work to generate long-lasting, positive change?

Join us on June 6, 2024, as we come together to discuss how we crafted the learning journey of the Catalyst Lab and why the inner and outer work duality is at the centre of systems change.

The most underestimated factor in conflict transformation is the central role of our nervous system. Conflict is never "out there" - it always starts "in here": as an inner experience of emotional overload, of "too much".

Systemic change is needed to implement the 2030 Agenda and achieve the SDGs in Switzerland, and it can only happen with participatory approaches and partnerships across sectors.

Prototyping as a method of problem solving requires a set of skills and attitudes that are very different to those demanded by traditional planning paradigms. These skills and attitudes require us, as individuals, teams and institutions, to both unlearn old patterns and learn new ways of engaging with the world.

Ecosystem Activation is a concept that has emerged over the last four years of collaboratio helvetica’s work, and that we recognise not only as crucial for systems change work, but also as one of the biggest stumbling blocks for anyone on this journey. We define Ecosystem Activation as the work needed to rally an ecosystem around a common cause, need or potential. It encompasses all outer actions we take to make transformation possible by ensuring the (outer) pre-conditions for systems change work are met (incl. funding, resources, people, access to power).

This 1-day training is an introduction to the key principles, contents and aspects of a Social Innovation Lab process (inspired by Zaid Hassan and further evolved with Theory U).

The societal challenges that we are facing today are complex and can feel overwhelming at times. Each situation is interrelated with many other aspects and unique, therefore requires us to approach it with a sense of care, presence and courage.

During the two hours, we will be introducing Radical Collaboration®, an experiential learning method for developing individual skills that reduces defensive behavior and builds trust-based relationships. Radical Collaboration® teaches how to skillfully navigate conflicts and turn adversarial situations into situations of trust and collaboration. It builds on five essential collaborative skills: We discover how collaboration begins with the inner work of individuals.

Times of uncertainty, fast changes, and multiple and interrelated challenges require a high level of adaptability, meaningful responses, and congruence as individuals and teams. How do we learn and make sense of what just happened - being it an official success or failure? How do we capture valuable new thoughts or ideas? How do we integrate our learning and upgrade our parcours of action so that we adequately respond to complex dynamics?

The societal challenges that we are facing today are very complex and can feel overwhelming. In this context, the question is: How can we make sense of the complex interrelations in a system? How can we have a look at the bigger picture and gain a deeper understanding of the challenges? Where do we even start when wanting to contribute to a systemic change, how do we find relevant leverage points? In this workshop, you will get an introduction to two frameworks that will help you make sense of the system you are working with: system mapping and the iceberg model.

Tackling issues of systemic relevance and working towards societal change is a big undertaking. There are many interrelated dynamics and aspects to track and be mindful of. What we experience in the macro is often also present in the microcosmos, being it in our project, team, or ourselves.

Have you heard about Theory U, but you don’t really have a clue what it is all about? Are you curious and want to learn more about the framework and its tools as well as hear from practical examples of application? Do you want to contribute to an awareness-based systemic change in your own area, and are looking for new inspiration and tools that can help you do so? Then join us in this Theory U introduction course!
