A World Divided
(but still dreaming)
“Look closely at the present you are constructing: it should look like the future you are dreaming.”
~Alice Walker
We are living in trying times, there’s no question about it. Together, we’ve weathered a global pandemic that killed millions of people around the world, and which fundamentally disrupted how we live, work, and are in community with one another. We see social and political strife all around us, from a resurgence of violent conflict in the Middle East, to electoral uncertainties in the United States.
Some days everything just feels BROKEN.
Inequities in our existing systems have come more and more into plain view and we’ve been given a chance to call into question whether the structures and philosophies that fueled industrial growth in the 20th century are well-suited to the much more rapidly evolving, complex, dynamic, and connected times we are living in now.
Today, you can download “A World Divided,” the second segment of the KOAN method: Breakthrough Leadership for a Divided World where I explore why things can feel so hopeless, and what we can do in the face of that feeling.
