" The environment is breaking down and the climate is changing rapidly. The Week is a group experience to help us see what’s coming and what we can do about it. " In 2014, Dick West organized a book study on Reinventing Organizations that a number of us participated in.  The author, Frederic Laloux, was focused on how to create really "participatory" organizations that operated from a high level of consciousness. Now (see below) he and his wife have created an approach to release people's energy to take on the changes and challenges we're facing over the next several decades, especially related to climate.  Here is a link to the program   The Week | Home | | | | | | | | | | | The Week | Home The environment is breaking down and the climate is changing rapidly. The Week is a group experience to help us ... | | | The fuller announcement is copied below.    The idea is 1.  to get a group together, in an organization, a family, a church, a neighborhood to go on a journey of looking ahead, seeing the challenges, letting them sink in and coming to some realistic sense of vocation in relation to this time in history.2.  Spend 3 90 minute sessions together over the course of a single week (video presentation and conversation)3.  move on from there . . . I am looking for a couple of people to try this out together and see how it works.  The cost is minimal to organizations and no charge for friends, family, neighborhood, church Jim Wiegel   Theunknown is what is.  And to be frightened of it is what sends everybodyscurrying around chasing dreams, illusions, wars, peace, love, hate, allthat.  Unknown is what is.  Accept that it's unknown, and it's plainsailing.    John Lennon 401 North Beverly Way, Tolleson, Arizona 85353 623-363-3277 jfwiegel@yahoo.com www.partnersinparticipation.com ----- Forwarded Message ----- From: Frederic Laloux (Reinventing Organizations) <frederic@reinventingorganizations.com>To: "jfwiegel@yahoo.com" <jfwiegel@yahoo.com>Sent: Tuesday, February 28, 2023 at 07:50:40 PM MSTSubject: My new project after Reinventing Organizations For the last 3 years, I've been working on a new project with my wife, Helene. This is the big announcement: 'The Week' is live! | | | | | View this email in your browser | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Dear James My last newsletter was… years ago! That’s because for the last 3 years, I’ve been working with my wife Helene and a growing team  on a new project, this time related to the climate emergency. It’s called The Week and after 3 years of work... it’s now live! I thought that you’d like to know. I’m as proud of this project as I am of Reinventing Organizations! So what is The Week? It's more than a book: it’s a group experience and it’s really powerful. Here is a short video I just shot to tell you all about it!  | | | | | | | | | | Want to see the first five minutes of episode 1? It’s here!  Want to know more about using The Week in your workplace or with corporate clients? It’s here!   The Week is available in English and French - and there are German and Dutch subtitles to the English version (thank you Liv & Linda & Laurence!) www.theweek.ooo   I’m so excited to be able to share this with you all. I hope you’ll like it and find it as meaningful as Reinventing Organizations!   Frederic PS: We are hiring ! Do you know a fabulous person in the United States who could spread The Week in the corporate world or spread it in faith communities?    | | | | | | | | | | | | Copyright © 2023 Reinventing Organizations, All rights reserved.
