These two blog posts appeared in my mailbox this morning as well as a post from id@w. As I read them, I felt compelled to share. I felt myself grounding and breathing in the richness of the scents that come with the flowers and the air around me and so I added one of my favourite flowers.

So inspired by this perspective - The Art of the Inter-Stander 1. When an era ends 2. The engineering credit is gone 3. Why regeneration keeps failing 4. Life doesn’t need leaders 5. From leading to standing Thank you @Elif Kus Saillard for making sense of our collective reality and looking to the future. What capacities support you to be an “Inter-Stander” in your work?

You've probably seen it already, it's all over Social Media. But we thought it might be interesting to unpack the Canadian PM's speech from an IDG Skills perspective. What are some of the skills you've explicitly heard him reference, and which ones are more subtle, but not less important?

I was in Caux for the first time in 2016 with @Mark Vandeneijdne and @Veronique Sikora Gasser I was there with a cohort of curious people who all wanted to know more about inner development and support people on their own pathes. Mark had developed an assessment, with his then partner Sujith. The assessment, Being at Full Potential was different, it was a fabulous conversation starter to help people understand more clearly the parts of themselves that were not yet fully expressed. Vanessa Smith was the graphic facilitator in the room scribing. She is known for her work at Crafting Connection. This is her illustration and her question. This question is always power packed! Be it in the New Year, when we feel stuck, or when we’re questioning next steps. How does it resoNate with you?

@Nadene Canning and myself both have our birthdays in January, we're both Capricorns. It would be fun to know some of our birthdays, and if you know it, your Zodiac sign. The poll didn't let me add 12 options, so I had to group 2 months together. If you like, add your exact birthdate and zodiac sign in the comments ;-)
