Hi Community we continue our journey where we're reverse engineering the real value and outcomes for clients if and when they work on their inner development. This time we're looking at the dimension of the THINKING skills. 👉 Here is the Google Doc to add your reflections about the real client outcome for the IDG skills under the 'Thinking' dimension If we can get some first insights before Tuesdays hangout, we can discuss them again next Tuesday, 12.30pm I found this lovely image about the concept of language on LinkedIn, and Sandra kindly gave me permission to share it. I think it expresses so well what we're working on in this Client Value Challenge. *** Other posts in the community: - IDG is growing up - and we're invited to co-create what's next - Reverse-engineering the BEING skills - Building a new kind of economy - International Women's Day event We'd love to have you engage in the conversations here. Have a great weekend Sarah (& Nadene)

Hi everyone I invite you to join me next week for a 30-minute discussion about what's come up so far in our reverse-engineering Client Value Challenge. If you haven't had a chance yet to contribute your thoughts on what the concrete outcomes of the IDGs are for organizations (their pain points), then I invite you to have a look at 👉 this post and add your contribution to 👉 this Google Doc And if you can, join the conversation next Tuesday, 8.30 am CET 🦋 Have a wonderful weekend Sarah (and Nadene) P.S. Here are some other posts in the community that you might find interesting: > Learning Planet Festival Jan 21 - 28, 2026, we're looking for 3 experienced co-facilitators to host 3 sessions > Nature-Inspired Inner Development: @Denise Pang has kindly shared her wonderful resource with us > Participate in COP 30: different events

It was wonderful to connect during this morning's IDG GPN. Thank you @Nadene Canning @Marvin Maneve and @Marie Hernandez for holding the space and thoughtful prompts about how the Guide has evolved and why it matters. Last year I created a journal "23 days of nature-inspired inner development" which reflects on the 23 skills/qualities of IDG 1.0 through the lens of nature. I invite you to continue the journey with the new Inner Development Guide and all the inspiration that nature brings 🦋

What if I told you there are people who are naturally empathetic, creative, curious, long-term thinkers. People with a deep appreciation for nature, who are altruistic, cooperative, and caring? People who want to contribute, not compete. Yet, we don’t see them leading as often as we should. Why? Because many of them see their sensitivity as a burden, rather than a gift. High sensitivity can feel like a double-edged sword. These sensitive people often get lost in self-doubt, insecurity, indecisiveness, and overstimulation. But they posses the qualities we need to drive real, human-centered change in business, society, and our planet. These sensitive individuals are the new generation of change makers. The ones who can connect empathy with action, and purpose with impact. If we can empower them, show them their strength, and give them the space to lead, we can create something truly meaningful. 🌸 Love to hear what you think or if you have any questions on the matter!

Neoliberal capitalism might be nearing its end. A new kind of economy is being built. Its happening in real time. Zohran Mamdani caught the headlines, but something just as radical is quietly bubbling away in Europe. Crazily, its coming from the very places that birthed Colonialism and Empire, the very extractive systems that continue to underpin modern day capitalism. The number of organisations working to build a new, holistic economic system is accelerating in Europe, with almost half of them founded in the last decade (link to the full story in comments, below). As the map below shows, there is a growing West-East divide on where those organisations come from. The UK, Germany, France, Spain and Belgium have the highest number of organisations dedicated to building a new type of economy, spawning new ideas such as housing collectives and community energy projects. That number begins to plummet the further east you go, with ingrained cultural resistance playing its part. Still, we all feel the exploitative roots of neoliberal capitalism. Minorities have long known this more than anyone - from the indigenous Sami people, under threat from the extraction of their ancestral lands because of 'self sufficiency' directives from the European Union, to British Bangladeshis like my own family working low-pay, dangerously frontline gig economy jobs during the Covid pandemic. If you're interested in learning what a new type of economy might look like, come and join my online conversation with Jo Swinson at Partners for a New Economy and Chris Monaghan of Metabolic next week with Alliance magazine, on Thursday 20th November (registration and time details here): https://lnkd.in/eienFCjm Thank you Shafi Mussadique for this!
