Women and Emerging Futures

The next wave of my own evolution lies in exploring the potential of women to profoundly shape our world. Not only if women can but if women will...do what is required to make the difference. This demands redefining our notions of 'leadership' and reclaiming meaningful expression for women. To progress beyond historical notions of evolution through incremental change, we must redefine what it is to be human - and women are the key.

Completions and Fresh Starts

I blinked - and almost 10 days went by. I wonder how that happens....

I've been spending my 'time' in the future....considering, wondering, pondering, exploring, discovering....getting a 'sense' of what it will take for Intention 2009 to manifest.

Since January 2006, elements have been falling into place; and clarity has emerged about those essential elements. Since then, it has become clear that engaging with women is one of those essential elements; WEL-Systems is another and the compressed timeframe is a third. Three elements. There are many such triads in my life.

When I wrote 'Women's Voices, Women's Choices', it was very clear to me: women gathering in small groups, talking is an essential part of who we are. It is also much more than conversations - it is a force for generative change in our networks of human beings.

The future...MY future...lies in women gathering in small groups, talking....about what is meaninful; telling the truth of their experience; saying 'no' to what they don't want and asking for what they do. No more secrets. No more story-telling to pretend that all is well when we know it is not.

Women gathering in small groups, talking....will change our world. It will also change THE world.

Imagine! Such a simple thing and yet, such a potent process. Like all things truly great, it's simplicity masks its impact. We have yet to notice how women gathering in small groups, talking...and hiding their truth from themselves and each other...has already shaped the world we have.

Intention 2009 will manifest by December 31, 2009. By then, the potential of the paradigm shift that a WEL-Systems perspective invites and allows for, will be in the minds of a collective at critical mass. From there, it is all up to each of us...and the outcome will define the collective we become.

Things are changing. I thought the changes in my life from January 2006 to January 2007 were fast. I wrote in the December Newsletter of what had unfolded. January 2007 to now has pressed the edges of an Emerging Futures perspective, resulting in the need to capture what has presented so that I might move forward. This has led to extensive recorded material for The CODE Model, CODE Model Coaching, Leadership REdefined - REclaimed, Manifestation, and many, many more. These will soon be in production to mark the journey that 2007 made room for. And then, with history ready to tell its own tale, the future continues to emerge.

I wonder what my world will be in December 2008......

Breathing is good......
