Leading from the Roots

  • What You Will Learn
  • Synopsis
  1. Underlying design principles found in mature ecological systems in nature and how they can be applied to your organization.
  2. Dynamics found in living systems and how to shift your leadership to lead from a living system perspective.
  3. What nature’s design principles and living system dynamics can teach us about what we need to focus on and let go of in our leadership practices.

Leading from the Roots uses Nature as inspiration to help us see a new way of leading and designing organizations. It applies the generous framework found in mature ecologies to human organizations. It helps us shift our assumptions, practices, structures, and processes to become more resilient and nourishing for all. Leading from the Roots seeks to grow organizational cultures where individuals, the organization, and the larger community all thrive. We can consciously design, grow, and lead our organizations so they are more like the generous systems found in nature. And along the way, we will be able to design our way out of workplace dysfunction and drama because dysfunction and drama is a function of how we lead and the kind of organizational cultures we create.

Coming Soon!

Dr. Kathy Allen’s new eBook is filled with more living systems lessons.
