DESCRIPTION:\n\nLIVING SYSTEMS PRINCIPLES:\nFrom Theory to Application\nwith Beatrice 
 Benne\n\nThe complexity of our society’s social-ecological challenges 
 (environment, health, education, etc.) calls for a paradigm shift from our 
 “mechanistic” to an “ecological” or living systems worldview, which 
 has emerged from living systems sciences over the last century.  The 
 challenge for change agents working in a field mainly shaped by a 
 mechanistic worldview is two-fold:  first, to develop an understanding of 
 how life and living systems work and, second, to translate that 
 understanding into applications and business strategies that have the 
 potential for addressing multiple problems simultaneously while 
 transforming systemic structures and organizational models.\n\nIn this 
 presentation, Beatrice will introduce key living systems principles and the 
 associated mind shifts required to addressing our society’s challenges 
 from a whole systems perspective.  She will then illustrate how the 
 principles are being applied to the fields of complexity economics, 
 strategic management, organizational change, and regenerative design and 
 development.  She hopes her presentation will generate a lively 
 conversation about the benefits and challenges of working from an 
 ecological and holistic mindset!\n\nHumanist Hall is wheelchair accessible 
 around the corner at  411  28th  Street\n\n$5 donations are 
 expected\n\n\n\n\n \n
