How are you in relationship with time?

Too often in our system work we perceive time only as the here and now, and yet there are vast dimensions of time that are useful to define and apply in our systems work. Broadening our scope on time can help us to:

  • better understand how the system arrived to what it is today,
  • allow for different patterns and trends to emerge,
  • and engage with the system and others in the system differently.

Join facilitators Seanna, Founder and Director at The Systems School, and Anna, CEO at the School of System Change, for this opportunity to reflect, listen and engage with the multiple dimensions of time.

Participants are invited to identify a system of interest or piece of work they are engaged in, to reflect on how they consider time. The session will be a mix of small group discussion, self-reflection and short offerings on ways to conceive of time.

This two-hour session is offered in collaboration between The Systems School and School of System Change as part of the Seedling Series: short courses supporting changemakers to embrace complexity through discovering the diversity of systemic approaches and practitioners.
