@silverhuang while re-reading "The Essentials of #TheoryU" I was curious if there are people around here interested in this #awareness-based method for #SystemsChange. Search result: 2 toots... One is yours. I don't have any fundamented insight. Though I think MIT and even the #presencing Institute - and hence probably their core community - are stuck on BigTech "social" media. Probably the systems change we mean is not theirs?

Correctness offers the illusion of stability, but often blocks our capacity to see what’s truly moving.
Ben's artice this week explored how we re-orient inside complexity — how we recognise flow when surface conditions feel chaotic or still.

Vanessa Machado de Oliveira Andreotti names the shift: from correctness to complexity, context, and compassion.
That’s where real clarity begins.

What if our economy protected what we love instead of harming it?
It’s time for systems that honour life.

A social post from @lifeboatacademy which says: "We've surrendered our values to an economic system that actively harms what we love." — Robin Wall Kimmerer

As we engage this new year, this is a great video (3 minutes long) to watch and ask ourselves, what's changed in the past year. We've known what we know for decades, and these very companies were some of the first to sound the alarm. Now, what are we doing about it?

Our crises and our breakthroughs both begin in imagination. What new doorway are you sensing coming alive?

“Imagination may be the most essential, uniquely human capacity – creating both the dead-end crises of our time and the doorway through them.”

1029 #ClimateSolutions #CircularEconomy #HowTo

Our ‘grab-and-take’ economy HAS to change ! ‘We’ [the rich] can no longer afford to exploit the planet for our greed and luxuries. ‘We’ can no longer shove our problems over to somewhere else. ‘We’ are causing life threatening conditions on people that bear no responsibility for ‘our problems.
It has to be circular. What we make has to going back into the system [of life] not just thrown away, discarded.
Note: important links at the end of this ‘toot’ and in the description of the video.

The solutions to enable a circular economy are arguably already here. So why are we still stuck in our linear one? This video hears from three companies in the Netherlands helping to drive the shift to this new model."

A new review of 102 studies (2011–2021) explores how #SystemsChange is evaluated across health, #sustainability, philanthropy & more. Key takeaway: power & resources are often overlooked. Time to rethink how we measure transformation!

On my journey to discovering how to make a difference, I found myself drawn to frameworks and methodologies like:

- #TheoryU
- #OpenSpaceTechnology #ost
- #LiberatingStructures
- #DevelopmentalModelOfInterculturalSensitivity #dmis

Yet when I search for these on #Mastodon, they don't show up as often as I expected in a self-professed progressive space that clamours for #SystemsChange.

Anyone with similar interests, do you have any insight into why this might be?

After 13 yrs on Twitter, @bikemonterey stopped posting on that platform in Nov 2022.
We are also no longer posting on Meta platforms; we do have a @bikemonterey Instagram account, but it refers people to this Mastodon account.
Although we set up a @bikemonterey BlueSky acct, it likewise refers to this Mastodon acct.

When we did some updates today to Summer Bike Buzz bikemonterey.org/bike-buzz-sum, we pointed out what a chief information officer of a Monterey County transportation agency posted on Mastodon on July 6, 2025:
“Change isn’t easy. And transformational change requires perseverance and dedication. It doesn’t have to be fanatical. Honestly medium-level relentless will do.” mastodon.world/@NoRomBasic/114

We talk of innovation as if it’s always about tech. But some of the boldest innovations today are social, ecological, and moral. Reimagining how we live, consume, and relate to nature—that’s the real frontier. #ClimateJustice #SystemsChange #Regen
