You know that messy mix of thoughts and emotions that can occur when you have to deal with a difficult situation or conflict? You replay everything in your head, discuss it with others, chew it up, put it aside, pick it up again.... the knot just won't come loose. There are so many different aspects, voices and perspectives that you encounter: in short, your own plurality. 

Join us on Zoom for a free workshop on Dealing with difficult situations and conflict: a tool to explore your inner dialogue. Over 90 minutes we will:

• Introduce and experience a hands-on method to explore a difficult situation or conflict you are currently facing

• Connect with others in small groups and learn from one another’s experiences

• Share further methods and tips for approaching conflicts and challenges with more awareness

How does the mind really work?

We are often led to think about the mind as a computer - with RAM, hard drive, etc. However, diving into the neuroscience, this is not necessarily accurate nor a useful model, and very much rooted in a mechanical understanding of life's systems.

There's another way to think about it, which particularly incorporates how our mind experiences consciousness - and this model is called "The Wheel of Awareness" - see the diagram in the picture.

It has been developed by Dr. Dan Siegel, one of the world's most eminent neuropsychiatrists and has helped thousands of people around the world enhance their focus, presence and peace - for a more resilient, vital life.

Next week on Thursday (Sept 14), we will be hosting an IDG Gathering with Dan Siegel himself, who will give a practical introduction.

“All grown-ups were once children... but only a few of them remember it” (The Little Prince, Antoine de Saint-Exupéry). As part of our society, we have become accustomed to going along with things, becoming what our boss wants, our partner wants, and our friend wants. But is it also what we want, who we truly are? Being permanently disconnected from ourselves makes it impossible for us to connect with others authentically and deeply. We might pretend that we listen to the other person, that we understand them, and that we care about what happens to them. Deep down, however, we often do not.

In this Community Call, we will explore some tools to reconnect with your true self through play. We will be using the joy of discovering things for the first time as you did as a child: the first time you saw a star, the first time you tasted a lemon, the first time you touched the snow. Together, we will explore those first times and try to stay in them as long as possible. From there, we will explore how to (re)connect more authentically and deeply with others. Providing a welcoming space similar to a kindergarten for grown-ups, we invite you to join, be vulnerable, and explore the potential of playful authenticity, and how to connect these insights to our current areas of work.

What do bring: Participants are kindly invited to bring an object, a memory, a song, a picture, or whatever they like that puts them in a good mood.

Facilitators:
The call will be hosted by Matthias Ryffel, responsible for Design and Facilitaion at collaboratio helvetica, together with Catalyst and founder of Cultural Inquiry, Jose Antonio Gordillo Martorell. Jose refers to himself as an everlasting child, and his work is a constant invitation to feel the joy of playfulness, curiosity, and discovery. He thinks, creates, works, feels, and lives by playing and getting others to play. He loves to "get off his feet" to dive into the depths and explore. He loves Aikido and salsa dancing. What he does best is prepare delicious Spanish potato omelettes to eat with his friends on a Saturday afternoon. He loves and celebrates life every single day.

Who can join the call?
Everyone interested in learning more about the topic and getting to know collaboratio helvetica is warmly welcome to join the call, so don’t hesitate to invite your friends and whomever you feel would benefit from this call.

When: 05 February 2024, 19:00–20.30 CEST

Fee: Free of charge

Language: English

Where: The call will take place online on Zoom. Please register in advance to receive the link, as it will be sent to you by e-mail one day before the call.

How do you currently make decisions in your team? What’s working well and where do you face challenges?

Decision-making is a key leverage point to share responsibility and unlock the capacity for creativity and innovation in a team. Yet it can also be the source of inefficiencies, bottle-necks, conflicts and unhealthy power dynamics. 

Join us on Zoom for a free workshop on ‘Team Decision-Making’ on Wednesday, 9 June 2021 from 10:00 to 11:30.

Over 90 minutes we will: 

• Share methods and processes for empowering decision-making in teams

• Introduce the concept of decentralised decision-making and reflect on opportunities and challenges 

• Reflect on your own team and explore what supports and what gets in the way of good decision-making

• Share experiences, tips and learnings  

Whether you are a team leader, team member, or simply curious to learn about methods for group decision-making, we invite you to join us for an interactive workshop. We would love to learn from your experiences as well!

Hallo ihr Lieben! Gerne teile ich hier den Call for Papers für das englischsprachige Symposium, das ich seit letztem Jahr organisiere, moderiere und durchführe. Ich freue mich auf euch!

The Realm of Possibility (RoP) is an interdisciplinary, international symposium addressing issues and phenomena connected to Gender and Queer Studies. After a successful launch in 2020 with a wonderfully diverse panel of speakers, the 2021 symposium will concentrate on the topic of masculinity.  While contributions from sociology, psychology, etc. are welcome, the symposium’s focus is on cultural and artistic expressions of selfhood and zeitgeist that can be read through the lens of Gender and Queer Studies.

We will explore phenomena of masculinity throughout time and in different cultures, with some guiding questions as follows: What is masculinity? How is it taught? Is it something inherently present in cis-male bodies or is it purely performative? What does masculinity look like in the queer community? What makes toxic masculinity toxic? Is there such a thing as transmasculinity? What is the relationship between patriarchal structures and masculinity?

We invite students of all levels, teachers, PhD students, postdocs, professors, and alumni to send in proposals for academic papers of 15-20 minutes.

If you are interested in presenting a paper, please send an abstract of no more than 300 words and a short biographical note (of 3-5 lines, including your pronouns and your current field of studies) by 15 September 2021 to the following email address: [email protected].
