Dear ,

As the end of the year approaches, we will be celebrating our vibrant u.lab community, initiatives and activities of 2018 during our Live Session on 13th December-- and we are looking ahead to 2019.

For the coming year, the Presencing Institute will lay a strong focus on how to shift from an ego- to an eco-system economy. To innovate this shift, we will launch three initiatives:

4.0 Lab: we invite leaders from all sectors to shape a new economy together. Rather than a learning program, this is a lab in the truest sense of the word, bringing together parties that are ready and able to lift their field to the next level over the course of 1 year. This, because we believe that we need to work across sectors, learn from each other, and create living examples of a truly new economy and society.

--> Read more about the 4.0 lab concept in  Otto's blog.

Ecosystem Leadership Program: for graduates of our Presencing Foundation Program, we offer this new advanced program designed for leaders who work from an ecosystemic intention. This learning program will run from March to November 2019.

Social Transformation Lab:  this online, multi-local innovation journey will support teams who are co-shaping more sustainable and equitable social systems worldwide.
Wishing you a great December!

Best regards,
Rachel and the PI Team
