  • Catalytic Thinking and Systems Change

    EXPERIMENTING: APPLYING CATALYTIC THINKING TO SYSTEMS CHANGE: IN 2022, OUR DEMONSTRATION PROJECTS WERE THE RESULT OF OUR SUCCESSION PLANNING DISCUSSIONS IN 2021, AS WELL AS THE FINDINGS OF OUR RESEARCH RE: THE NEED FOR SYSTEMS CHANGE WITHIN SOCIAL CHANGE ORGANIZATIONS - FINDINGS THAT WERE DOCUMENTED BY NONPROFIT QUARTERLY EARLY IN THE YEAR. THE RESULT IN 2022 WAS A MASSIVE EXPERIMENT IN DEMOCRATIZING ORGANIZATIONAL DECISIONS-MAKING, FACILITATING OUR COMMUNITY TO DECIDE WHAT'S NEXT FOR OUR WORK. SEE HTTPS://CREATINGTHEFUTURE.ORG/ACCOMPLISHMENTS-2022/ FOR DETAILS. SHARING WHAT WE LEARN ABOUT CATALYTIC THINKING AND SYSTEMS CHANGE: OUR "WHAT'S NEXT" COMMUNITY DISCUSSIONS CENTERED ON WAYS TO SHARE WHAT WE'VE LEARNED AS EFFECTIVELY AS POSSIBLE. IN ADDITION TO ONLINE CLASSES AND WEBINARS, WE HOSTED A PRACTICE COHORT APPLYING CATALYTIC THINKING TO THE DESIGN OF OUR COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT EFFORTS. IN ADDITION, BECAUSE OUR BOARD MEETINGS ARE OPEN FOR ANYONE TO WATCH AND/OR PARTICIPATE IN, THOSE MEETINGS ARE ONE MORE WAY WE SHARE CATALYTIC THINKING IN PRACTICE.
