Ep 05- When are olders elders? Do organizations have souls? How do we go when we don't know where we're going?

When do “olders become elders?” Does an organization have a soul? What’s being asked of us and how do we respond in these complex times?Join Paul Zonneveld and Ishita Sharma to explore a new paradigm of leadership, stewardship and relationship- rooted in presence, possibility and humanness. Sharing ancient yet contemporary wisdom, they examine how to address complexity by prioritizing attunement rather than control, and what enlightened leadership looks like in the here and now.WHAT YOU’LL HEAR ABOUT:Forging purposeIntentional leadership in a new paradigmTransmitting generational wisdomPresence meets complexitySystemic intelligenceOrganizational developmentExecutive coachingEveryday spirituality + stewardshipSupporting and being supported by our elders.* Sound, silence, and ritual- invoking sacred space.* Creating intergenerational relationships and community.* Listening to our inner guidance through the body’s signals.* Constellations: a healing modality to address complex systemic, organizational and personal dynamics.* Grieving and witnessing in community.* “My heart knows your heart.”* Not only the words but the resonance the frequency the honesty with which the sound is being created.* Reinventing myself- healing insecurities and growth* Why not all olders are elders, not all adults are adults.* Bruce Springsteen- ancestors or ghost- “Elders are the ancestors of the future.”* “We are writing the history of the future” - John Murray* Seven generations, arc of long time.* Does an organization have a soul?* How can you recognize your inner wisdom?* “White space” - a moment in which your mind is not constantly occupied.* Balancing flow, structure, emergence and direction* Spiritual bypassing vs. grounded spirituality applied in leadership.* Nudging vs problem solving- how intelligent systems can self-correct* Intergenerational mentorship.* Organizational systems and family systems- how do we include each other without losing ourselves?* Maturity- recognizing soul development* Presence as the offering, the medicine.* Purpose is serving something bigger than myself.* The energy of the event happens before the event itself.* Conflict is a is a call back to coherence, and for some people conflictis the only way they can express love.* Organizational embodiment- applying mystical principles to thrive* Clock of the Long Now- understanding of time beyond clock time.// PAUL ZONNEVELD is senior executive coach and transformational faculty for top team interventions and has over 25 years of international business experience in various roles.
