Spiral Dynamics in Action: What can we learn from Don Beck\u2019s outstanding work in South Africa to help address current conflicts around the world?<\/div>\n
\n
\n

On numerous occasions during the late 1980s and early 1990s Don Beck<\/strong> visited South Africa. In total he worked here 63 times, in the corporate and political space. Don was sent to South Africa by Clare Graves in 1986 to test their theoretical assumptions about what is now known as Spiral Dynamics. Apartheid <\/strong>and the impact of these events was at an all-time high, social unrest was a daily occurrence, and heavy U.S. sanctions were crippling the local economy. Internationally, there were fears that South Africa was on the brink of a civil war. Together with Loraine Laubscher <\/strong>conversations with leaders like Nelson Mandela, Desmond Tutu, FW de Klerk and other political leaders were facilitated. <\/p>\n

Our guest Dr Rica Viljoen<\/strong> was the founder member of Mandala Consulting, a respected organisation dedicated to organisational development and research. She worked closely with the late dr Don Beck and dr Loraine Laubscher on geo-political trends and their impact on individuals and the organisations they belong too. She established the Centre of Human Emergence Africa and has become an international recognised thought leader in spiral dynamics and integral research. Her research on inclusivity<\/strong> gained widespread recognition for its potential impact in the field of Management, Spirituality and Religion. The approach she developed, which emphasises listening to the voices of the entire social system, has been successfully implemented in 42 countries, engaging more than 100000 participants. Rica got many important rewards for her academic endeavours. She published 9 books of which the book Spiral Dynamics In Action is translated in 9 languages. Her purpose in life is to listen to untold stories and facilitate healing.<\/p>\n

During the conversation in this salon, Rica Viljoen will share stories and insights<\/strong>; not only on how Spiral Dynamics contributed to the prevention of a Civil War in South Africa; but also on the memories of Don shared in the 8 years of close cooperation with him. She will also incorporate the auto-ethnographic reflections of Loraine with which she spent 12 years.<\/p>\n

Towards the end the group will collectively reflect on how the spiral can be useful in dealing with a cauldron of diverse social conflicts<\/strong>, with an attempt at weaving together an integral tapestry of humanness from which we all might learn. <\/p>\n

The salon is online via ZOOM <\/strong>and will last ca. 2,5 hours. Rica will join us for the whole session, the language is English. We ask a contribution between 5 \u2013 25 euro to participate in the salon to collect some money to organise these meetings.
