About Event
We live in an ever-changing and complex world, and the spiritual landscape is no exception!
We often are faced with problems that cannot be addressed by ‘either/or’ solutions, because these “problems” aren’t problems at all; they are “polarities.”
Polarities
Polarities are also known as paradoxes, tensions, dilemmas, conflicts, and wicked problems. Polarities are interdependent pairs that need each other over time. They are energy systems in which we live and which live in us.
Problems
Problems have independent solutions—they can be solved. Polarities require a “both/and” mindset, and trying to choose between the two ‘solutions’ creates tension, slows innovation, and keeps individuals and organizations swinging between two mediocre states, or just completely stuck, and even stagnating.
Surviving and Thriving
Knowing how to move in the life energies of polarities can make the difference between surviving and thriving. This workshop will challenge you to work on your own spiritual maturity as well as the maturity of the organization or community in which you are involved.
