Summary

Make a profound and lasting difference with your life。 Start with understanding regenerative change。

It's within our grasp to transform with a paradigm of systematic change and ensure we affect every level of life。 The possibilities of personal, organizational, and even global evolution are right before us。

In a time when meaningful change is limited by error-filled practices conceived before quantum science, outside wisdom communities, and without an understanding of living systems, it's time to re-think。 Instead, embrace a theory based on the oldest and most proven way to create systemic change。

Combining over four decades of author Carol Sanford's research and experience with rich traditions of Indigenous and lineage sources and quantum cosmologies, Indirect Work translates living systems understanding into a practical human technology for daily life at home and work。 Through foundational wisdom and exercises for self-discovery, this guide will illuminate your understanding of the unlimited power of regenerative change and how we can become agents for a world that works for all alive。

You're about to discover:

- How to develop your consciousness and engage as a systemic change agent for the success of life's systems working as a whole。
- Strategies to evolve an organizational culture to one smarter and more courageous at tackling change。
- Self-directed personal agency while considering the effects on other people and the world around you。
- On-demand, higher-level thinking to process how complex systems and circumstances are unfolding in real time。
- Better methods to break old patterns of working that lead to degenerative outcomes。

Shift your mind to work with counterintuitive transformation consistent with how living systems work。 Get Indirect Work for a path to self-motivated, evolutionary change in service to a greater whole。

Inspiring and encouraging book with a lot of useful information。 Improving oneself is something we all want and this book is a great start towards the goal of achieving higher results。 What I liked about it is that the tips shared in this book can be used in the everyday life as well as in the business。 I highly recommend。

Not quite true。 I wrote it

This is a really good book。Indirect Work serves as a Resource — a kind of key to Sanford's five other books。 Never before had I been able to see so clearly how a theory of change (invisible w/o reflection) lies in the background, working all the while influencing my designs, the instruments i select, and where in the system intervention。 How did I miss this!? Really gets me going to consider the potential。 A huge mental shift is involved in what Sanford is proposing。 Fortunately, the intermezzo This is a really good book。Indirect Work serves as a Resource — a kind of key to Sanford's five other books。 Never before had I been able to see so clearly how a theory of change (invisible w/o reflection) lies in the background, working all the while influencing my designs, the instruments i select, and where in the system intervention。 How did I miss this!? Really gets me going to consider the potential。 A huge mental shift is involved in what Sanford is proposing。 Fortunately, the intermezzo exercises (deceptively simple at first) were rigorous, powerful enough that I was able to arrive at a new understand in terms of theory of change, seeing the potential of working at this level of upstream design, backwards from effects。 Indirect Work is way more exciting than I had been led to believe。I plan to return to the section where Sanford explores culture。 To what is status given。 Totem in organizational culture (re)generation。 Ritualizing development。 Inner and Outer Work。 Living Systems Thinking。 The 7 First Principles of Regeneration。 The Four (4) Caveats offered by Socrates, Albert Einstein, Thomas Kuhn, David Bohm。 More to explore。Indirect Work leaves me curious to discovery about ***what else is operating in the background*** of my designs, and what I'm unconsciously being worked by, a paradigm blindness, and over time generate greater coherence between intention and effect。 Sanford delivers on her stated aim to make Indirect Work "intelligible and useful"。 Deep Work。#IndirectWork #Regeneration #WorkDesign #TheoryofChange #Business #ChangeManagement #OrganizationalChange #LivingSystems 。。。more
