CLIMATE ACTION

The u.lab climate action track is for anyone who is interested in applying Theory U and u.lab to creating new possibilities or deepening the potential of existing work on climate change. In each session we will share how the tools of u.lab are being applied to climate-related work, and what we are learning from this. Given that u.lab will be taking place in a critical period for securing commitments to climate action – by governments, companies, organizations, cities and communities – this track will also be a space for sharing information, inspiration and opportunities for action.

BUSINESS

The business track of u.lab invites leaders of business interested in addressing leadership and business challenges with the social technologies and tools of Theory U. Over the course of a four-part online dialogue running alongside u.lab, we will explore the application of individual and organizational change management tools as applied in companies across industries. We will explore the possibilities for, and impact of, building the capacity of individuals and teams to sense into the emerging future and operate from a place of highest potential. During the dialogues, we will share our work, practices and questions - and explore what it can mean to lead business as a force for good.

HIGHER EDUCATION

The higher education track invites u.lab participants working in colleges and universities to connect and co-inspire. It is a series of virtual gatherings for educators using u.lab/Theory U in their teaching and research and also for educators, students, staff and administrators using the framework and tools to help catalyze systemic change in their institutions. We will share our work and the questions emerging from that work, sense into the larger landscape of higher education and explore together what it means to reimagine the 21st Century university.

GOVERNMENT

The Government track is for people working in government who are interested in social change and are applying awareness based system change methods in their work. In this track we will dive deeper into our exploration of how to use these methods to achieve change in government. Running alongside this fall’s u.lab 1x, the intention of this track is to provide a space to share experiences and questions, grow capacity and support our individual and collective change journeys in government systems with deepened understanding and perseverance.
