SoL European Forum 2012
Welcome to Stockholm and The SoL European Forum May to explore
the Transformation of Organisations and Values in a new reality!
- How can we contribute to the systemic change going on in organizations, business and society at large (economy, ecology, politics …)?
- Is there a need for a new generation of leadership?
- How can we, as a SoL community, engage our collective intelligence to address today’s challenging issues?
SoL Sweden, on behalf of The Society for Organizational Learning is delighted to invite you to explore the shift taking place in Europe in cultural, ecological and economic fields and its challenge for our corporations and societies.
We strongly believe that you are part of the next generation of leadership and welcome you to co-create the new reality at The SoL European Forum 2012 from a perspective of Organizational Learning and Systemic change.
The SoL European Forum is open to everyone, SoL members and non-members, from the whole global society.
You will experience three days where you meet with other inspiring people and learn about ideas, theories and experiences related to ”Co-creating a new reality – transforming organizations and values !”.
We will meet for plenary sessions, workshops, learning circles, breaks and activities that will stimulate your learning and exploration. All through there will be dialogue where you can challenge your thoughts with others and engage in collective learning.
Every morning and throughout the three days we will invite you to shorter moments of mindful movements, music, meditations and other activities that will stimulate body, feelings and mind. We will also spend time in nature, being in a beautiful park.
Will inspire and plant a seed with keynote speakers, and a smorgasbord of different workshops. The evening will be spent in different locations downtown Stockholm.
Will open up for tools for transformation in learning circles with experienced storytellers from different companies. There will be more workshops, an Open Space addressing next generation values and visions and also inspiring and interesting leaders speaking.
Is about integration of learnings, harvesting and reflecting in groups, bringing it to a personal level. A keynote will start our day and we will also use nature as a teacher.

The next generation of Leadership
The new generation of companies are contributing to real change in harmony with the needs of people and society. New business models are rapidly emerging, built on transparency, values and collaboration in cooperation with consumers and competitors. A combined economical, ecological and social shift changes the reality for leadership both in organizations and society at large.
The core essence of the new generation of leadership calls for people’s participation. It comes down to you and me and what we can create together. It’s not a question of age, it’s about our ability and courage to take a new leadership in our personal and professional lives. It raises questions such as: How do we want to lead and be led? How do we want to organize and be organized? How can we inspire and be inspired? And how can we bring the new leadership to emerge? Read more…
