Summary

A revolutionary guide to catalyzing multi-system change and planetary healing.

Experience 7 practices combined with powerful frameworks to create a more integrated and conscious future from the bestselling author of Theory U.


We are living in a time of unprecedented crisis and breakdown. But amid the chaos, small "islands of coherence" are emerging—localized pockets of pioneering thought leaders taking action to begin to catalyze multi-system transformation.

Incorporating proven frameworks like Social Fields and the Collective Evolutionary Mirror, the authors share transformative real-world stories of these islands of coherence from the frontlines of change across the globe. You'll go inside the experiences of paradigm-shifting change makers and gain powerful practices for sensing and actualizing the future that wants to emerge.

This book outlines  7 critical contributions for elevating our civilization including:

  • becoming aware
  • generative listening
  • dialogue and co-sensing
  • presencing
  • ecosystem leadership
  • co-creating across boundaries
  • build unity

With this holistic guide, you'll discover how your local actions can cascade into a planetary movement for human and ecological flourishing. The next renaissance is emergent—be a part of birthing it into reality.
