Change is happening really fast. The uncertainty, disruption, and complexity we currently face is accelerating rather than resolving and the path through the chaos to a regenerative future seems unclear.
Finding that path requires a journey that takes us to the root causes of society's dysfunction to shift the dynamics underlying systems. Through this journey we explore the questions:
- How can we learn to lead in these times?
- What are the skills, capacities, and resources that will support us?
- Where are the individuals, groups, and organizations that we can connect and collaborate with?
u-lab supports change-makers globally with the tools, methods, and spaces to bring about meaningful transformations in the communities, organizations, and systems they care deeply about.
Through u-lab, individuals and groups around the world are guided through a learning-by-doing experience where they apply the methods and tools of Theory U to issues that matter to them, building their capacity to lead transformative change in the process.
Important reminders:
