Kia Ora Di,

Glad to hear that you had a fruitful time in Canada. I was Up there in 2004 where as well as having the privilage of being in Meg Wheatley's stream which was rich with learnings, I gave an evening presentation on Tipu Ake ki te Ora www.tipuake.org.nz This is quietly perculating around the globe, becoming more relevant as people find themselves working in what looks like an even more chaotic world. Hope your husband is feeling better. We must catch up sometime

Regards
Peter

Di, I was being Wali and forgot to invite your personally. Note: Please, see my lastest blog on Glenda Eoyang, I welcome your feedback and comments on the blog.

Di, check out my lastest blog :)

I trust that you will enjoy your new insights and learning this summer in Halifax with invited guest speakers and facilitators. I invite you to be open to learning an emerging field of the science of complexity, i.e., Human Systems Dynamics (HDS) and the Complex Adaptive Systems (CAS) in organic systems, i.e., organizational settings. The scholarship of Daniel Goleman and his research team in community life of humans describes it precisely as having the "science of results", to be adaptive in chaotic environments, no matter what. I am thanking you in advance for listening and being opened for giving yourself permission for new learning and new ways of being. I wish you the best ever learning at ALIA this summer. If you choose, please give my warmest regards to Glenda.

Now let's have beautiful exchanges/conversations and see our beautiful differences and notice our how beautifully we as individuals can place them in containers to make the difference that is the difference as we pursue three questions: What, so what, and now what? in multiple stories and realities. Subsequently, we would have the capacity to influence the difference that makes the difference and repeat the process, as it relates to organizational settings in chaotic environments, peace and conflict projects, substance abuse programs, programs with effective treatment for veterans suffering with symptoms of PTSD, marriages, youth at risk programs, leadership development programs, restoring lack of trust efforts, leading transformation projects, organizational culture change projects, integrating spirituality and leadership in organization development programs, transitional moments and non-verbal communication projects and/or case studies, and developing coherence in social intelligence in organizations projects and/or case studies. We look forward to the engagement and learning.

Warm regards,
Wali

There is another NZer going there too...Gael Surgenor from MSD. Perhaps we could arrange mutually suitable time. Go well Travel safe, Lisa

Thank you Di for making a choice to join my page as a friend. I am praying for the very best for you, as you continue to explore and engage your learning journey with your life work. Due to prior commitments, I will not be able to attend this summer learning program. Recently, I sent a message to my fellow members of ALiA Africa Group. Now, I am making a choice to share my message with you. With joy and excitement, Wali

A message from Wali Mutazammil to all members of
Africa Group on ALIA Institute! April 30, 2009

I am committed, courageous, compassionate with great energy and positive spirit playing large wherever I am needed in Africa. I join ALiA Africa Group to be with leaders like you who are being and becoming authentic leaders with focused mindedness toward Africa, specifically to renew, replenish, refresh, restore, and revive its great people and culture.

Currently, I am in the infancy stage of organizing a World Conference on the Goromonzi Project in Zimbabwe, possibility to be hosted in Halifax, Canada 2010 or 2011. Since Janet Shaw, Founder and Director of Goromonzi Project, and also one who is living in authentic leadership has been keeping me updated with their progress and development over the years; I decided I/we could be the difference in giving back to future authentic leaders with joy and abundance. How? First, we need collective prayers of your preference, positive spirit, great energy, trust-based relationships, powerful questions, new lenses (eyes), new conversations (private and public), different observers, committed actions, smart partnerships, and being curious, rather than knowers.

The "possibility" of a new beginning of how the Africa Group can show-up, not like a job where you make money which is good. The showing-up that I am inviting us to think about is how will this affect individually and collectively our journey of being and becoming an authentic leader today? Before you make a choice, please check out the link below: http://www.goromonziproject.org/newsletter.htm

Be well and keep in touch. Wali

With gratitute, Wali
