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
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?

Be well and keep in touch. Wali
