Holdt foredrag på Jobcenter Københavns mini-konference om entreprenørskab. Mit tema var grunde til at blive entreprenør.

CBS creates online course about business studio teaching and learning. As one of the studio teachers at CBS, I’m in the course.

Over that past two years, I’ve been teaching students at CBS how to create vibrant communities both inside and around their start-ups, how to enhance the quality of the conversations they have around the development of their start-ups, and how to turn conflicting views into super-fuel for creativity.  Such learning objectives cannot be achieved through lecturing alone. In the studio, I can work with a broad range of exercises, and I can demonstrate what I’m teaching by staying alert to what is happening in the room and using whatever emerges to enhance the teaching experience.

Ved sidste års Facilitatortræf, holdt jeg et oplæg om at bruge embodied cognition til at øge lederes effektivitet. Siden da har jeg udgivet en bog om emnet: Sensory Templates and Manager Cognition.

I år er jeg en del af planlægningsgruppen og jeg glæder mig meget til at opleve årets oplægsholdere. Det bliver episk. Biletterne blev udsolgt allerede to måneder inden træffet den 24/8. Du kan dog stadig se nogen inspirerende videoer, hvor oplægsholderne fortæller kort om deres emner:

The students on the Fine Art of Leadership course, lead by Daved Barry, are developing a theatre piece that will be used as an artistic intervention in the Danish organization Cultural Copenhagen. I was invited to teach some general points about how to work with art creation. I chose to teach about the use of scores and improvisation in developing performances.

A score is a set of instructions that performers follow when performing. For example, the manuscript used by actors or the written sheet music used by musicians. In dance, scores are used to frame and focus improvisations. They can be used as guidelines for improvised performances that are shown to an audience or in chorographical work with dancers, where material for a new performance is developed through a series of improvisations.

Here are the slides I used: Scores and Performances

Ethics is not just about following a code of conduct. It is about being able to sense in one’s body when something is not aligned. We used meditation techniques and art appreciation to develop an awareness of the moment-to-moment felt sense experience that is so important do develop when dealing with ethics.
