Most of us know how to find our way home. When folk musician Anne Hills sings, “Followthat road; back through time, back through distance, back to me,” we easily conjure upimages of the people and places that we’ve left behind. But when we are called on to traversetime and distance in the other direction, using our imaginations instead of our memories, thetask is, understandably, much harder.

Yet every day, we make decisions that require us to make assumptions about the future, oftenminimizing our risk by sticking to a horizon that’s close enough to see—the next fiscal quar-ter, the next standardized testing cycle, the next election. As leaders in a time of unprece-dented complexity, we know we must expand our comfort zone. In matters as vast as globalclimate change and as immediate as our own organizational lives, our capacity for graspingthe landscape of the future is critical to the quality of the choices we make now.

At this conference, we will celebrate systems thinking as a way of being and as a practicaltoolset that helps us measure and understand the time and distance that separate us from theconsequences of our actions. With stories, ideas, and practices, we will embolden each otherwith the courage and humility to look farther down that road ahead and to accept our sharedresponsibility for shaping a tomorrow we will be proud to hand off to our children and thechildren of our neighbors around the globe.

See you in November!

and applications I’ve encountered at the

Pegasus Conference every year brings me

back for more.”—Bill Bellows, Pratt & Whitney Rocketdyne

Powerful Times: Making Sense of an Uncertain WorldEAMONN KELLY

The unknown, unexpected, and unimagined have longbeen central to the human drama, and yet the level ofuncertainty today is radically higher than ever before. Over the past five centuries, the industrialized world hasdeveloped certain bedrock assumptions—assumptions thatare now crumbling around us through massive techno-logical, political, and social changes. As Eamonn exploresin this keynote session, the practice of scenario thinkingoffers a way to prepare for what’s coming—and transformthis moment of uncertainty into unprecedented opportuni-ty. By integrating traditional approaches with those thatrely on intuition, collective insight, emotional and spiritualintelligence, morality, and wisdom, we can move toward anew future with conviction and sustained attention ratherthan with fear.

Living and Leading on theDeveloping EdgeROGER SAILLANT

What are the conditions that allow people in organizationsto confidently set course for an unknown horizon? As CEOof Plug Power, one of the first independent commercial producers of hydrogen fuel cells, Roger has found thatopenness, accountability, and authenticity are indispensableto building trust and engagement in a rapidly evolvingenvironment. When people can rely on those values beingpresent despite the prevailing uncertainties of the businessthey’re pursuing, they generate a different kind of energytogether. In this session, Roger will share stories from thedeveloping edge about the commitment required to create aculture of inquiry capable of relentlessly pushing towardwhat’s emerging next.

Risking Your SignificanceDAWNA MARKOVA

We live in a fragmented world where the strengths inherentin our diversity go largely ignored. And yet, healthy systemsrequire diversity to remain stable, adaptable, flexible, andenergized. Only when we appreciate the unique gifts thateach of us has to offer do we open ourselves to the full potential of what we can achieve collectively. In this lively,interactive session, Dawna will use storytelling and music to lead us in an exploration of what it takes to createcoherent communities of change in which people can thinkwell together, with the purpose of cultivating wisdom.

Jobs for the Future: Investing in Tomorrow’s SuccessA PANEL PRESENTATION

As a global community, how do we create a workforce that meets the demands of a changing economy? And froma human standpoint, how do we make sure that all youngpeople make a successful transition to adulthood and thatall adults have the education and skills they need toadvance in family-supporting careers? Through partnershipswith communities, foundations, and other organizations,the nonprofit Jobs for the Future works to strengthen society by accelerating the adoption of what’s new, what’sneeded, and what works in helping youth and adultsacquire the skills that employers require. In this session,hear from leaders on the frontlines of creating tomorrow’sworkforce.

We’ve Never Been Here BeforePETER SENGE

Our difficulty in confronting today’s problems—from organizational issues to global warming—is that they arefundamentally more complex than those of the past. With the ever-increasing pace of change, our ability to seeand understand this alien territory demands renewed faithin our underutilized capacity for thinking systemically. As he has done so provocatively in each of the past 15years, Peter will draw on the emergent themes of the conference to help us frame the questions that will inspireus to take wiser, more effective action in our organizationsand in the world.

Enhancing the Conference Experience

Getting the most out of this conference involves not just thenumber of sessions you attend, but your own intention to be fully involved with other participants and the overall conference environment. We’ve called upon the talents of several people to set the stage for learning.

LINDA BOOTH SWEENEY provides the weaving and thematic integration through-out the program, framing and context-ualizing the sessions to enable deeper learning and understanding. A researcher

and systems educator, Linda has a doctorate fromHarvard’s Graduate School of Education, and is thecoauthor of The Systems Thinking Playbook and theauthor of When a Butterfly Sneezes.

MICHELLE BOOS-STONE, founder/principalof Gecko Graphics, captures the plenary sessions through mind-mapping graphics,conveying the emotional and intellectualessence of the presentations with captivatingdrawings.

“I have found my people! Because of my previous mental models about how one applies principlesand tools, I couldn't ‘get’ how to use systems thinking. I kept looking at it as a ‘solution generator,’instead of a way of describing an issue and a way of investing in trust—trust that those talking about theissue together can find a solution. There is no silver bullet, but there is a silver lining—working together,we can accomplish amazing things. See you in 2006!” —Peg Carlson-Bowen, 2005 Conference Participant

FUTURE SEARCH:USING THE WISDOM OF THE WHOLE SYSTEMRichard M. Lent, Brownfield & Lent; and Nancy Aronson,Arsht/Aronson

How do you get a diverse group of stakeholderswith different perspectives and opinions commit-ted to a common vision and actions? Hundredsof businesses, governmental agencies, educationalinstitutions, and communities have used FutureSearch, a large-group, interactive planningprocess, to achieve shared goals and fast actionaround complex issues. In this session, Rick andNancy will draw on their experience running

dozens of future searches across a variety of sectors to sharetheir learning. Learn about how Future Search works, get first-hand experience with a few of its tools, and hear aboutspecific applications in education.

PARTNERING TO CREATE TOMORROW’S LEADERS:THE TWIN CITIES LATINO COALITIONSayra Pinto, Twin Cities Latino Coalition; Daniel Asquino,Mt. Wachusett Community College; Ed Cronin, Fitchburg, MAPolice Department; and Other Coalition Partners

Over the past several decades, the Latino population of the “twin cities” of Fitchburg andLeominster, Massachusetts, has grown expo-nentially. Nevertheless, dynamics of racism andpoverty have limited the integration of Latinosinto the mainstream community. The TwinCities Latino Coalition has been applying systems thinking concepts in building cross-sectoral alliances with the aim of ensuring thatLatino families achieve their highest potential.Focusing on organizational structures alreadyengaged in some kind of systemic change effort,organizers have introduced dialogue and values

alignment to help stakeholders talk with and understand eachother. Hear from community leaders as they tell how diverseinstitutions have come together to build leadership capacityin the Latino community.

RE-EVOLUTION: YOUTH ARE THE EXPERTS ON YOUTHDeborah Frieze, The Berkana Institute; Tim Merry, The Shire;and the Re-evolution Youth

What does it take to engage young people in thecritical issues of our time? In many of today’sdominant systems, young people feel theiractions have little or no impact. How can wesupport young people in shifting from breakdownor apathy to peer leadership and self-reliance?How can we amplify the youth leadership that isalready there? This session will be co-hosted byfive grassroots youth leaders who are stepping

forward to make a difference in their community. Using aleadership model called the “Art of Hosting,” participate inconversations around how to engage youth in your own community and organization.

UNCOVERING THE WILL TO CREATE THE FUTURE WEWANT: THE “U-PROCESS” IN PRACTICE AT NISSANTracy Huston, Nissan; and Sherry Immediato, Society forOrganizational Learning (SoL)

How do we develop both the capacity and thewill for change, in harmony with the changingglobal context and our own aspirations? ForNissan and other members of the Society forOrganizational Learning, one key may be the “U-Process” of transformational change discussed inthe book Presence, by Peter Senge, C. OttoScharmer, Joseph Jaworski, and Betty SueFlowers. Learn about Nissan’s innovative

leadership development work with a cross-cultural group ofexecutives, who are entering this “presencing” space touncover the individual and collective will to both adapt toand shape the future.

LEADING SYSTEMIC CHANGE:BUILDING THE FUTURE FROM THEPAST AND PRESENT

David Peter Stroh, Bridgeway Partners;Michael Goodman, Innovation AssociatesOrganizational Learning

THE U-PROCESS: FROM THEORY TO PRACTICE

LeAnne Grillo, Adam Kahane, and Susan Taylor, Generon Consulting

Today’s most pressing challenges are character-ized by high dynamic, generative, and socialcomplexity. The U-Process helps organiza-tions and multistakeholder groups addressproblems in a systemic, creative, and partici-pative way by enabling them to deepen theirunderstanding of the issue, innovate, developthe necessary leadership to move forward, andput new ideas into action. In this fast-paced,experiential session, practice the capacitiesneeded to navigate the “U.” Build your toolkit as you move from sensing—developingan in-depth understanding of your system’scurrent reality; to presencing—allowing yourinnate wisdom to identify and bring a newreality into being; and finally to realizing —designing and testing alternative solutionsthat dramatically shift the system.
