Interpersonal Shift

Interpersonal Shift

29 April, 6, 13, and 20 May

Grow your capability and benefits of navigating the progression: loneliness -> aloneness -> friendship -> developmental friendship -> evolutionary friendship.

We know intuitively how important it is for having a good life to have good friends. We know less about how to cultivate friendships that can continually evolve and grow into a developmental relationship where we care not only for each other’s well-being but also, for reaching our fuller potential. We know even less about how to sustain the qualities of such friendship in larger webs of mutually supportive relationships.

This learning journey is aimed at filling those gaps and equipping you with the competence in participating and cultivating “higher WE” spaces.

Topics that we may address in this module include, depending on your interest:

  • The difference between loneliness and aloneness
  • Nonviolent communication
  • What makes one trustworthy
  • Types of friendship and how to nurture each
  • Creating #safespace and #bravespace
  • How to find my “tribe”
  • Circles of support: from belonging to becoming
  • Embracing conflict, and other qualities of developmental friendship
  • The practice of 4 levels of listening: downloading, debate, emphatic, and generative

Learning outcomes

  • Skills and practices for upshifting your professional and personal relationships
  • Distinguishing the developmental stage of your WE-spaces, and nurturing their evolution
  • How to open up to others to connect truly, when & how to be vulnerable
  • Revisiting your relationships from a ‘developmental partnership’ perspective
  • Skills of Committed Communication

Learning Journey Description

The Interpersonal Shift is a segment of a longer learning expedition: Protopia — Grow your future with evolutionary impact. You can join this segment of the Protopia expedition by taking it separately or together with the rest of it.

The program includes collaborative action research, 1-on-1 mentoring, the use of a state-of-the-art online learning environment, and working on real-world projects supported by the collective intelligence of our international cohort and the Learning Guides.

The journey’s facilitation is inspired by the 5 principles of the Campus’ educational credo (Holistic, Experiential, Praxis-driven, Transformative, and Co-creative) explained here.

According to our alumni, the successful completion of our learning journeys requires, on average, 6 hrs/week dedicated to your study, including one real-time session per week of 120 minutes, self-study, and group assignments.

The dates are 29 April, 6, 13, 20 May, Thursdays, 18:30-20:30, Brussels time.
