Leading From the Emerging Future: from ego-system to eco-system economies by Otto Scharmer and Katrin Kaufer

'We have entered an age of disruption. Financial collapse, climate change, resource depletion, and a growing gap between rich and poor are but a few of the signs. Collectively, despite our best efforts, we are producing results that nobody wants. We must move away from an obsolete 'ego-system' awareness that focuses entirely on the well-being of the individual-be it a single person, group, organization, or country-to an eco-system awareness that emphasizes the well-being of the whole. To free ourselves from outmoded ways of perceiving the world, we need the capacity to sense and actualize emerging future possibilities, both individually and collectively. Scharmer and Kaufer here describe a method they call presencing (a combination of the words presence and sensing). It enables the development of institutional innovation and new leadership capacities so leaders can connect to the highest future possibility and become part of what brings it about.' -- Publisher's website.
