In our April InnerDevelopment@Work community call last week, we explored abundance – not as a goal to chase, but as a mindset we can cultivate. Not in some faraway ideal – but right here, in our everyday lives and in our work with clients and organizations. 🌱 Nature constantly creates abundance – yet we often rush past it, disconnected. As changemakers, we see how this rush extends into business life: there is little space for pausing, reflecting, realigning.Overconsumption, burnout, “not enough” – these are the symptoms of a deeper imbalance. Together, we reflected: 🌀 What if abundance is a matter of perspective? 🌀 What if the IDGs are not abstract ideals, but concrete levers to shift how we perceive and act – in ourselves and in systems? Especially dimensions like Complexity Awareness and Perspective Skills help us reframe: - From scarcity to presence. - From chasing more to seeing enough. - From stuckness to aligned action. 🌱 "𝑨𝒃𝒖𝒏𝒅𝒂𝒏𝒄𝒆 𝒃𝒆𝒈𝒊𝒏𝒔 𝒘𝒉𝒆𝒓𝒆 𝒅𝒊𝒔𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒏𝒆𝒄𝒕𝒊𝒐𝒏 𝒆𝒏𝒅𝒔." That was our most powerful collective insight. We would love to hear from you: 💬 What does abundance mean for you — in your life, your work, or the systems you’re part of? 🧭 How might the IDG skills — across all five dimensions of Being, Thinking, Relating, Collaborating, and Acting — help us notice and value the abundance we already have? Feel free to share your perspective in the comments — let’s make visible how diverse, grounded and human abundance can be.

One of the most frequently debated topics in the community of Inner Development Goals (IDGs) is the question: Can we measure IDGs? If so, how? @Mark Vandeneijdne , leveraging years of experience, has developed an assessment and measurement tool that provides a fresh perspective on this challenge. The IDG Measurement Tool is rooted in a unique philosophy, focusing on how skills and qualities manifest in real-life situations. Rather than serving as a rigid benchmark, this tool is 𝐝𝐞𝐬𝐢𝐠𝐧𝐞𝐝 𝐚𝐬 𝐚 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐞𝐫, helping individuals engage deeply with their inner development journey through the lens of the IDGs. 𝙆𝙚𝙮 𝙀𝙡𝙚𝙢𝙚𝙣𝙩: 𝙏𝙝𝙚 𝘿𝙚𝙗𝙧𝙞𝙚𝙛𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙄𝙣𝙩𝙚𝙧𝙫𝙞𝙚𝙬 A central feature of this process is the debriefing interview, conducted by trained practitioners. These interviews create a reflective space where participants can: - Explore their individual results in greater depth. - Gain insights into how their skills and qualities express themselves. - Discover actionable steps for growth aligned with the IDGs. We’re thrilled to announce that the first cohort of IDG Measurement Tool Practitioners has completed their training and is ready to collaborate with members of our community. 𝘼𝙣 𝙀𝙭𝙘𝙡𝙪𝙨𝙞𝙫𝙚 𝙊𝙥𝙥𝙤𝙧𝙩𝙪𝙣𝙞𝙩𝙮 𝙛𝙤𝙧 𝙊𝙪𝙧 𝘾𝙤𝙢𝙢𝙪𝙣𝙞𝙩𝙮 We are now offering community members the chance to: 1. Take an individual assessment using the IDG Measurement Tool. 2. Participate in a one-on-one debriefing interview with a trained practitioner, conducted in 𝐄𝐧𝐠𝐥𝐢𝐬𝐡 𝐨𝐫 𝐏𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐮𝐠𝐮𝐞𝐬𝐞. As this is a pioneering effort, we aim to learn together. After the interviews, we’ll host a joint call for participants and practitioners to share insights and reflections on the process. This shared learning experience will help us refine the tool and deepen our understanding of how it supports inner development. 𝘾𝘼𝙇𝙇 𝙩𝙤 𝘼𝘾𝙏𝙄𝙊𝙉 Are you curious to explore your inner development in a new and meaningful way? If you’re interested in participating in a debriefing interview after completing the assessment, we invite you to:
