@Thomas Jordan has now built a dedicated website with resources primarily for people who want to use the IDG framework in organizations here AMAZING! Here are brief presentations of two key resources: ******* Manager’s Toolbox for Working with the Inner Development Guide This book is a practical collection of ready-to-use activities that managers and facilitators can apply directly with teams. It offers 31 clearly described exercises, ranging from a few minutes to extended sessions, each linked to specific IDG skills. The focus is on immediate usability: helping practitioners introduce inner development into meetings, workshops, and team processes without redesigning structures or requiring deep theoretical grounding. The Toolbox is especially useful as an entry point for organizations new to IDG work, or in contexts where time, mandate, or readiness for deeper structural change is limited. It emphasizes actionability and flexibility over long-term systemic design. ******* The Inner Development Guide for Teams This handbook focuses on how teams and departments develop collective capability over time. Rather than offering isolated activities, it provides structural “scaffolds” — meeting formats, routines, roles, and norms — that embed the Inner Development Guide into everyday work. Its core premise is that individual skills do not automatically become collective strengths; they must be enabled by deliberate structures and practices. The book is written for team leaders, managers, and consultants who want to shape how teams function as systems, building sustained capacities for reflection, collaboration, sensemaking, and action. It is best suited for practitioners aiming at long-term cultural change rather than quick interventions. ****** There are also a couple of web apps that give overviews of the practices, exercises, activities and structures that are described in more detail in the longer handbooks and essays.

Hi all, It was a pleasure to connect with those who were able to attend the call this morning. What a beautiful and nourishing community. I wanted to pick your brains as I have been freelancing for a while, but starting to consider searching for a more permanent/stable job and have been wondering if there is a job site linked to IDG aware/IDG progressive organisations? It feels like it would be a wonderful resource for the community..but I have yet to find one! Thanks

@Nadene Canning and myself both have our birthdays in January, we're both Capricorns. It would be fun to know some of our birthdays, and if you know it, your Zodiac sign. The poll didn't let me add 12 options, so I had to group 2 months together. If you like, add your exact birthdate and zodiac sign in the comments ;-)

Many work environments live by the mantra: "What gets measured, gets done." Does this mean that IDG adoption @work depends on our ability to measure it? If so, is it even possible to measure Inner Development? Or does it risk over-simplifying the vastness of our human Beingness?
