The Presencing process is a journey that connects us more deeply both to what wants to emerge in the world and to our emerging, higher self. An international network has been developed to apply the Presencing approach in organizational and social change.

On Monday, Oct. 24, Otto Scharmer (author, Theory U), Peter Senge (director of the Center for Organizational Learning at the MIT Sloan School of Management) and the Presencing Institute are organizing a Presencing Global Forum in Boston. InCommons is proud to support and take part in a parallel conference at Minnesota Landscape Arboretum in Chaska from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. We invite you, your colleagues, friends and family to join us registering today at http://presencing.eventbrite.com/.
