Integrative Approaches in Psychiatry: Mind, Brain and Body Conference
Wolfson Lecture Theatre
King’s College, London
12:00-17:00, Friday, 11 April 2008
The first conference to explore the benefits of integrating mind, brain and body to alleviate psychological distress. This free event will provide an introduction to empirical studies that have examined the benefits of mind-body approaches. By “mind-body” we mean those approaches which draw on eastern traditions (such as meditation/mindfulness) and/or those that use the body as a means to help regulate the brain (for example yoga, floatation).
Speakers will provide an overview of the current data and speculate about how these techniques might be used to help individuals who are overwhelmed by stress and anxiety. Several of the talks will include interactive components to allow participants to experience some commonly used techniques.
Following the presentation, an interactive discussion session will explore some of the issues raised in relation to this type of work. Afterwards, everyone is invited to the Sun and Doves pub for a networking event.
Speakers
Dr. Katya Rubia (Institute of Psychiatry), Dr. Florian Ruths (South London and Maudsley Trust), Dr. Tamara Russell (Institute of Psychiatry), Dr. Robin Monro (Yoga Biomedical Trust), La La (Kundalini Yoga Therapist), Tim Studiwick (Floatworks)
This event is free but registration is required. Tamara Russell; email: t.russell@iop.kcl.ac.uk

Social Entrepreneurship, Systems Thinking, & Complexity
Adelphi University
in association with the Institute for the Study of Coherence and Emergence (ISCE) publishers of the journal Emergence: Complexity and Organization (E:CO) and the Plexus Institute are pleased to announce the:
First International Conference on Social Entrepreneurship, Systems Thinking, & Complexity
April 24-26, 2008
Adelphi University, Garden City, New York (right outside of Manhattan, near JFK Airport).
The unique and pressing challenges facing both the economic and social situations of the 21st century are calling for fundamentally new initiatives. The burgeoning arena of social entrepreneurship is one such example of how public and private organizations are forging alliances aimed at addressing these challenges. As of yet, though, there is no recognizably useful theoretical underpinning of the systemic dimension of social entrepreneurship. Recent advances in the sciences of complex systems, however, hold great promise for a more thorough understanding and grounding of social entrepreneurship activities. The need for a complexity-based perspective going beyond current linear and equilibrium-based models is even noted in the most recent guidelines for applications for funding in the area of social entrepreneurship programs.
At this conference we will bring together leading thinkers in complexity theory, social entrepreneurship, systems thinking, social innovation, and leadership research to explore questions surrounding social entrepreneurship. Attendees of the conference will gain a better understanding of the state of knowledge in these vital areas and will leave more energized and engaged in furthering the goals of social entrepreneurship. The goal of this conference is not only to provide a unique opportunity to further understanding but also to make a real difference in our world.
Complexity is the study of the dynamics of the diverse linkages and interactions among people, technology, and systems over time. This dynamic approach conceptualizes organizational systems as sets of agents (individuals, processes and mechanisms) that generate novel emergent outcomes out of their interactions.
Social entrepreneurship is increasingly seen as an important component of any national or global development strategy. Can complexity science in general, and the growing scholarship within the complex systems community that is exploring organizational, social, and leadership dynamics in particular, shed additional light on social entrepreneurship?
Systems thinking explores the systemic dimension of organizations, communities, states, and transnational entities looking for universal principles of dynamics, functioning, and enactments. Social Innovation refers to all the various methods of bringing about innovation in social systems in the direction of great sustainability, social responsibility, and the building of communities.
The organizers of this conference are Dr. Jeffrey Goldstein (goldstei@adelphi.edu) & Dr. James K. Hazy
(hazy@adelphi.edu) of Adelphi University. Questions about the conference, expectations, requirements, and the appropriateness of a topic, etc., can be answered by either of the organizers. An electronic copy of the submission should be sent to Dr. Hazy. Additional information and guidelines on the Emergence: Complexity and Organization ( E:CO) journal may be obtained by its website: http://www.emergence.org.

‘One Planet Leader’
World Wildlife Fund’s applied sustainability programme for business managers and senior executives.
WWF’s Living Planet Report shows we are currently consuming about 25% more than the planet can sustain. Many companies recognise the need to operate sustainably but struggle to turn vision into reality. We urgently need a network of ‘One Planet Leaders’ – managers from a variety of functions with new skills and new business practices…could this be you?
‘One Planet Leaders’ is a high-level professional development programme aimed at business leaders who want to make dramatic progress in building sustainability into their business models. It does not replace existing company commitments to sustainability but rather equips you to implement them effectively and strategically.
It is delivered through intensive workshops plus flexible learning over a three-month period with learning tailored to your situation. A further 100-days of support ensures implementation of your plans, after which the alumni offers an exciting network of like-minded professionals at the forefront of sustainable business.
Leaning on WWF’s unique experience of partnerships that move towards a new paradigm, ‘One Planet Leaders’ brings together the latest thinking, world class experts and innovative management tools to ensure that together we find the solutions our planet needs.
You can earn a Postgraduate Certificate in Sustainable Development through Exeter University’s’One Planet Leaders pathway and if you wish, continue for a Diploma or Masters in Sustainability with options including unique action-research modules to embed your learning into organisational practices.

Global Leadership: Portraits of the Past, Visions for the Future
A Volume in the ILA Building Leadership Bridges (BLB) Series
Michael Harvey and JoAnn Danelo Barbour, Editors
The International Leadership Association invites you to submit your work for Global Leadership: Portraits of the Past, Visions for the Future, a volume in the Building Leadership Bridges series. BLB captures the best contemporary thinking about leadership today from a diverse range of scholars, practitioners, and educators working in the field of leadership studies. In keeping with the mission of the ILA, BLB connects ways of studying, imagining, and experiencing leadership across cultures, over time, and around the world.
The 2008 theme is Global Leadership: Portraits of the Past, Visions for the Future. Is there indeed an ideal of “global leadership” that links local leadership efforts? What are the key cultural, historical, moral, and organizational contexts in which leadership—and related concepts like followership—occur? What lessons can the past provide for today’s leadership challenges? When we speak of “visions for the future,” whose visions do we mean? What role do leaders play in shaping visions, or translating them into action and outcome? Looking farther ahead, can we say anything about the future of leadership in an increasingly complex world?
Global Leadership: Portraits of the Past, Visions for the Future welcomes previously unpublished submissions that explore these aspects of leadership from diverse perspectives, disciplines, cultures and sectors. Submissions are encouraged that strengthen ties between those who practice and those who study leadership, and that foster effective and ethical leadership. We welcome scholars’ explorations of the changing field of leadership and we also welcome practitioners’ reflections, stories, and “reports from the field” that help us understand leadership at the intersections of theory and practice.
Submitted articles should be no longer than 5000 words. Identifying information (names, affiliations, and contact information of all authors) should be on a separate cover sheet. APA style should be followed. Notes should be kept to a minimum but when used should come in the form of endnotes. Send electronically to Jaro Sedlar at jsedlar@ila-net.org by May 1, 2008. Please note: The submission and review process of BLB is not linked to the ILA annual conference; you may choose to respond to one or both Calls.

Integral Education
FROM CRADLE TO KOSMOS
Exploring the leading edge of educational theory and practice
August 1–6, 2008
Whidbey Institute on Whidbey Island
Washington State
Integral education stands out as one of the most pertinent and practical means of creating positive change in ourselves and the world. This seminar will bring educators of all age groups together from around the globe, educators who are seeking the necessary vision, skills, and processes to fully serve students and the world that we inhabit.
Integral education is an emerging field, propelled by people who seek to push the envelope of what education can be. The seminar will provide a perfect environment to meet with colleagues and to network with a small but growing community that clearly understands that addressing a more complete spectrum of personal, cultural, and systemic realities at play in education is one of the most powerful ways to begin effecting the changes we hope to see in the world.
