SUMMARY:ANDlightnenment: The Joy of Seeing & Leveraging Polarities
DESCRIPTION:Join IODA and Douglas O’Loughlin for our first 2025 program as we delve into how understanding the dynamics of polarities can transform our personal and professional lives. Drawing from his book “ANDlightenment: Polarity Thinking\, from Self to Society\,” Douglas will guide us in exploring how leveraging polarities can help us navigate complexity\, make better decisions\, and reduce conflict—both within ourselves and in our organizations. \n\n\n\nIn this session\, you’ll discover how polarities—such as Stability AND Change\, Part AND Whole—can be used to foster balance and serve a greater purpose. These often-overlooked dynamics are key to improving organizational performance and harmony. \n\n\n\nFor a glimpse of the session’s content\, check out Douglas’ insightful 12-minute TEDx talk on polarities. \n\n\n\nABOUT THE SPEAKER\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDouglas O’Loughlin\, PhD is the Principal of The Dao of Thriving and an Associate Consultant with the Civil Service College (CSC). Douglas believes that organizations and communities can flourish and contribute to the growth and development of individuals\, and that polarity thinking can help make this happen. \n\n\n\nOriginally from New York\, he first visited Asia when he was with AT&T\, and ended up living in Singapore in 1993 after a series of serendipitous events. He has worked as a Senior Principal Consultant in the Singapore Public Service and has worked across all sectors and in more than 20 countries\, and has written three books. Douglas has facilitated Polarity Thinking workshops for all types of groups\, has done a TEDx talk on polarities\, and is a certified practitioner from Polarity Partnerships. \n\n\n\nEVENT DETAILS\n\n\n\nDate: Saturday January 18th\, 2025 \n\n\n\nDuration: 90 minutes \n\n\n\nCost: This workshop will be free of charge for members of IODA and U$D15 for non-members. \n\n\n\nTime: 06:00 New York | 08:00 Santiago | 11:00 London | 12:00 Amsterdam | 19:00 Singapore | 22:00 Sydney.
