Beyond Facilitation 2025
2025-10-27 11:00 - 13:30 (America/Los_Angeles)
BEYOND FACILITATION 2025
MONDAYS, OCTOBER 27TH – NOV 11TH
HOSTED V=BY AMY LENZO & MARY ALICE ARTHUR
There are so many things changing right at the moment, that it can feel we are continually standing on the edge of the unknown. In many places the mood is fearful, conflictual or depressed. Systems, businesses and people are struggling.
We’ve been keeping an eye on some of our close colleagues who are pioneering how to work at the edges and at the intersection of CHAOS and CHAMOS — which is a Greek word for fundamental breakdown. We want to hear and harvest their stories to give us both courage and new perspectives about how to host in these challenging times.
Sharing and harvesting stories of working with challenge and pioneering at the edges is a great practice for times like these.
We will be using the Collective Story Harvest method — which Mary Alice helped create — to work with these stories and to give you a powerful methodology for engaging and involving the people and systems you work with so they can survive and thrive.
It’s time to do things differently. Come and learn from practitioners working at the edge and see how our stories and applied story work can provide a place where we can take shelter from the storm and find understanding and strength with each other. This is how to find the future in the present.

Tom Hurley On “Chaordic Stories”
November 4th, 2025
The Chaordic space, path, practice, organizations, lenses and chaordic leadership have been the foundation of how many of us understand complexity, living systems and our work in an ever changing world.

As the previous CEO of the Chaordic Alliance, with VISA founder Dee Hock, Tom consulted widely on the design of purpose-centered, values-based organisations that can thrive in today’s complex, fast-paced world.
