Transformation: A shift in the paradigm Paradigm defines the way we see the world. It shapes our actions and results. It is what we call "reality". Like eyeglasses with colored lenses, our paradigm colors whatever we perceive. We do not think "about" the paradigm; we think "from" the paradigm. A shift in the paradigm creates a whole new world of possibilities that allows people to see old things in a new light.
Through conversations and exercises, we coach people to step outside of their current limited paradigm of working together . Thus invent a new paradigm of partnership and leadership for a shared future. The new paradigm provides an enormous amount of innovation, creativity and effectiveness. Producing extraordinary results is the natural outcome of this new paradigm.
Two stonecutter artisans pursuing their craft were observed by travelers passing by.
One traveler, seeing the first, remarked on his diligence and effort. "What is it you're doing?" he asked. "I'm chipping away at this block of stone," came back the reply. To the second, also hard at work, the traveler posed the same question. "I'm an artist," the craftsman answered.
At first glance the picture "is" a light bulb. Shifting the paradigm, one could see the tail end of an elephant.
When a paradigm shifts a whole new world of possibility will be come available.
