Have you (deeply) examined your life lately?

 The upcoming CIP 2018 National Conference in Winnipeg, on the theme of Soul, is providing an opportunity for revisiting related aspects of the CIP 2017 conference in Calgary, when the theme was Building Resilience. As a College of Fellows panelist then I was inspired to explore the connection between ‘life-planning’ and ‘professional-self design’.

The overall framing of my 2017 panel offering reflected an interest in insights from the application of Theory U, an awareness-based social learning technology, dealing with themes such as absencing and presencing.

In this series I am highlighting the ‘life-planning’ foundation via three themes rooted in ‘soul-searching’ – to refresh one’s professing. The current offering, The Unexamined Life is Not Worth Living, asks: Have you (deeply) examined your life lately?
