Art of Dynamic Competence: Creating Success in Changing Times

Whether you are feeling overwhelmed or absolutely ready to seize the moment, the Art of Dynamic Competence shows us how best align ourselves with whatever situation we find ourselves in, creating success in changing times. At its core, Dynamic Competence describes how we consciously understand the situations in which we find ourselves, allowing us to create equitable and balanced solutions for all concerned.  Dynamic Competence is not static; it allows us to see our situation clearer, make better decisions, positively affect others, and feel a sense of accomplishment and happiness in our lives. Without a doubt, Dynamic Competence helps us through the hard stuff.   This podcast will explore how Dynamic Competence arises in a wide range of disciplines. From business transformations to environmental issues, Dynamic Competence can help us describe success and manifest this success in our own lives. Managers, leaders, artists, coaches, trainers… all have stories that illustrate how the Art of Dynamic Competence works. We welcome you to explore these possibilities with us.

    Explorations of Past, Present, and Future

    In Episode 41, we continue our conversations with Dr. Kerri Welch, we're utilizing these quantum mechanical concepts to explore our sense of the past, present, and future experiences and how they manifest within us. As we oscillate between satisfaction and desire, we also have the potential to feel different manifestations of time. And from this, we can begin to explore the differences between life as a separation from things and life as a journey that is unfolding.

In the podcast, we will explore ways that the trauma expressed itself and how ordinary Germans cope with this trauma. What we found fascinating about Dr. Black's research was the applicabil...

    A New Church

    In Episode 38, we are joined by Steve Goyer and Dennis Whittle, a minister and an entrepreneur, who walk regularly, contemplating what is working and not working in today’s religious organizations. We wanted to talk with them about their walks and explore what has arisen from their conversations.

    Introduction to "I'm Where?"

    In this podcast we are sharing an introduction to the new 3x3 matrix that he is calling "I'm Where?" We have been exploring how Tom has been merging our work in Dynamic Competence, with this wonderful, light way that Jean Gebser’s writings are exploring the worlds that we live in. This podcast came together as an amazing intro to why Tom created this matrix and the impact of Gerber’s writing on this life and work. For all you exploring new ways to live into this world, this is an amazing exam...

    I'M Where? #1

    In Episode 34, we’re doing something a little different. From the last sessions, Tom May has pulled together a matrix that he is now using in his work and life. We thought that we might share it with you and see how you might refine it with us. Tom was inspired to combine the original metacognitive work by our mother Mary May with the new work that I have been doing with Jeremy Johnson on Jean Gebser’s book, Ever Present Origin. You can download Tom’s matrix from our website a...
