We all realize that we have to live, live or think differently. The funny thing is that we usually think that others should change their behavior without looking at ourselves first. Change is never easy and yet we know that it is part of our lives. If you stop and think about how you looked at life carefree as a child and experimented without fear with trial and error. It was an essential part of the growth process.
It becomes all the more difficult if you also have to get a larger group of young people, people, citizens, companies, governments to move and change.
We use the construction of a ‘Yummy Jungle’ as an alibi to bring about that change.
Our own methodology“bARK for Sustainable Change” came about not only because of our years of experience as Change Managers and pioneering in digital space.
We also did very much research on other methodologies such asTheory of Change, The Prosci’s method, or Donella’s Meadow‘s systemic thinking to name a few. When introducing new technology to companies, teaching people new ways of thinking and working is daily business.
We also work very closely with educators and teachers who are also working with new methodologies in education. This includes “connectivism” in which learning networks are never far off. Our philosophy became clear.
But we went a step further because while researching good examples of community food forests , we discovered that many well-intentioned projects fail sooner or later. People get discouraged because they overlook important steps in building a community. We researched the how and why and took a look at some examples from home and abroad. We incorporated all those recommendations into our methodology and added our own expertise in storytelling.
Only sustainable communities bring about lasting change.
bARK for Sustainable Change is a new methodology that uses the creation of a Yummy Jungle as an alibi for change.
Like the birches and poplars, we are the pioneers preparing the field on which the true “edible” forest can continue to grow. We awaken and activate awareness through our method and focus on that phase before the first domino has yet to fall. Because only when you are aware of the “why” and the need is someone ready for change.After that, it is important that you can take those next steps without fear and be allowed to experiment. Looking at how things can be done differently, and in doing so, failure should always be an option. Because from a wound, beautiful pearls emerge just like an oyster. We do that by connecting people with each other and adding a “yummy Jungle.
