Adaptive Leadership: Adaptive Leadership is a leadership practice that helps individuals work with organizations & communities to adapt and thrive in challenging environments.
Container: The process, space, qualities and structures that hold people through a change process whilst keeping them focussed on adaptation.
Cultural competency: Attitudes, behaviours and ways of interacting that show awareness, consideration, sensitivity and understanding of the history and impact of colonisation on First Nation cultures and traditions.
Cultural Intelligence: Awareness and understanding of our own and others history, identities, values and beliefs that influence how we act and interact with others on a daily basis.
Deep Democracy: Unlike traditional democracy, which focuses on majority rule, Deep Democracy proposes that for systems to make progress, all the voices, states of awareness, and frameworks of reality need to be understood, and their wisdom brought forward and integrated into the system as a whole. The concept was developed by Dr Arnold Mindell.
First Nations: The original peoples of a land. In this case the original peoples of the land now known as Australia.
First Nations expertise and models of working: Experience, skills and ways of doing things which are part of the history and culture of First Nation peoples.
First Nation Peoples: This includes all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people from across the many nations contained within the Australian Jurisdiction (including land & maritime boundaries).
Black: This term refers to First Nation peoples. Many people prefer ‘black’ to ‘First Nations’ or ‘Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander’ as a term that includes everyone in this group. Others prefer one of the other alternatives. When it is used, it refers to a person’s identity and not to their skin colour.
Hot Spot: An intense moment in a group or system where there is strong tension or emotional charge between individuals or a group. When something forbidden or intense happens that causes everyone to become silent, frozen or charged.
Leadership: Use of informal or formal power to help people understand and solve the challenges they experience in groups and systems. It is something we do, not something we have.
Power dynamics: how power affects a relationship between two or more people.
Process Oriented Psychology: also known as “Process work” is a psycho-social-political theory and methodology with applications in Individual therapy, relationship work, and working with processes of change through individual coaching, group facilitation, large-scale conflict transformation, and organisational development. Originally developed by physicist and Jungian Analyst Dr Arnold Mindell.
Psychology: the scientific study of the human mind and its functions, especially those affecting behaviour in any given context.
Rank: This term is used to indicate the differences types of power used between people that can change from moment to moment and across context. It can help us to understand power dynamics and how we can use it for the benefit of the group.
Relationships and connections: the way things are connected to each other.
Role: This term is used to indicate: the opinions or positions in a conversation or argument; the informal or formal relationships we have in groups or the community; the feelings present in a group; or the atmosphere created. Each of us have many roles at once, including in our families, in our communities, in our workplaces, and in our friendship groups. This term comes from Sociology [glossary link] and psychology [glossary link]. In Deep Collaboration we want everyone to understand their own and each other’s roles as they change in each moment, so we can talk about them and move into different roles when needed. Key to being able to collaborate is ‘role fluidity’. This when we are able to move into a different role and see things from a different perspective.
Role Theory/Practice: Role theory and practice is a useful leadership practice to integrate who we are, the role we take up and the context we’re working in. The theory considers most of everyday activity to be the acting out of socially defined roles (e.g., mother, manager, teacher). Each role has a set of rights, duties, expectations, norms and behaviors that a person has to face and fulfill. Role theory and practice comes from sociology and social psychology. Our use of Role theory extends to field theory in physics which sees groups as being like human magnetic fields, where individuals are pulled into different roles depending on their context.
Shared Place: This describes a conceptual space where First Nation peoples and other Australians are working together, communicating and interacting.
Sociology: the study of the development, functioning and structure of human society.
Systems Change: fundamental change in the conditions of policies, processes, relationships, power, values, norms and mindsets that lead to the emergence of new practices and ways of doing things.
Weather Reporting: providing a broad whole system view of what is happening, as it is happening, with the purpose of bringing a broader perspective to the system.
White: This term is sometimes used to refer to non-Indigenous Australians as the opposite of black in reference to First Nation peoples. It is sometimes used to include people from other cultural backgrounds as well.
Worldview: a particular mindset, paradigm, philosophy of life or way of looking at the world.
Uongozi wa Adaptive ni mazoezi ya uongozi ambayo husaidia watu kufanya kazi na mashirika na jamii ili kukabiliana na kustawi katika mazingira magumu. Mfumo wa kuhifadhi: mchakato, nafasi, sifa na miundo ambayo huwaweka watu kupitia mchakato wa mabadiliko wakati unawaweka wakilenga katika marekebisho. Uwezo wa kitamaduni: Mtazamo, tabia na njia za kuingiliana ambazo zinaonyesha ufahamu, kuzingatia, unyeti na uelewa wa historia na athari za ukoloni kwenye tamaduni na mila za Taifa la Kwanza. Ujasusi wa kitamaduni: ufahamu na uelewa wa historia yetu na wengine, utambulisho, maadili na imani ambazo zinaathiri jinsi tunavyofanya na kuingiliana na wengine kila siku. "Kulingana na demokrasia ya jadi, ambayo inazingatia utawala wa wengi, demokrasia ya kina inapendekeza kwamba kwa mifumo ya kufanya maendeleo, sauti zote, hali za ufahamu, na mifumo ya ukweli inahitaji kueleweka, na hekima yao ilileta mbele na kuunganishwa katika mfumo kwa ujumla. """ Dhana hiyo ilitengenezwa na Dakt. Arnold Mindell. Mataifa ya Kwanza: Watu wa asili wa nchi fulani. Katika kisa hiki watu wa asili wa nchi inayojulikana sasa kuwa Australia. Ujuzi wa Taifa la Kwanza na mifano ya kazi: Uzoefu, ujuzi na njia za kufanya mambo ambayo ni sehemu ya historia na utamaduni wa watu wa Taifa la Kwanza. "Watu wa kwanza wa Australia ni ""Watu wa asili na wa visiwa vya Torres Strait"" kutoka mataifa mengi yaliyo ndani ya mamlaka ya Australia, pamoja na mipaka ya ardhi na bahari." Weusi: Neno hili hurejezea watu wa Taifa la Kwanza. Watu wengi wanapendelea "mweusi" kwa "Nchi za Kwanza" au "Wenyeji wa Asili na Torres Strait Islander" kama neno ambalo linajumuisha kila mtu katika kikundi hiki. Wengine hupendelea mojawapo ya njia nyingine. Inapotumiwa, inarejelea utambulisho wa mtu na si rangi ya ngozi yake. Hotspot: Wakati mkali katika kikundi au mfumo ambapo kuna mvutano mkubwa au malipo ya kihisia kati ya watu binafsi au kikundi. Wakati kitu kilichokatazwa au chenye nguvu kinapotokea ambacho husababisha kila mtu kuwa kimya, kufungia au kushtakiwa. Uongozi: Matumizi ya nguvu isiyo rasmi au rasmi kusaidia watu kuelewa na kutatua changamoto wanazoona katika vikundi na mifumo. Ni jambo tunalofanya, si jambo tunalo. Nguvu dynamics: jinsi nguvu huathiri uhusiano kati ya watu wawili au zaidi. Utafiti wa kisaikolojia wa mchakato (Process-oriented psychology) ni nadharia ya kisaikolojia na ya kijamii na ya kisiasa na mbinu ya matibabu ya mtu binafsi, kazi ya uhusiano, na kufanya kazi na mchakato wa mabadiliko kupitia mafunzo ya mtu binafsi, kuwezesha kikundi, mabadiliko ya mgogoro mkubwa, na maendeleo ya shirika. Awali maendeleo na mwanafizikia na Jungian Mchambuzi Dk Arnold Mindell. Saikolojia ni utafiti wa kisayansi wa akili ya binadamu na kazi zake, hasa wale wanaohusika tabia katika muktadha wowote. """Rangi"" ni neno linalotumika kuelezea tofauti za nguvu zinazotumiwa kati ya watu, ambazo zinaweza kubadilika kutoka wakati mmoja hadi mwingine na katika muktadha." Inaweza kutusaidia kuelewa nguvu za nguvu na jinsi tunavyoweza kuzitumia kwa manufaa ya kikundi. Mahusiano na uhusiano: njia mambo ni kushikamana na kila mmoja. "Jina la ""mtazamo"" linatumiwa kuashiria maoni au msimamo katika mazungumzo au hoja, mahusiano yasiyo rasmi au rasmi tunayo katika vikundi au jamii, hisia zilizopo katika kikundi, au hali iliyoundwa." Kila mmoja wetu ana majukumu mengi kwa wakati mmoja, ikiwa ni pamoja na katika familia zetu, katika jamii zetu, katika maeneo yetu ya kazi, na katika vikundi vyetu vya urafiki. Neno hili linatokana na Sociology [kiungo cha msamiati] na saikolojia [kiungo cha msamiati]. Katika ushirikiano wa kina tunataka kila mtu aelewe majukumu yao na ya kila mmoja wanapoibadilisha kila wakati, ili tuweze kuzungumzia na kuhamia majukumu tofauti inapohitajika. Ufunguo wa kuwa na uwezo wa kushirikiana ni <unk>mabadiliko ya jukumu<unk>. Hii ni wakati tunapoweza kuhamia katika jukumu tofauti na kuona mambo kutoka kwa mtazamo tofauti. Kazi nadharia na mazoezi: Kazi nadharia na mazoezi ni muhimu uongozi mazoezi ya kuunganisha nani sisi ni, jukumu sisi kuchukua juu na muktadha sisi ni kazi katika. Nadharia hiyo inachukulia shughuli nyingi za kila siku kuwa ni kutenda nje ya majukumu yaliyofafanuliwa kijamii (kwa mfano, mama, meneja, mwalimu). Kila jukumu lina seti ya haki, majukumu, matarajio, kanuni na tabia ambazo mtu lazima akabili na kutimiza. Nadharia ya jukumu na mazoezi hutoka kwa sayansi ya jamii na saikolojia ya kijamii. "Kutumia kwa nadharia ya jukumu kunaenea kwa nadharia ya uwanja katika fizikia ambayo inaona vikundi kama ""viwanja vya sumaku vya binadamu"" ambapo watu huchukuliwa katika majukumu tofauti kulingana na muktadha wao." Sehemu ya Pamoja: Hii inaelezea nafasi ya dhana ambapo watu wa Taifa la Kwanza na Waustralia wengine wanafanya kazi pamoja, kuwasiliana na kuingiliana. Sociology: utafiti wa maendeleo, utendaji na muundo wa jamii ya binadamu. Mabadiliko ya mfumo: mabadiliko ya msingi katika hali ya sera, michakato, mahusiano, nguvu, maadili, kanuni na mawazo ambayo husababisha kuibuka kwa mazoea mapya na njia mpya za kufanya mambo. Weather Reporting: kutoa mtazamo wa mfumo mzima wa kile kinachotokea, kama inavyotokea, kwa kusudi la kuleta mtazamo mkubwa kwa mfumo. "Jina hili mara nyingi hutumiwa kuelezea watu wasio wa asili wa Australia kama ""kinyume cha weusi"" katika kurejelea watu wa Taifa la Kwanza." Nyakati nyingine linatumiwa kujumuisha watu kutoka tamaduni nyingine pia. Worldview: mtazamo maalum, paradigm, falsafa ya maisha au njia ya kuangalia dunia.
