A Systems Thinking World LinkedIn group question asked in January 2011.

Changing the world: what can we do at the grassroots level?

Link to the discussion: http://lnkd.in/yxnAXu

We are several in this group to advocate that each of us individuals can influence at our own level the emergence of change in our environments. Please share ideas and experiences.

What “movements” are already out there?

Here are some examples of "empowering" organizations, initiatives or manifestos from various backgrounds attempting to create grassroots movements for change. Some are based on Systems thinking principles:

* Social movement thinking applied to organizations such as developed by UK NHS Institute for innovation and improvement: http://bit.ly/9fMP9N

* Community based tackling of issues, such as Transition Towns in the UK: http://www.transitiontowns.org/

* The Good work project: large scale effort to identify individuals and institutions that exemplify good work – work that is excellent in quality, socially responsible, and meaningful to its practitioners – and to determine how best to increase the incidence of good work in our society.http://www.goodworkproject.org/

*The Conscious Capitalism Institute, spreading the perspective and practices of conscious capitalism to entrepreneurs and organizations worldwide and facilitate the creation of more conscious businesses and organizational leaders. http://www.consciouscapitalism.org/

*The Mix: Management Innovation Exchange, open innovation project aimed at reinventing management for the 21st century. http://www.managementexchange.com/

Which other projects do you know of, that we can emulate, diffuse? Let's try and establish an observatory.
