Field supervisor: P.L Calitz, M.A Field supervisor: W.J. Schurink, Phil. 2013 DECLARATION I declare that the research project, HUMAN NICHES – SPIRAL DYNAMICS FOR AFRICA, is my own work and that each source of information used has been acknowledged by means of a complete reference. This thesis has not been submitted towards another research project, degree or examination at any university. _______________________________ (Signature of Student) __________ (Date) Johannesburg, South Africa 2 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I thank my daughters, Isabelle Laubscher and Ann Vorster for their patience with a mother who always had her nose in a book. To my grandchildren Ben, Ty, Sarah-Jane, Luv and Mary-Ann this is part of my life's record for you. It is also for my great-grandchildren, Rebecca, Gabrielle, Reilly and Conner, may you each run a good race. As I look back on my journey I wish to honour the amazing people who were the change agents in my life. Firstly my parents, George and Bella Lewis for the Genes and Memes they unknowingly gave me. To Mrs Mason my first Sunday school teacher and Ms Mary Tainton, my Girl Guide Captain. Miss Audrey Buckle who in the 1940’s was Lady Warden at St. Alban’s Hostel, where I spent 4 amazing years under her guidance and tutelage. I remember and thank Keith van Heerden for taking me beyond the glass ceiling on an equal footing, and taught me Value Engineering and who introduced me to Dr Don Beck –(who was responsible for opening a new door in my mind) thank you Don, you are a gift to me and to South Africa. My thanks to Piet Calitz who took all the pieces that was Loraine and moulded me into a businesswoman. And then came Rica, a student, a guru, a comrade, a supervisor, a masterful teacher, and a friend. Thank you Rica, without you it would not have been done. Thank you also for your patience and the sharing of your knowledge. Please pass on my thanks to the fabulous Ansune Coetzee and Patricia Ndebele for all they contributed, always with a smile. 3 I also wish to thank all the experts I encountered through my journey at da Vinci, and the students in my classes who treated me as one of them and allowed me the freedom to be a student regardless of my chronological age. Thank you to the da Vinci staff, who always greeted me so enthusiastically and provided copies of everything I needed. This list would not be complete without a special vote of thanks to Professor Bennie Anderson, who judged that I was worthy to be a PhD candidate. I hope I am a credit to your judgment. Thanks also for the advice and concern Professor Willem Schurink showed to me. You gave me the confidence to proceed. To my Editor who also honed my computer and electronic skills my most grateful thanks. I dedicate this part of the thesis to the people who permanently influenced my being. Remembering those influences and stories enriched me yet again, and will continue doing so until the end of my days. 4 TABLE OF CONTENTS DECLARATION

  • 21 Icons Season Ii South Africa
    21 ICONS SEASON II SOUTH AFRICA MEDIA RELEASE Embargoed until 31 August 2014 at 12h00 (SA) Johannesburg –31 August 2014 - Francois Pienaar: “The power of sport is incredible. It cuts across all colours, all religions, all creeds, all people; it’s got an amazing effect on people.” On 31 August 2014 at 20h27 on SABC 3, 21 ICONS provides a glimpse into the mind of Francois Pienaar, the former Springbok rugby captain who led South Africa to glory in the 1995 Rugby World Cup. Now in its second season, 21 ICONS shines a spotlight on the country’s most outstanding citizens and masters of society. From renowned leaders to entrepreneurs, from struggle stalwarts to sporting heroes, their determination, humanity and dedication typify what makes this country great. Adrian Steirn, one of the preeminent photographers and filmmakers in South Africa, has captured their spirits in a series that is as intimate as it is compelling. Steirn comments, “I’ve met many people whose stories are incredibly powerful – it’s a true privilege to discover more about the human spirit and share these individuals personal accounts, their positive character traits and their propensity to influence and shape perceptions and transform societal norms for the better, impacting the communities around them.” Each short film is accompanied by a striking black and white portrait of the participants in the series, which appears in a Sunday paper on the same day that the film is flighted. These portraits will be made available for sale at an auction later this year, with all proceeds going to charity.

  • Ken Wilber's Integral Psychology
    Ken Wilber’s Integral Vision: A Review Of Applications In Education Toward A “Wisdom Culture” -R. Michael Fisher1 ©2003 ABSTRACT For over 30 years, contemporary American integral philosopher, Ken Wilber, has challenged all of us to critically examine how biased, if not distorted, our current forms of thinking and knowledge are, and what kind of education ought to be developed in order to build, what he refers to as, a future “Wisdom Culture.” To date, no critical synthesis of Wilber’s work and its relationship to the field of Education has been attempted. This paper offers three real classroom vignettes demonstrating the application of Wilber’s integral approach, set within an opening fictional narrative. The remainder of the paper synthesizes an extensive search of Educational documents, and provides a critical review of 16 professional educators, from both schooling and adult education, who have published writing on applications and potential of Wilber’s philosophy, toward laying the groundwork for future educational engagement with the integral approach.. INTRODUCTION: IF ONLY... I had a dream. Thousands of diverse adults from nations around the world were gathering for a common cause in Geneva. The loudspeakers were blaring throughout the lecture hall, where everyone sat politely and attentive. A small brown-skinned figure, a “Director-General,” someone said, stood at the podium speaking: As the world’s problems grow in complexity, from genocides to ecosides and growing world poverty, from the HIV/AIDS epidemic to a life polluted by fear in a post-9/11 “War on Terrorism,” our United Nations are facing a very challenging 21st century.

  • How Mandela Inspired Pienaar and Springboks to Conquer the World We Talked About All Things and Not Just the World Cup
    18 Established 1961 Sports Tuesday, June 23, 2020 Photo of the day Hamilton marches in anti-racism protest LONDON: Formula One world champion Lewis Hamilton marched in the latest anti-racism protest in London on Sunday, describing the experience as “really moving”. The 35-year-old Hamilton, the only black driver in F1, joined the protests which have become com- mon since the death of George Floyd in the United States last month. “Went down to Hyde Park today for the peace- ful protest and I was so proud to see in person so many people of all races and backgrounds sup- porting this movement,” Hamilton wrote on Instagram. “I was proud to be out there acknowl- edging and supporting the Black Lives Matter movement, and my black heritage. “I was also happy to see so many white sup- porters out there in the name of equality for all. It was really moving. I’m feeling extremely positive that change will come, but we cannot stop now. Keep pushing.” Hamilton also posted a photograph of himself holding up a Black Lives Matter sign while his T-shirt slogan said: ‘Black is a vibe’. The six-time world champion also wore a yel- low scarf around his face. Earlier, Hamilton had penned an article for Britain’s Sunday Times newspaper in which he said he was launching his own diversity body to attract more black youngsters into motor racing, insisting the “time for token gestures is over”. Hamilton, a powerful and influential voice, said he was teaming up with Britain’s Royal Academy of Engineering to launch The Hamilton Commission.

  • An Approach to Integral Psychology
    AN APPROACH TO INTEGRAL PSYCHOLOGY Ken Wilber Boulder, Colorado THE WAVES OF One of the striking things about the present state of developmental studies is how similar, in broad outline, most of its models are. Indeed. in (Wilber, in press-b). I assembled the conclusions of more than 100 researchers and. as one of them summarized the si tuation. stage sequences [of all of these the­ orists] can be aligned across a common developmental space. The harmony of align­ ment shown suggests a possible reconciliation of lthese1theories,"1 From Clare Graves to Abraham Maslow: from Deirdre Kramer to Jan Sinnott: from Jiirgen Habermas to Cheryl Armon: from Kurt Fischer to Jenny Wade: from Robert Kegan to Susanne Cook-Greuter. there emerges a remarkably consistent story of the evolution of consciousness. Of course. there are dozens of disagreements and hun­ dreds of conflicting details. But they all tell a generally similar tale of the growth and development of consciousness from. to use Jean particular version. archaic to magic to mythic to rational to integral. Most of the more sophisticated of these cartographies give around six to ten waves of development from birth to what I call the centaur level. (Beyond the centaur, into the more transpersonal waves of consciousness unfolding. agreement tapers off. I will return to this point later.) Few of these developmental schemes are the rigid, linear. clunk-and-grind models portrayed by their critics. Development is a not a linear ladder but a f1uid and flow­ ing atIair, with spirals, swirls. streams. and waves. and what appears to be an almost infinite number of multiple modalities.

Power and Love: A Theory and Practice of Social Change. San Francisco: Berrett-Koehler, 2010. SIX GAMES TO GLORY: A Winning Strategy for the l995 South African Springbok Team. Prepared for Coach Kitch Christie by Dr. Don Beck Hot off the presses! An impressive new book by consultant Adam Kahane on the relationship between power and love in change processes! This is an important topic for a number of reasons. First of all, I have experienced in myself and in the language and practices of other consultants (particularly organization development) and coaches a propensity to go for the love and avoid the power issues. Kahane’s treatment of this subject is an important one and I will share more about that shortly. First, however, let’s take a bit of a side trip—a highly relevant side trip. Kahane left Shell Oil after doing a project with them in South Africa. He was contacted by someone in South Africa, a contact that resulted in his facilitation of the Mont Fleur Scenario Exercise. Scenario development processes are invaluable for integral leadership development from my point of view (leadership being an integral concept involving individuals, cultures and systems). While there seemed to be some positive benefits from Mont Fleur, it seemed to me (as I was reading Kahane) that the focus was more on shifting political postures and ideology by working with leaders around the implications of alternative approaches to the end of apartheid and the aftermath.

  • Participatory Samsara—The Green-Meme Approach to the Mystery of The
    Sidebar F: Participatory Samsara—The Green-Meme Approach to the Mystery of the Divine Joan Hazelton looked up and smiled. “Boomeritis spirituality has a long shadow, touching everything from the New Age to New Paradigms, from transpersonal psychology to born-on-earth spirituality, from boomeritis Buddhism to altered states, from radical spirituality to divine egoism. A little bit later we will examine the actual contours of boomeritis spirituality in detail [see Sidebar H]. For the moment, we can look briefly at its academic flavor.” “Ken, I was wondering. If a postmodern novel had endnotes, and….” “Why on earth would a novel have endnotes?” “I don’t know. Confused author, can’t shut up, has to weigh in on everything. Let me finish. If a postmodern novel had endnotes, and in the novel the characters were two- dimensional, doesn’t that mean that in the endnotes they would only be one-dimensional?” “I guess so, I dunno. All I know is that I feel like I’m evaporating, sort of wasting away, going pale and anemic, and… Kim…? Kim?….” “Look, it would be like this. Three-dimensional characters would be reduced to two- dimensional characters in any genuinely postmodern novel—flatland characters for flatland postmodernism—and then, I’ll bet, in endnotes, the two-dimensional characters would become one-dimensional, right?” “I guess so.” Copyright © 2007 Ken Wilber.
