Creative Courage and Entrepreneurship: The Beauty of Mistakes and the Power of Action
Releasing Creativity, Embracing Identity, and Awakening the Courage to Be Seen — as Entrepreneurs, in Organisations, as Consultants, Coaches, and Beyond.
Within every business, organisation, and personal vision lies a creative force — often dormant, often suppressed.
This course is an invitation to step into a systemic field, where identity, failure, action, and collaboration are not seen as linear strategies, but as living dynamics.
We invite entrepreneurs, coaches, consultants, leaders, creatives, and changemakers to explore the systemic questions that shape not only organisational culture but also individual direction and collaboration.
Through systemic work, constellations, experiential inquiries, and real case explorations, we will illuminate what blocks vitality, what supports emergence, and how to restore the courage to act, to create, and to be seen.
What will we explore during the training?
The Courage to Make Mistakes and to Embrace Identity
The courage to take risks and to fail
Where does the deep fear of making mistakes come from — is it personal, familial, cultural, or historical?
How do systemic loyalties shape our inner permission to try, fall, rise, and grow?
What kind of environment allows mistakes to become seeds of innovation — in business, in teams, in personal leadership?
Embracing identity — personal and organisational
How do we find our place in a larger system — as founders, coaches, freelancers, or creators?
How can we create space where mistakes transform into seeds of innovation and creativity?
How can we fully embrace our identity, including our strengths, authority, influence, and vulnerability?
The Freedom to Act and the Transformation of Conflict
From colonisation to independent action
Are there invisible structures where we unconsciously remain “occupied” — by the past, by external authorities, or inherited limitations?
How can we move from obedience to originality — as individuals, organisations, and nations?
Releasing suppressed energy into creative flow
When do we hesitate — and to whom are we loyal in that hesitation?
How can systemic work support the transition from caution to embodied creative momentum?
Systemic resolution of inner and outer conflict
What are the visible and invisible sources of conflict?
How can a systemic view transform stagnant dynamics into new paths of collaboration and insight?
Competition, Collaboration, and the Courage to Offer
Beyond comparison — toward co-creation
What does healthy competition look like from a systemic perspective?
When does competition nurture growth, and when does it erode trust or energy?
How can competitors become allies in a larger movement of service?
The courage to offer your essence to the world
What unique resources, gifts, and innovations can you — as a creator — offer to the world?
What systemic support is needed to move from local presence to global offering, with clarity and integrity?
Business, geopolitics, and systemic belonging
How does the larger geopolitical field affect the nervous system of a nation, a founder, or a company?
How can entrepreneurs, organisations, and self-employed creators align with the greater forces of our time — not to react, but to respond?
