Hi there! Here is Francis Laleman sending you welcomes (bio, LinkedIn).
Beyond Borders is an idea that emerged during my years as a young traveling academic, a failing monk, and a social worker in Asia. It is purposefully non-formal, while combining elements from the various cultures, communities, and organizations I have studied as a fieldworker, mostly in Asia, but also in Africa, Europe, and the Americas.
I am blessed that so many talented individuals and groups have joined me over the years, warmly and creatively associating their theories and practices with the general ideas that have emerged from this generative space stretching beyond the borders of minds and places.
Beyond Borders communities now include associates and their networks, together with students, workshop participants, systemic & participatory designers, stakeholders in field projects, Agile & Scrum professionals, exformative facilitation & kishotenketsu design practitioners, and in-residence tenants at three different locations in Belgium.
We run two business units: one in Belgium and one in Singapore (here).
Beyond Borders is many things:
→ a fresh, dynamic, systemic, and non-conventional approach to experience design and facilitation.
→ a movement, a community, a new vogue for life and work.
→ a blend of Agile methodologies, Design Thinking, artful creativity, participatory design, art-&-crafts-based community work, and mindful kindfulness.
→ a new gateway to theories of learning.
→ a reinvented praxis for teachers, trainers, facilitators, and educators.
Hire us to help you get a fresh view on how to nurture a learning culture in your organization teaching - and to help you reinvent matters of facilitation, learning, collaboration, and community engagement.
