ABOUT

RAISON D'ÊTRE

Why we do what we do, and what's in it for you

‘Be plastic!’ is not the same injunction as that to be agile or flexible. Plasticity is a unique capacity because it’s the only one which is simply the capacity to become, is potential realizing itself . ‘The world is an egg’ wrote a famous philosopher. Wrote another: ‘The brain is an embryo’. So we make maps to guide development. Worlds aren’t containers, they are generative processes of plasticity: worlding.

Worlds hold together (they cohere), worlds are composed (they are multiple) and worlds combine (they are complex). At Worlding we create, articulate, develop and conjugate worlds:

• Organisationally: new worlds need wording; we articulate futures, strategies, concepts, behaviours. But words need worlding too: we create experiences out of your strategies and words.
Worlding organizes and brands. 

• Developmentally: potential has to overcome many obstacles to realize itself. We design and develop learning experiences.
Worlding capacities.

• Experimentally: new meaning emerges surreptitiously. We practice embodied immersion to facilitate the emergence of the new ( ‘immergence’).
Worlding experiences. 

 

We do this to keep the world worlding – transforming and developing – and to counter the forces of the status quo.

What’s in it for you? Increasing your own potentials for innovation, freedom and purposeful action.

STRATEGIC VISION

Where we're going, and why you should hitch a ride

We have left the 20th century, dominated as it came to be by the human-as-brain-as-computer, genetic determinism and Taylorism. The 21st century brings with it a new emphasis on socio-cultural context (the epigenetic), new convergences (digitalization) and new technologies of experience (virtual media).

For us, the epoch will be characterized by the ethico-esthetic paradigm of plasticity. In the meantime everyone continues to deploy engineering, scientistic and technologist frameworks in the face of rapid change.

Our goal is to put plasticity on the table of every private and public boardroom, every educational, scientific and policy committee room, as individual capability, organizational principle and societal objective. In an accelerated world there will simply be no innovation (social, political, technological) without it.

Get on board this train if you’re looking to reveal your potential, insight/incite your future and make change happen.

ATTUNEMENT

How we get there, and what we can do together

Attunement is not alignment. It is the composition of different rhythms into a consistent direction. It is the process of getting on the same wavelength and then developing together. Whether with clients, collaborators or partners, we explore processes of immergence to enact change and to empower our interlocutors in their contexts.

Get in touch if you’re looking for a really sensitive ear, a deeply inquisitive tongue and a perspicaciously discerning eye. Determinedly embodied, Worlding can be the compagnon de route who helps you and your organisation feel your way forward in your desire to explore, change and grow.

We work across all sectors and across the public and private spheres. Our historical interlocutors are CEOs and leaders in Marketing, HR, R&D and R&I. We relish challenges that are inter-: international, intercultural, interrelational, interdisciplinary, intersectoral...

STORY

Where we’ve come from, and who we are to you

 

Olwen Wolfe and Nick Millett founded the intercultural agency Worlding in Paris in 1999. Olwen established Worlding as a trusted brand in creativity & innovation consulting and training. Nick went off to experiment in the performing arts and to create NMA which became a trusted consultancy in strategic foresight, innovation and branding.

 

At the age of 21 Worlding began a new chapter: Nick returned to rebrand Worlding and launch it into the new decade as a non-profit. Let's make it clear: your issues come before our benefits.
