This slideshow explores what type of leadership we need in organisations in the 21st Century. It will look at how pioneering leaders have found ways of disabling the control mechanisms within their organisations to unleash the potential of the people, for the good of all. "When the leader is a bad leader, the people hate him. When the leader is a good leader, the people love him. When the leader is a great leader, the people say 'We did it ourselves". Tao te Ching. It has been prepared by Patrick Andrews. Patrick is a business adviser and activist, with a legal background, working at the intersection of business, law and sustainability in search of the new models for organising in the 21st Century. He spent more than 15 years as a corporate lawyer and project manager, working in the UK and overseas for large corporations. For the last 10 years ago he has been exploring how we can encourage more healthy, responsible and sustainable approaches to business, working with businesses and charities and social enterprises of all kinds. He is also a director of Working in Trust, a charity that promotes a hybrid type of business structure designed to encourage more responsibility, compassion and dynamism in business. In these turbulent times, we need some leadership in our organisations. Despite the proliferation of books and courses on leadership, in most organisations it is conformity that is the norm, not leadership. Leadership is about being true to yourself, having the courage of your convictions. It comes from a place of love and trust, a belief in the fundamental rightness of the universe that gives you the confidence to be who you are, not who you think you should be. And it is not the exclusive domain of those at the top of some organisational chart – the CEO, the Prime Minister, the headmistress. Anyone can be a leader. Organisations are very good at suppressing leadership, at all levels. Those in authority feel the need to control what is going on, and so they establish control mechanisms and procedures. As Margaret Wheatley pointed out, " We never effectively control people with these systems, but we certainly stop a lot of good work from getting done.”

ACEL Presentation 2012 - Leading others for learning
The document discusses leading online learning and ICT integration at St John's Anglican College. It provides context on the school's digital environment including ubiquitous devices and access. The goals are to enhance teacher ability to utilize existing e-learning systems to improve student outcomes. Findings indicate that extracting full learning value from technology requires alignment of content, learning principles, teaching, and assessment. Research also suggests hyperconnectivity impacts personal and organizational behavior, and 1-to-1 laptop programs can be effective.
Self leadership
Self leadership involves having a clear vision and goals, self-discipline, responsibility for one's actions, self-knowledge, integrity, courage in the face of challenges, being a role model for others, and empowering others. The document profiles several Latin American leaders who exemplify qualities of self leadership, such as Rafael Nadal, Bosco Gutierrez Cortina, Irene Villa, Jaume Sanllorente, Nando Parrado and Roberto Canessa, Pope Francis, and Toni Nadal. It concludes that the most important person to lead is oneself.
Self Leadership
Want to know what it takes to be a strong leader? Start by effectively leading yourself. Learn the importance of self-leadership and the power you have within yourself. Learn how leading yourself builds confidence and how your new found confidence makes others notice you and how effective you are in your own life. Being an effective leader to yourself begins to prepare you in leading others. After all, if you can’t lead yourself, how can you lead others?
The 4 pillars of Self-Leadership
The 4 Pillars are the core areas that a person should focus on to support their personal development. The cover Self-Development, combined with Soft Skills and Hard Skills.
How Do You Lead?
In the best organizations, everyone, regardless of title or position, is encouraged to act like a leader. How do you lead?
3 steps to leading others
To lead others effectively, one should (1) find out each individual's trigger for superior performance, such as their motivator or purpose, (2) know what would help them take more ownership and accountability for their work, and (3) identify each person's unique strengths, or "God's gift," that can be nurtured to get the best from them and create joy at work. By discovering these three inputs for each person, one can better lead and help individuals improve themselves in their work.

Using Social Media
These are the slides about how Councillors and Officers of local authorities could use social media to connect and engage and were used in a Webinar on Social Media.
The Psychology of Brexit, Trump & The Alt Right
Brexit, the election of President Trump and the rise of so-called populism and the ‘alt-right’ has been a shock to the prevailing groupthink that has dominated politics for decades. In this webinar, Dr Nicholas Beecroft will explain the psychology of this seismic political change with reference to value systems, emotional wounds and the many new forms of bigotry, which are limiting our ability to adapt to current life conditions.
Asset Based Community Development & Tackling Loneliness
A presentation by Shaun Brunett on how Asset Based Community Development can be used to build social capital to tackle loneliness in society.
Black Country Click Start Programme

Seminar slides october 2013
This document discusses community engagement in the current climate. It provides examples of different approaches to community engagement from local authorities in England and Scotland. It compares resident-led and council-led partnerships, examining their advantages and disadvantages. It also discusses the roles of councillors in developing new relationships with communities and engaging communities through social media.
Social Media & Engagement
The document discusses various strategies for social media engagement, including the importance of collaboration both online and offline. It emphasizes that engagement requires finding new audiences, using innovative approaches, and fostering dialogue. A variety of social media tools and platforms are presented for community engagement activities like webinars, video diaries, crowd-sourcing, and internet television. Collaboration through cross-boundary networks and international knowledge sharing is also stressed.
Modern Media - Society Watchdogs or Poodles to Power?
Questions of failed public accountability and governance lie at the heart of serial crises facing today's societies. Rolling economic breakdowns, rising inequality and looming environmental disasters all highlight the gulf between popular will and politicians' responses. Our media seem blind to this mismatch, unable to link the many problems to their common cause in the loss of people's influence over government.
Patrick Chalmers, an ex-Reuters reporter and author of Fraudcast News, lays out the charges against his chosen profession. He presents an insider's account of how mainstream media are far from being the watchdogs of power they like to pretend. Quite the opposite – the bulk of their output blinds people to their powerlessness in the face of modern politics, at every layer of government.
Yet his is a hopeful story. It includes a plan for how people can make their own media and lay claim to their political voices.
Patrick Chalmers is a journalist and author of Fraudcast News — How Bad Journalism Supports Our Bogus Democracies. You can listen to him talking about Fraudcast News in a “pop-up” interview from last year’s Rebellious Media Conference.

In this Presentation Senake Atureliya will lead us in a discussion to find out how we can regain control of our civic lives and recreate a cohesive society, put a cap on spiraling prices, tackle dwindling pay and pensions, save the 'lost generation', improve the outlook for our children and give them back their childhoods.
An ambitious aim but Senake argues that through “Food, warmth, shelter...collectively, as consumers, we are empowered. Senake’s book COMPOPOLY describes a "consumer owned and empowered democratic ecosystem" that could work for all of us - every day - rather than just serving the 1% on polling day.
Senake Atureliya is a forward thinking innovator, engineer and startup entrepreneur. He set up Joint Venture Hubs (www.jointventurehubs.com), an innovative crowd ReSourcing solution that enables collaborative innovation, enterprise and job creation. His new book, Compopoly takes this quest further by suggesting well aligned reforms to tackle the root causes - not just the symptomatic problems manifested in our society today.
Older Social Enterpreneurs
In this Presntation we look at social enterprise as one means of providing both business and social value opportunities to groups and segments of the population that are either often overlooked or in some way marginalized.
This presentation looks at how social entrepreneurship could provide a form of transition or an alternative to retirement, providing an alternative or ‘middle way’ between ‘mainstream’ entrepreneurship and voluntary work. At the same time, older people’s involvement in social entrepreneurial activity could make a contribution to tackling issues of an ageing society, such as social exclusion
This presentation is based on a study that aimed at examining these trends in more depth and also explored what older people gain through their social entrepreneurial activities.
Bianca Stumbitz from Middlesex University will present this Webinar and place it in the perspective of not only the social enterprise movement itself but also other initiatives relating to employment, social value and overall policy on equality.
You can find out more about what Bianca's presentation on our CitizenZone Blog. You can view it here now.
Bianca Stumbitz has been involved in research on social entrepreneurship since 2008. Her project on 50+ Social Entrepreneurs is part of the Social Enterprise Capacity Building Cluster at the Centre for Enterprise and Economic Development Research(CEEDR) at Middlesex University Business School.
Social Enterprise: An Engine For Social Change? The Migrant Community
This presentation discusses the role of social enterprise in working with migrant groups either as a way of supporting them directly or as a way of establishing business opportunities and self-help.
It was taken from a presentation by Alessio D’Angelo from Middlesex University who comments on this and place it in the perspective of not only the social enterprise movement itself but also other initiatives relating to employment, social value and overall policy on equality.
Alessio D’Angelo is a Lecturer in Social Sciences at Middlesex University. He has been working for several years as a freelance researcher and consultant for various Third Sector organisations and in 2009 was appointed Business and Community Interaction (BCI) ‘Champion’ for the Department of Social Sciences (Middlesex University), promoting and coordinating a number of activities in partnership with private and Third Sector organisations, including events, evaluations, consultancies, knowledge transfer and capacity building. He is a member of the Social Policy Research Centre (SPRC) and the TSRC Social Enterprise Research Capacity Building Cluster.
Religion and Politics: Perception & Belief
By looking at the relation between beliefs and politics we can begin to see how religious beliefs often take on a political nature – sometimes violent and sometimes peaceful. We can also begin to see how often these beliefs develop because of a vacuum in the secular world.
As a way of illustrating this Dr Alexandre Christoyannopoulos explored with us “Christian Anarchism” because it highlights many of these points.
Talk of religion and politics tends to conjure up images and memories of religious intolerance and political violence, especially if the word 'radical' is added in. Yet many religious radicals are non-violent.
Gandhi, for instance, was a strictly non-violent religious and political radical. What few people know is that his inspiration for this strict non-violence was Christian anarchist Leo Tolstoy.
These slides are associated with a webinar where we discussede nonviolent religious radicalism using Tolstoy and others Christian anarchists as a starting point in order to reflect more broadly on the interaction of religion and politics, on where that leaves the intentions of secularism, and on why nonviolent activism tends to be eclipsed by violent alternatives.
Leading Self & Personal Capacities
This slideshow focuses on personal capacities required for leading in a fast changing environment. It is being presented by Christopher Baan.
Today’s complex sustainability challenges call for a new generation of leaders and a new paradigm of leadership. Sustainability leaders and change agents need to steer their way through complex change processes in an environment that is characterised by high stakes and high uncertainty. Increasingly, leaders need to be able to facilitate participatory processes and engage a wide variety of stakeholders.
In most cases, the sustainability challenge requires engaging people in profound change, an inner shift in people’s values, aspirations and behaviours guided by their mental models, as well as an outer shift in processes, strategies and practices. Sustainability and CSR managers, change agents and facilitators need to be adept at engaging individuals and groups in a collaborative and dialogical manner, unearthing the group’s collective intelligence and assisting employees to gain a whole system perspective. Facilitating this type of transformation depends first on the authentic leadership of the facilitator.
Podcasting workshop
In March 201, GlobalNet21 ran a workshop with the Migrants Resource Centre on Podcasting to encourage them to use podcasting as a tool of citizen journalism
Podcast workshop
This document provides an overview of a podcast workshop conducted by GlobalNet21. The workshop aimed to introduce participants to podcasting and how to develop and distribute a podcast. It covered what is needed to produce a podcast, including audio recorders, editors, podcast hosts, and distribution networks. Participants learned how to record, edit, and upload their podcasts. They also explored using pictures and slideshows in podcasts. The workshop demonstrated how to distribute podcasts through existing social networks and platforms like SlideShare, Audioboo, and podcast directories. The goal was to give participants hands-on experience with developing their own podcasts to share stories and information.
Transforming education
This document discusses transforming education through curriculum and achievement. It describes a House of Commons meeting hosted by Stephen Twigg MP, the Shadow Education Secretary, in March 2010. The meeting featured Maggie Atkinson, the children's commissioner for England, and Prof Geoff Whitty discussing curriculum and achievement.
Introduction to Authentic Leadership
Leadership is a journey without final destination and with few reliable maps. To honestly face today’s challenges we need to be creative, resilient, resourceful, and courageous. Leaders need tools for working in complex, shifting environments. In times of unstable resources, they need to invite and empower everyone’s leadership, including their own.
So how do we do this. Authentic leadership in the ALIA context focuses on three aspects,
Mindfulness and authenticity to cultivate our own capacity to be genuine and courageous and to lead
Tools for working with uncertainty and transforming situations we find ourselves in
How to give space for others to develop and to empower them.
These topics are explored in this Presentation

Mutation Testing for Task-Oriented Chatbots
Conversational agents, or chatbots, are increasingly used to access all sorts of services using natural language. While open-domain chatbots - like ChatGPT - can converse on any topic, task-oriented chatbots - the focus of this paper - are designed for specific tasks, like booking a flight, obtaining customer support, or setting an appointment. Like any other software, task-oriented chatbots need to be properly tested, usually by defining and executing test scenarios (i.e., sequences of user-chatbot interactions). However, there is currently a lack of methods to quantify the completeness and strength of such test scenarios, which can lead to low-quality tests, and hence to buggy chatbots.
To fill this gap, we propose adapting mutation testing (MuT) for task-oriented chatbots. To this end, we introduce a set of mutation operators that emulate faults in chatbot designs, an architecture that enables MuT on chatbots built using heterogeneous technologies, and a practical realisation as an Eclipse plugin. Moreover, we evaluate the applicability, effectiveness and efficiency of our approach on open-source chatbots, with promising results.

GNSS spoofing via SDR (Criptored Talks 2024)
In the realm of cybersecurity, offensive security practices act as a critical shield. By simulating real-world attacks in a controlled environment, these techniques expose vulnerabilities before malicious actors can exploit them. This proactive approach allows manufacturers to identify and fix weaknesses, significantly enhancing system security.
This presentation delves into the development of a system designed to mimic Galileo's Open Service signal using software-defined radio (SDR) technology. We'll begin with a foundational overview of both Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) and the intricacies of digital signal processing.
The presentation culminates in a live demonstration. We'll showcase the manipulation of Galileo's Open Service pilot signal, simulating an attack on various software and hardware systems. This practical demonstration serves to highlight the potential consequences of unaddressed vulnerabilities, emphasizing the importance of offensive security practices in safeguarding critical infrastructure.

zkStudyClub - LatticeFold: A Lattice-based Folding Scheme and its Application...
Folding is a recent technique for building efficient recursive SNARKs. Several elegant folding protocols have been proposed, such as Nova, Supernova, Hypernova, Protostar, and others. However, all of them rely on an additively homomorphic commitment scheme based on discrete log, and are therefore not post-quantum secure. In this work we present LatticeFold, the first lattice-based folding protocol based on the Module SIS problem. This folding protocol naturally leads to an efficient recursive lattice-based SNARK and an efficient PCD scheme. LatticeFold supports folding low-degree relations, such as R1CS, as well as high-degree relations, such as CCS. The key challenge is to construct a secure folding protocol that works with the Ajtai commitment scheme. The difficulty, is ensuring that extracted witnesses are low norm through many rounds of folding. We present a novel technique using the sumcheck protocol to ensure that extracted witnesses are always low norm no matter how many rounds of folding are used. Our evaluation of the final proof system suggests that it is as performant as Hypernova, while providing post-quantum security.

5th LF Energy Power Grid Model Meet-up Slides
5th Power Grid Model Meet-up
It is with great pleasure that we extend to you an invitation to the 5th Power Grid Model Meet-up, scheduled for 6th June 2024. This event will adopt a hybrid format, allowing participants to join us either through an online Mircosoft Teams session or in person at TU/e located at Den Dolech 2, Eindhoven, Netherlands. The meet-up will be hosted by Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e), a research university specializing in engineering science & technology.
Power Grid Model
The global energy transition is placing new and unprecedented demands on Distribution System Operators (DSOs). Alongside upgrades to grid capacity, processes such as digitization, capacity optimization, and congestion management are becoming vital for delivering reliable services.
Power Grid Model is an open source project from Linux Foundation Energy and provides a calculation engine that is increasingly essential for DSOs. It offers a standards-based foundation enabling real-time power systems analysis, simulations of electrical power grids, and sophisticated what-if analysis. In addition, it enables in-depth studies and analysis of the electrical power grid’s behavior and performance. This comprehensive model incorporates essential factors such as power generation capacity, electrical losses, voltage levels, power flows, and system stability.
Power Grid Model is currently being applied in a wide variety of use cases, including grid planning, expansion, reliability, and congestion studies. It can also help in analyzing the impact of renewable energy integration, assessing the effects of disturbances or faults, and developing strategies for grid control and optimization.
What to expect
For the upcoming meetup we are organizing, we have an exciting lineup of activities planned:
-Insightful presentations covering two practical applications of the Power Grid Model.
-An update on the latest advancements in Power Grid -Model technology during the first and second quarters of 2024.
-An interactive brainstorming session to discuss and propose new feature requests.
-An opportunity to connect with fellow Power Grid Model enthusiasts and users.

Editor's Notes
- Quadrant based on Ken Wilber. The top half equals individual, the bottom half group. This can be a helpful way of looking at an organisation – you ensure you are looking at the whole picture.
- Bohm made valuable contributions to theoretical physics. But also something of an activist. He noted that quantum theory and relativity both pointed to wholeness.
