Bob Stilger - The Two Loops

As Co-President of Berkana Institute, Bob was part of the team that developed the Two Loops model as a theory of change for Berkana Institute.

Understanding the lifecycle of living systems and seeing have change happens, how systems are collapsing and new are being born has never been as needed.

This simple and powerful pattern helps us see what we are doing or what role we might play as we are giving shape to a new story and a new system.
