Manifesto

  • There is a fascinating emerging body of knowledge in the field of adult development.
  • Notably, the insights around cognitive development are not fully accessible yet.
  • How would our world look if we applied these evolving insights to the fields of businesses, education, politics etc?
  • CAD, the Center of Applied of Dialectics, opens up a platform for practitioners in the field of adult development, integrating research into their practice, exchanging findings and thereby nourishing each other, empowering others to do likewise.

Next meetings - we call them "Jams" like in Jazz: Dialectical Dialogue, with deepening facilitation:

  • 17th April 2023, 7pm CET: Do ChatGPT et al ring the bell of Human Dialectical Thinking?; zoom, calendar entry
