Beneficial Actualisation and Quiet-Everyday Leadership: Activating the Doughnut at a local and personal-level.
Dear DEAL members,
Beneficial Actualisation can be viewed as a theory, model and framework with details @ https://www.thecoast.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/Benefical-Actualisation-Theory-Explained-2022-v5.pdf
For this DEAL section we set out a series of questions in hope of prompting further activity and connectedness within the group and to help me explore and use two new concepts of wellbeing science, Beneficial Actualisation and Quiet-Everyday Leadership to activate the Doughnut at a local or personal-level.
Here’s the first question:
What process, strategy or tipping point do we need to activate the Doughnut at a local-level or even at a personal-level?
If we use a paradigm or potential goal of Regen Melbourne (Melbourne Doughnut), say: A safe and just space for humanity where our regenerative and distributive wellbeing economy enables a network of communities and natural systems to thrive, or the safe and just spaces for all (self, others and nature) to thrive or similar, then what is / are the collective action, the safe and just seeds (the smallest of daily things) that we could co-create that would generate a systems-wide ripple effect for positive change?
Emerging concepts framed around Wellbeing and vitality for all that we have been exploring with UN Youth and the WHO Health and Wellbeing Hub, could be an interesting or alternate starting point to uncover a systems’ leverage point that considers the six conditions of systems change concurrently.
The concepts we are exploring are about the alignment of our Being, Doing and Knowing, Beneficial Actualisation and its possible enabler Quiet-Everyday Leadership.
Quiet-Everyday Leadership is the smallest of daily things: our thoughts, our actions and our language about and for wellbeing and vitality for all. (Note: adapted from Julian Stood’s Quiet Leadership and Benefit Mindset’s Everyday Leadership)
If we then apply Quiet-Everyday Leadership to the paradigm or potential goal of our local Doughnut “the safe and just spaces for all to thrive” then what are:
The smallest of your daily thoughts for the safe and just spaces for all to thrive? (insert answer)
The smallest of your daily actions for the safe and just spaces for all to thrive? (insert answer)
The smallest of your daily language for the safe and just spaces for all to thrive? (insert answer)
As always, your feedback, comments and contributions are warmly welcomed.

Hi everyone! I am a french-english multidisciplinary creative director and strategist based in Amsterdam. I am experienced in design, strategic and systems thinking, relationship and project management, and coaching. I come from a creative background, but after 15 years of evolving in the "creative field", I have decided to move closer towards facilitating the development and adaptation to circular and regenerative business cultures, practices, and value creation. I have recently gone back to studying a full time MBA focused on CE / Regeneration and Purposeful Leadership and am working on a project around weaving ethics of care into business purposes and practices as a step into systematically building and nurturing regenerative value. I am currently developing a workshop based on Appreciative Inquiry to help business re-assess values / strategy based on Care and would love to share in this community any ideas towards shaping a more regenerative and distributive future for all.
