Editorial -Welcome to our first edition!

This online publication will bring 21st century science and education through the G4 network. G4 also offers insights from our work to inspire all Living labs including public, private and those of the UN. We invite all Living labs to come and participate to our G4 Living Lab meetings. Your insights are our insights we need to synergize and co -create emergence. Our role is to accelerate the global goals, to make the Greater Geneva a Lighthouse region that allows us to reach the Global Goals before 2030.

We are about accelerating success to become regen-erative for people, planet, profit, prosperity and part-nership, co- creating and aligning all societal partners including business, academia, banks and investors. Re positioning Switzerland to create a brighter future.

social-IN 3 , is happy and proud to host G4 as a flag project. G4 is indeed aligned with our status, as it is about innovation and incubation in both social and societal matters. social-IN 3 , is a cooperative of research based in Geneva, under the Swiss law andwas founded by experts convinced by the new challenge of the Information Age in the 21st century, which will impact and transform our whole Society. Change is happening now, right under our eyes, check and dive deep into the 17 Sustainable

Development Goals!

We are involved into that change as actors and subjects. Our group informally dealt with those questions for 15 years with the support of academic structures, were explored and were published.

In 2012 we became conscious of the obvious need to adopt a corporate structure to reinforce and illustrate our work, with the addition of a charter. We agreed to form this Swiss private company, as a think tank linking us to the highest level of Technology, Sciences and Social Societies in the Information and Anthropocene Age. We share our beliefs with other international stra-tegic foresight actors and partners ... including G4.

Our next societal operational action will be working with all Living Labs, to produce by September 2017 for the second anniversary of SDGs. A Greater Geneva context based roadmap 2030. We plan to organise 3 living labs May, June and September to hand over toFondation pour Genève and UN SDG Lab.

G4 proposes to coordinate Living Labs as a Lab of Labs.

A. Trois projets transformateurs, transversaux, sociétaux, intégrateurs de toutes les parties prenantes, tels que proposés par le Global Goal 17, qui permettent de contribuer positivement à plusieurs SDGs (Sustainable Development Goals) en même temps:

1. L ‘adoption et mise en oeuvre d’un outil intégrateur, stratégique et opérationnel, systémique afin de diminuer de 40% les coûts de gestion ( McKinsey pour approche systémique vs silo ) du Canton et de la ville de Genève, tout au long des transformations SDGs et Roadmap 2030: Resilience.io de TEST - Fondateur et CEO Peter Head, www.ecosequestrationtrust.org

2. la mise en oeuvre de l’autonomie énergétique renouvelable des villes à Genève, via le projet de l’EPFL, prof. François Maréchal. Ce projet Genève est un pilote pour l’Europe, ce qui renforce l’aura pionnière et internationale de notre canton.

Premiers prototypages de réseaux énergétique visant à l’indépendance sont en cours. lien vers le groupe http://ipese.epfl.ch/ ; lien vers le projet video

3. une opportunité en matière de collaboration de Living Labs avec le siège européen de l’ONU à Genève émerge, avec le projet de construction d’un bâtiment supplémentaire pour UNOG.

Cela pourrait être une occasion nouvelle de fédérer différents Living Labs - UN SDG Lab, Genève Lab , SIG Lab, UNIGE Lab, G4 Living Lab, BFU Lab Go for Impact, ICES foundation, CERN Lab, Pan-gloss labs… avec des projets en complémentarité comme Education 21 - International Baccalaure-at, Burning2learn, etc...

Co creators at Bern UN Global Compact network Switzerland,

context, strategy & actionWhy – we start to recognize the obsolescence of multiple societal value propositions. We are at the end of various life cycles in social, environmental, economic and financial realms, at least since 2008. People: 80 % are emotionally and intellectually disen-gaged in their work place – public and private sector; Planet: we globally consume an equivalent of 1.6 renewable planetary resources, when planetary bound-aries are at 1. In Switzerland we are currently using 3.3; only Geneva voted (Green Economy Initiative) to reduce to 1 by 2030;

Profits: an economy cannot be growing indefinitely in a finite world, nor can profits; economy is a pseudosci-ence; since October 2016, the IMF recognizes that an economy based on indebting governments, businesses and families/individuals is not and cannot be a viable and sustainable model; In a multi-capitalistic accounting system that includes societal & social responsibilities, a corporation could not simply reduce costs by laying people off – it is just pushing the problem over to the public sector. This generates a downward vicious spiral, both social and economically. It is simply ecosystemically incoherent and societally a zero sum game. It cannot generate social, environmental, economic peace and health !

Who ? Peace only 17 countries are without wars / armed conflicts: BE, CND, CH, S, N, D, ISL…; social conflicts come from a lack of ecosystemic, integral thinking and true materiality considerations. Reporting 3.0 and other multicapitalistic accounting systems need to change that. The Geneva financial and banking ecosystem, all major business and economic interna-tional organisations, incl. WEF, WBCSD, IISD, etc… UN Global Compact, UNOG SDG Lab, EPFL, Ecole Inter-nationale, as well as the bridge with the local Geneva, the Fondation pour Genève, and then the local public and private sector architecture of Living Labs and the G4 local Lab of Labs, are natural driving forces to em-brace a common transformational movement, togeth-er with Switzerland.Partnerships current public-private “silos & ego” cultures need to evolve into an ecosystemic participa-tive, inclusive and federal dynamics principles based system, with the neutral independent civil society; the global goal no17 re-empowers civil society , initiators, innovators and early adopters to insure mobilizing

Prosperity – the financial “trickle down effect” rate into the real economy varies between 20-7 % over past 30 years; it creates bigger divides and inequity everywhere; whether we have a bottom approach or a top down – we actually need both – from a true soci-etal 21st c governance perspective, to ensure optimi-sation and equity. What - education 21 at all ages - continuous learn-ing and improvement via human centric, epigenetics, neurosciences, neurocognitivism, integrating actu-alized 21st c. sciences - sciences21, wisdom from all great traditions, knowledge of all first nations, and the more and more affordable – getting closer to zero marginal costs - and available – Fab Labs - 21st tech-nologies to ensure local autonomy of drinkable water, healthy bio food and renewable energy - see Stiglitz and Jeremy Rifkin.We can unleash human, organisational and societal potentials by reducing drastically fear and distress factors, increasing human fundamental needs – see Manfred Max Neef – joy, intrinsic motivation, moving into an neurocognitive adaptive mode of functioning – see SEVE, INC, Mindfulness, …

Where – our focus and intention is to make the Greater Geneva city/region a SDG lighthouse, con-nected to other pioneer pilot city/regions on all continents, all connected and acting together as one via the UN SDG lab, at UNOG and other locations. All city regions embracing the ecosystemic multicapital-istic tool Resilience.io seem to be natural candidates, as the equivalent local context based 2030 Roadmap naturally generates the glocal 21st c. governance and asks to address all 16 SDs meta topics.

Do we fully leveragempathy and ecostemic actors

There are very reasons as to why we all go to work, says Richard Bandell CEO Grass Roots Group (GRG). Sure, we could use the money, but it’s more than just that alone.

And if, as leaders, we do not recognize and encourage people to meet their full potential we are doing it wrong.

Most business leaders have all seen - and shivered at - the stats about employee engagement in the UK. For those of us who haven’t, think about how many people are genuinely engaged in the overall vision of your organisation. Richard imaginatively pointed out that if you compared that to the playerson a cricket team, it’s like saying that 3 players are determined to win the game, 4 players aren’t bothered either way and 3 of the team are activelyplaying for the opposition. It is therefore the responsibility of all leaders to actively recognize, understand and promote the personal aspirations of all individuals. Once they are stimulated to fulfilltheir highest potential they will become more synchronized with the organisation’s overall vision.

“How can you get them to have an affinity with your aims if you don’t have one with theirs?”Unlocking our intrinsic motivators

How can a business smoothly transition from a hierarchical business model to an adhocracy? Richard revealed all as he talked us through his findings.

“The first thing we realised was that culture had become very stagnant, it was a hierarchical and clam like organisation.” Richard determined that when there is a hierarchy people are afraid to step outsideof the lines, and that their behaviour is quickly corrected on the occasion that they do. In one example he shared, the reaction of leaders to employees who tried something different was even described as a ’drive-by shooting’! These models are counterproductive as far as employee engagementis concerned. So what do you replace a model like this with? How does an adhocracy add value?When people don’t authentically, genuinely believethat leaders value their aspirations, this causes a huge problem, says Richard. Not just in business, but across all areas within society.

As follows, the organisation’s business model was completely disrupted and a very bold new vision and goal were determined: A vision to inspire peopleto meet their full potential and a goal to hit a huge financial target that was sky high. Both the vision and goal were established to encourage employees to shoot for the stars, even when it seemed beyond the organisation’s, and indeed their own, capabilities.

The new adhocracy model spawned new attitudes, approaches and programmes to really bring the best out of their employees. These included defining behaviours, not values, and introducing a recog-nition system to boost peer-to-peer awareness, support and value. “Instead of defining a strategy we actually asked people to constantly define the strategy and their own productivity targets... We gave people permission to make mistakes and applauded the effort and bravery that went into doing something different.”

GRG also developed a High Potentials Programmedesigned to discover self-selecting workers who had fuller potentials that were previously being under utilized. Open to all, the new programme was quietlyadvertised in order to prevent scaring anybody off. Once people had put themselves forward, they were interviewed and a selection of candidates were then invited to attended an assessment day. This included tests, tasks and psychological profiling to explore their personal drivers in more depth.

Astonishingly, those 20 individuals are now driving some of the most important change within the com-pany. Richard described the HPs as ‘informal leaders in the business’. The HPs are so pleased for the de-velopment opportunity that they are really pushing to meet the company’s new vision and previously ‘unattainable’ goal.

It comes to the high potentials in any business, who have access to altruism, empathy and a holistic understanding, to create cross-disciplinary emergence. Have you identified yours?

High potentials exist in all organisations. It is our task to find them and, in return, they will solve complex problems, drive coherence and transparency.

If HPs from all societal stakeholders can address the Global Goals, they will conceive simple solutions for us all to develop and implement.

Collaboration and co-creation at its finest

GENEVA GLOBAL GOALSINNOVATION DAYG3

Accelerating Innovation for the Global Goals in Geneva and Beyond

The G3iD aims to disrupt the International Geneva to radically accelerate the achievement of the SDGs. Think 2020 rather than 2030. The day acts as a catalyst, showcasing and co-creating disruptive innovations that can be shared and scaled to change the world, fast.

We believe that it's possible to radically accelerate the achievement of the SDGs, but to do this we need your help. There are amazing people all over international Geneva with great experience and expertise, but the SDGs are such a huge challenge, that we need everyone to work together to achieve.

The 2017 edition of G3iD will be a one-day event taking place in the city of Geneva, where key actors in the city will come together to promote innovation for the radical acceleration of the Global Goals. The event will be accompanied by different run-up activities to promote co-creation and collaboration.

Interdisciplinary innovation will drive the format of the event. Unconventional yet purpose-driven activities are at the centre of the stage: e.g. problem solving hackathons, design thinking workshops, fast prototype clinics, ideas elevator pitches. In addition. our idea fair, offers a space for showcasing promising solutions.

We believe in the power of disruptive innovation and collaborative work. The G3iD follows a set of principles: disrupt, share, exchange, learn, do, co-create, inspire and engage.

Find out just what works and how it works in innovation; find ways to accelerate the achievement of the SDGs by using the power of innovation to create disruptive change..

group is holding is magical : experts coming from a diversity of backgrounds and professions at last united to

raise consciousness and to take actions to collaborate for regenerative purposes & processes for humans and the planet obviously gives true hope. With that said, I deeply sense these moves still need to be experienced from a point of view that is even more inclusive, more in tune with intuitive skills, emotional intelli-gence and heart, brain, body & soul coher-ence. We now need to embody what this paradigm changes imply both at an individual and at a collective level and consequently co-create in a bal-anced feminine & masculine / right-left brain that will provide aligned resources, perspectives & manifestations.

Living Lab feedback Living Lab- the power of co-creationI joined in at the last minute and I’m glad I did, what a Day!There was an incredible and powerful energy rising up all day long. Lots of great human emergence and collective intelligence put together to co-create a new sustainable world. I experienced the power of multiple that gives me faith in the possible emergence of an updated 21st century. I am happy to join this amazing group of people and to contribute in the future. I feel empowered. Patricai

Since I've always been convinced that playing and co-creating is our inner human nature, I was delighted to be part of these fantastic 3 days, what a thrill ! The amount of expertise, knowledge and wisdom such a group is holding is magical : experts coming from a diversity of backgrounds and professions, at last united to raise consciousness and to take actions, to col-laborate for regenerative purposes & processes for humans and the planet, obviously gives true hope.

With that said, I deeply sense these moves still need to be experienced from a point of view that is even more inclusive, more in tune with intuitive skills, emotional intelligence and heart, brain, body & soul coherence. We now need to embody what these paradigm changes imply both at an individual and at a collective level, and consequently co-create in a balanced feminine & masculine, right-left brain that will provide aligned resources, perspectives & manifestations.
