LÚCIDA - Regenerative Thinking for Clear Actions

WHO WE ARE We are an organization that manages change processes, with a focus on Regenerative Development, integrating People, Society and Planet. As an organization, we are part of an international network of knowledge and practices oriented towards systemic change. Project by project, we welcome other partners whose areas of expertise enrich our way of thinking and delivering services to customers. As people, we are “Regenerative Thinkers”, and daily we put into practice the principles of Lucida: in an integrated and not fragmented or reductionist way, we think, coordinate, manage, train and participate in change processes of different natures: of paradigm; the way of thinking; the way of acting - always based on Regenerative Development principles. We work together with those involved in each project, in a way that is anchored in reality, in the context, and in the routines and challenges of people and organizations' day-to-day lives. WHAT WE DO At Lúcida, we share the understanding of how living systems - such as nature, culture and the human being - operate, and we provide thinking, design and cooperation in order to develop capabilities - such as critical and systemic thinking, flexibility of perspective, and conscious participation - so that each entity (whether a person, team, organization or community) can better manage itself and its context, leading to more enlightened and creative choices in achieving its goals and greater purposes. We promote the development of methodologies that enable reviewing the status quo, redefine purposes for the future, build strategic capabilities in people, teams and leadership, and co-create living processes that generate new perspectives based on a systemic understanding of your challenge. This work allows one to understand what needs to be done to better align personal and organizational development with the values and results one aims to achieve in the world. It also allows triggering clear actions or dynamics that can generate new value for the larger system where one operates and from which one benefits (value chain, sector, territory, community…). FIELDS OF INTERVENTION Regenerative thinking and design (of projects and processes) Strategic leadership and management Capacity-building in critical thinking and collaboration Design and facilitation of participatory processes Organizational culture Individual and team mentorship and coaching Local and community development Education in regenerative development HOW WE WORK We work with mental processes and collaborative tools that enable us to see both externally - our behaviors and actions - and internally - our thinking and inner life that influence the way we feel and act. We design services and deliverables tailored to the unique needs and characteristics of our customers, partners and the systems in which they operate. We do not believe in providing answers for those we serve. Rather, we surface questions and patterns that promote awareness and learning with the aim of developing agency in one’s thinking, actions and the results achieved. Below are some examples of how we have worked with teams, organizations, consortia, communities or networks: - Transformative and future purposes definition - Reflexive and strategic capacity-building in project leaders and teams - Pattern identification and systematization that limit and enhance the desired change - Systemic sense-making and insight generation that support key interventions in the organization - Mentoring, facilitation and training sessions for leaders and/or teams - Design and capacity-building of collaborative processes, both internal and external with partners and stakeholders
