Question: What lenses shape the way that you make meaning?

The third Sunday of Easter always features a gospel story of Jesus sharing food with his disciples. These are not the stories that we usually associate with the sacrament of Holy Communion, but perhaps they should be. The resurrected Christ sharing food adds an important element to the way that we interpret his "last" meal, and it also gives us the opportunity to think about the ways that we find meaning in the practices of our faith.

Hermeneutics, Sacrament, and Other Relatable Experiences

How we language our story will heavily influence the ways we navigate life. Are we telling a clear story? A helpful story? 

Episode 260 - The Stories I Tell

In this episode, we discuss the book "Social Worlds. A Communication Perspective", written by Barnett Pearce. This book inspires us to look at our communication patterns from a meta perspective and thereby open up for new insights and ideas. Taking a ”communication perspective” as Pearce recommends, provides an opportunity for more mutual understanding in the global complexity we find ourselves in today, where multiple perspectives exist around the same issue. The episode was recorded in 2020, the year of the worldwide COVID 19 pandemic.

6. What are we making together?

Art of Collaborating is a podcast produced by Länka Consulting. Länka was established in 2015 by Anna Zingmark and Karoline Bottheim with the mission to explore and develop the tricky "art" of multi-stakeholder-collaboration. When we meet between organizations, sectors and knowledge areas in order to find solutions for handling complex societal challenges, we need support from practical methods and ways of understanding how to collaborate more efficiently. After years of discussing this topic with experts, researchers and practitioners all over the world, we are quite sure that multi-stakeholder collaboration can be called an advanced "art", a specific way of working, it may even be seen as a specific "community of practice". With our podcast, we want to make this - really necessary - specific way of working accessible to more people who find themselves in complex processes with many stakeholders involved.
