Otto Scharmer

Otto Scharmer is a leading thinker in organizational change and leadership, best known for developing "Theory U." This framework describes how individuals and organizations can create meaningful change by shifting their awareness and approach. Instead of focusing solely on problem-solving, Scharmer's approach encourages tuning into deeper levels of perception—listening to oneself and others more fully—to uncover innovative solutions. By moving through a process of sensing, presencing (a state of deep presence), and acting, leaders can foster transformative change that aligns with their purpose and the collective good.
