Topics

Upgrading Organizational Culture through Musical Play

“Culture” is our collective operating system. Music can teach us how to hack it. With concepts such as “rhythm” and “harmony”, music is an accurate metaphor for a beautifully flowing social unit. However, musical co-creation is also an effective way to invoke, access and experience all the things that make it flow beautifully.

Jurgis has developed a powerfully simple, “edutaining” methodology that is both  “community lab” and “community accelerator”. It reveals how trust, connection, coherence and other “human goodness” that we crave as social beings are also the essence to strong community. More importantly, he facilitates a safe space for experiencing them first hand and reaping the benefits of co-creating a state of exceptional togetherness.

Easily packagable as a speaking slot, a workshop, a group activation or “musical edutainment”. communityflux.com

Leveraging Values for Value

Values are more than something to decorate a wall in your office. They are emotional DNA that can be harnessed for meaningful change or a competitive advantage. “Social” is much more than a liability, responsibility or obligation. It is a potential resource that is often underestimated and misunderstood. Properly understanding “how values work” is the key to accessing an enormous cache of power within each organisation. Video

The science of FUN and driving engagement

“From Spectate to Participate” is a cocktail of live music, powerful ideas, and creative interaction that inverts the role of on an audience and demonstrates the dynamics and rewards of going from ‘safe and passive’ to ‘hands-on and engaged’.

By gently transforming spectators into active-stakeholders, Jurgis inspires us to tap into our own creative nature, and nudges us playfully challenge the rules and roles of social conventions in our lives. Video

Learning Human Connection from Indigenous People

Loneliness and digital fatigue are officially a thing. Employee estrangement and emotional well being is no longer taboo. Jurgis uses music to facilitate a conversation on emotional needs, what creates a sense of connection and belonging and why it matters so. More importantly, music is used as a medium to learn how to exercise the most important muscle of all – the heart.

Post-Sustainability Narratives

The real revolution will be regenerative. There are alternatives for those who feel sustainability is becoming synonymous with changing as little as possible to keep things exactly the same. The freshest, most inspiring proposals for planetary shift aren’t exactly new. From Buckminster Fuller to the ancient wisdom of indigenous elders, regenerative narratives incite us look up, look around, look back and consider the fantastically feasible scenarios of a world that works for 100% of life on earth.

It was something unique, fun and colourful. Community Culture Quickie strengthened the feeling of a shared purpose, connection and ownership at the launch of the #EuropeanGreenDeal.”

- Arnoldas Pranckevičius Head of European Commission Representation in Lithuania

“The Quickies for BFI have been immensely activating and valuable during this strange digital era. Jurgis’s mix of participative music balances the rational; it helped activate a different part of our minds and connect to one another. I highly recommend it for events, team-buildings, and generally making the world a more fun and engaging space!”

- Amanda Joy Ravenhill Executive Director of The Buckminster Fuller Institute
