About the event

An Invitation To Be Part of Something Bold, Necessary and Transformative

This is not just an invitation to simply attend—it’s an invitation to co-create.

We are living at an inflection point—a moment in history where the future is still open to be shaped. As we near the close of the SDG era and look beyond, it is clear that the next chapter will demand more of us—not just new policies or technologies, but a profound evolution in how we lead, live, and relate to one another.

Our gathering 26 – 28 September 2025: Personal Mastery for Collective Impact – A Journey Toward Sustainable Futures, in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam stands on the shoulders of giants. This is the first time since 1997 that the biennial Forum is hosted in Asia, positioning Vietnam as the heart of a global movement for collective impact. 

It continues the 25-year legacy of the Society for Organizational Learning (SoL)—a global network co-founded by Peter Senge and other visionaries who introduced the world to systems thinking, learning organizations, and the integration of personal growth with institutional transformation. SoL has always believed that change begins from within—and that the inner life of leaders directly shapes the systems we seek to transform.

We are convening a diverse and global community of pioneers, practitioners, and purpose-driven leaders along with committed curious learners to explore together how deep personal mastery and conscious leadership can unlock meaningful systems-level change. If that’s you, come join us.

SPECIAL OPPORTUNITY

Empowering the Emerging SoL Community in Vietnam

Over three days in the vibrant Vietnam, there will be a series of workshops, panel discussions, case studies’ presentations as well as experiential learning activities to just be in theory and frameworks but also in practices and experiences that highlight the imperative of Personal Mastery in sustaining any broader change, and as a way to make a meaningful impact on navigating the VUCA future.

Amazing Thought Leaders & Facilitators

We are honored to feature some of the most influential thinkers and practitioners in this space, including : Peter Senge, whose groundbreaking work on learning organizations transformed leadership worldwide and continues to inspire transformational change across sectors; Adam Kahane, a master facilitator of complex social change; Nora Bateson, who brings a powerful lens of complexity, ecology, and relational intelligence.

Inspiring Case Stories & Compelling Learnings

In addition we will be engaging with inspiring leaders in Vietnam from the business, non for profit and other sectors to hear how they have navigated challenges and complexities to emerge clearer and stronger for what lies ahead. These include Chris Freund, founder of Mekong Capital whose unique Vision Driven framework pulls for transformative business models, Jimmy Pham, founder of KOTO whose heartwarming mission of supporting street kids to have a new lease of life showcasing a systems approach to alleviating the vicious cycle of poverty, and many more!

Follow Up Local Engagement

This Global SOL Forum 2025 event in Vietnam also empowers the emergence of a new SOL Community in Vietnam. Impact Velocity is a key partner bringing together local tri-sector next generation leaders and youth innovators called Impacteers to initiate and activate impact projects in three areas of People Inner Development, Planet Renewal and Progress Sharing (3Ps), all towards generating a thriving living system for all. Impact Velocity hosts systems awareness learning sessions for this network of impacteers who also become 3P role models. www.impactvelocity.net

PROGRAMME OVERVIEW

Exploring Together

There are two key areas of focus of this 2025 Global SOL Forum is one, how are we equipping our current organizational leaders in the face of complexities and accelerated change and two, how we are equipping our future – the youths in the face of complexities and accelerated change.  What if these parallel tracks of present and future can meet today to co-evolve and generate a thriving living system that we all want?Each day we will journey through UNCOVERING, PRESENCING and ACTIONING; from the very heart of personal mastery and systems awareness to engage with individuals and organizations that are already engaging and open to engaging in Personal Mastery as a critical access to generate ways of living, working and socializing that bring wellbeing to every member and element of the system.

ABOUT PERSONAL MASTERY

Although there are many definitions and frameworks around Personal Mastery today, as the Society for Organizational Learning, we are primarily guided by Personal Mastery as a discipline espoused by Peter Senge in his 1990 book, “The Fifth Discipline”, as a foundational discipline of continuous learning of self, from part awareness towards systems awareness, which involves recognizing one’s role within these systems and how one’s own actions contribute to broader outcomes. In connecting profoundly and collectively to a shared future, the impetus to foster conditions where humans and nature can thrive together for the long term with healthier social systems, promoting shared leadership and willingness to adapting to navigate complex systems and their challenges effectively.
