Rippling change from inner work to transformation
This is a story about how inner work – the process of observing and tending to our innerworlds, our beliefs, biases, assumptions and worldviews – affects our ability to influence change in the world.
It follows Anindita Ghosh at Q – an organisation working in health improvement in the UK – several years after her participation in the learning programme Basecamp for Health Systems Transformation. It shows how systemic practice deepens over time and how inner work enables her to facilitate transformation in complex health systems.
Her journey reveals how, through processes of inner work, she underwent a fundamental shift: from seeing systems change as applying tools and methods, to understanding that systems change begins with shaping how we see the world and work with others. This case study helps us understand that our own transformation is inseparable from the outer transformation we seek.

The full story is available as a downloadable PDF. It is accompanied by a short slide deck designed to support facilitators to bring the story into learning spaces - whether as a brief anecdote or a deeper exploration - inviting reflection on systems change practice and the roles we each play within the systems we are part of.
