Mission/Objectives
Scope:
Our social world is built on the past decisions of others trying to solve the problems of particular contexts. Some of those past decisions have had unintended and toxic effects. But everything that was built by people can be rebuilt by people. If we are to design and implement new systems of social cooperation in organizations, policies and social institutions, we need the psychological flexibility to make sure that what we build reflects and embodies our shared values. Concurrently, to work effectively at this scale, we need to address psychological toxicity in the environments we wish to influence.
Mission:
The mission of the Leadership, Organizational Behavior Management, & Public Policy SIG is to scale the psychological flexibility model up to the level of organizations, public policy, and social institutions more generally. We believe it is especially important to consider the interrelationship between environment (toxic or nurturing) and psychological flexibility in our efforts to provide something of value to the world.
SIG Activities
This group will draw upon its membership for ideas, collaboration, research design, and strategic development of new knowledge, practice, and dissemination. We will interact via a dedicated SIG listserv and have an annual meeting at the ACBS World Conference. We will maintain a LOPP SIG Resources webpage.
Description of Membership
Our group includes but is not limited to those who are interested in basic and applied research, coaching, prevention science, public health, public policy, ACT, ACTraining, and the design of new ways to promote psychological flexibility at a societal level.

About the SIG
Mission
The Leadership, Organizational Behavior Management, & Public Policy SIG (LOPP-SIG) has a mission to scale the psychological flexibility model up to the level of organizations, public policy, and social institutions more generally. We believe it is especially important to consider the interrelationship between environment and psychological flexibility in our efforts to provide something of value to the world.
Scope
Our social world is built on the past decisions of others trying to solve the problems of particular contexts. Some of those past decisions have had unintended and toxic effects. But everything that was built by people can be rebuilt by people. If we are to design and implement new systems of social cooperation in organizations, policies and social institutions, we need the psychological flexibility to make sure that what we build reflects and embodies our shared values. Concurrently, to work effectively at this scale, we need to address psychological toxicity and promote psychological flourishing, and prosocial behaviors in the environments we wish to influence.
The nature of this SIG
This SIG is for people in the ACBS community who are interested in ways to promote psychological flexibility at a societal level, including through basic and applied research, coaching, public health, public policy, ACT, ACTraining, and the exploration of prosociality and organizational flexibility.
We encourage our members to network, share resources and support each other to solve problems, explore ideas, collaborate, design research, and develop and disseminate new knowledge and practice.
About the LOPP-SIG Coordinators
Your LOPP-SIG coordinators are: Annie Gascoyne and Carmella Tress. We took on the SIG administrative responsibilities in September 2019, and would like to thank our predecessors, Tresna Hunt and Donna Read.
About LOPP-SIG Membership and Communication
We currently have a LOPP-SIG membership database of 500+ people. Please be aware that signing up for membership doesn’t automatically provide access to the other members of the SIG. To interact with one another, we currently use a listserv (email communication) and/or a Facebook page (see below for information on both of these forms of communication).
About the LOPP-SIG Listserv
What is the listserv?
The listserv is a way for members to communicate via email. It operates in the same way as the main list for professionals. When you sign up to the listserv you will receive emails in your inbox, and you can send emails to the group. This communication is also recorded on the ACBS LOPP-SIG website. There are currently 183 people on the listserv.
You can join the listserv at the following site:
https://contextualscience.org/group/leadership_organizational_behavior_management_and
Emailing the list directly: Once you have signed up to the listserv you can email this group directly by sending your messages to: lopp-sig@lists.contextualscience.org
Updating your listserv preferences:
You can update all of your listserv options at the following site: https://contextualscience.org/how_do_i_manage_my_listserv_subscriptions
About the LOPP-SIG Facebook Page
What is the Facebook page?
The Facebook page was set up after a members’ vote at the World Conference in 2018. At the time, this was considered by voters to be a more user-friendly form of communication than the listserv.
There are currently 103 LOPP-SIG members on the Facebook page.
Joining the ACBS Facebook page
You can join either by typing in ACBS LOPP-SIG into Facebook, or you can copy and paste:

Additional Resources
This year, we created a new resources page (many thanks to Laura Purcell for her support in this), which includes articles, books, videos, slides, blogs and podcasts that are relevant to leadership, organizational behavior management and public policy. Please check out the page and if you have any relevant resources to add, please feel free to get in touch.

About the 2020 ACBS Conference
We’re keen to discuss opportunities for the LOPP-SIG members to meet during the 2020 conference. However, given the extraordinary circumstances we find ourselves in, it seems prudent to wait to hear more from the ACBS leadership team about what form the conference will take.
Best regards,
Carmella & Annie

Mission/Objectives
Scope:
Our social world is built on the past decisions of others trying to solve the problems of particular contexts. Some of those past decisions have had unintended and toxic effects. But everything that was built by people can be rebuilt by people. If we are to design and implement new systems of social cooperation in organizations, policies and social institutions, we need the psychological flexibility to make sure that what we build reflects and embodies our shared values. Concurrently, to work effectively at this scale, we need to address psychological toxicity in the environments we wish to influence.
Mission:
The mission of the Leadership, Organizational Behavior Management, & Public Policy SIG is to scale the psychological flexibility model up to the level of organizations, public policy, and social institutions more generally. We believe it is especially important to consider the interrelationship between environment (toxic or nurturing) and psychological flexibility in our efforts to provide something of value to the world.
Description of Membership
Our group includes but is not limited to those who are interested in basic and applied research, coaching, prevention science, public health, public policy, ACT, ACTraining, and the design of new ways to promote psychological flexibility at a societal level.
