Graves and paints clear, explanatory images of not only how humanity has evolved to this point, but what is inevitably on our horizon . . . and how this epic transition will continue to play out.<\/p>\n<p>He is currently writing a book about the global paradigm shift that\u2019s taking us beyond the scientific-industrial era. Steve served with the Australian Army for 15 years, including war service as an infantry company commander in Somalia, 1993. He is also a qualified military helicopter pilot and on leaving the army he flew a rescue helicopter in the tropical Mackay-Whitsunday region of Queensland. Building upon his extensive experience in unpredictable environments, after retiring from flying Steve specialized as a change management consultant. He consequently studied the developmental psychology research of Dr Clare W Graves and became one of the first Australians qualified to teach Dr Graves\u2019 theory under the banner of Spiral Dynamics Integral. A long-term struggle with posttraumatic stress has driven Steve\u2019s deep interest in human nature and consciousness. He is a founder of Psychedelic Research in Science &amp; Medicine, an Australian non-profit association. He is also a founder of AADII, a non-profit company created to support worldwide transformational change.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>source Steve McDonald is an extraordinary Australian thinker and researcher who arguably knows as much about the structure of the global planetary transition that we are experiencing as anyone on the planet. &nbsp;He draws coherent pictures from the deep insights of Clair W.
