In the midst of so much that is shifting, we have the capacity to be in complexity and become more of ourselves in collaborations.
How do we show up?
How do we bring more and more of ourselves into our life and life-works that abundant and healthy?
The basis for collaboration is trusting that each can open in a collective process that brings more and more of themselves into doing their part well in the complex landscape of their living and working engagement.
There is personal work, relational work and de-structuring/organic process structural work to free stuck patterns, lost resources and reduce extractive dependencies. Through dialogue, acknowledgement, agreements and consensus processes groups craft organisational everyone can rely on of how things get done well and the systems accountability is transparent and co-regulating through healthy relationships.
Through weekly individual and team sessions we do the inner and organisational works to discover creative confidence and systems sensing. We use outdoor ventures, collective story-telling and action based methods that invoke curiosity and wonder to unfold the potential that is available when we show up to be full present and open commonly held agency.
Process work happens individually and with the collective across scales and domains.
As each of us check-ins to our next zoom meeting, what is the sense that we bring that allows others to open up and bring their best? What is the quality that comes out when we show appreciation instead of holding on to stories of conflict or critical thoughts about another’s project, contributions, presentation or statements? Many organisations are obsessed with promoting competition among their organisations and benchmarking performance Between teams. Instead we need to consider how we are treating each person with integrity and dignity. When we take a moment to check into how we are in the service of someone else’s learning edges, we open vast creative potential and share confidence in collaboration instead of competition. Our being present allows us to be much more curios, we can slow down and support with a quiet presence, a craftsman’s appreciation of what is at work and co-leadership skill in collaboration. It can release abundant energy and transform culture when old patterns are holistically integrated.
