A pattern that works....

COLLECTIVE HARVESTING FROM THE " FIVE BREATHS"

1. Name the issue – calling the core question
Wise Action: Focus the Chaos of holding the collective uncertainty and fear – step into the center….of the disturbance
Don’t: Move too fast
Question: What is real at stake here ?  What if some of us worked together to surface the real question and need that matter to the community ?

2. Creating Collective Clarity of Purpose and Principles
Wise Action: Engagement
Don’t: Make assumptions
Question: How to get from need to purpose? What is our purpose? How
to see and feed the group value?

3. Design and Invitation Process
Wise Action: Check in again and again to see if your design and
invitation serve the purpose.
Don’t: Try to do too much in your design (match it to the purpose).
Question: How do we create an inspired invitation that moves people to
come? How do we let go of our expectations that certain people need to
be there?

4. Meeting—Hosting the Group, Purpose, and Questions
Wise Action:
Don’t: Go alone.
Question: How can I best serve as the instrument/container to allow the collective wisdom?

5. Follow-up—Continued Learning and Leading from the Field
Wise Action: Always come back to purpose.
Don’t: Lose sight of the purpose or it won’t be embodied.
Question: How do we sustain the self-organization?
