Hi everyone,
As we continue on our shared journey of investigating complexity, living systems, and our role as adaptive leaders , we also must journey into a new realm of understanding what we share together -- our connection to a collective wisdom that is available to each of us as we participate in our "swamp" groups. Each "swamp" group is a collective experience; each "swamp" group provides you with the opportunity to work collectively and learn what it means to harness new thought and creative solutions.
For Monday (2/21), I invite you to read chapters 7 & 8 in the Power of Collective Wisdom text. Select one passage per chapter to write out. Here are the specific directions:
1. Select one passage or key sentences per chapter.
2. Copy it exactly into the blog making sure to cite the page.
3. Write about what you believe the author is saying in the passage (what does the author mean?).
4. Next, write about why this particular passage is important to you as you begin to work collectively as a "swamp" group.
5. Finally, I invite you to not post and run, but to come back to visit the "shared journey" site -- read your peers' comments and reflections and comment, if you wish, on what is unfolding.
We've got a world to change together -- by learning to work collectively we have greater abilities and tools needed for this good work.
I look forward to reading your posts!
Jane
