Description of Challenge
We often get very absorbed in our projects. Sometimes we can’t see the wood for the
trees. How can we use the individual and collective wisdom of a group, and the diverse
perspectives of its members, to support the fullest and deepest realisation of our
dreams?
Solution
using a blend of World Cafe and Open Space processes, we can create dynamic,
creative and fluid spaces in which we support each other to interrogate more deeply
the plans and projects we are already working on. Focusing on questions such as,
‘What is the deeper question you are addressing?’ or ‘What is missing?’ can enable us
to go deeper into the true nature of our vision. It also helps to maximise the
contribution of group members, who actually love to support one another given the
chance!
