Open Field Awakening

Friends,

There is a field of work in the world today around recognizing, understanding, and encouraging the next wave in the evolution of the way we collaborate and organize to get things done. I'm not talking about the simple "better to do list", as much as I'm speaking to the creative ways people are coming together to create entirely new business, educational, and other organizational structures.

Some of the big names in the field include:

• The book titled "Reinventing Organizations" by Frederick Laloux (http://www.reinventingorganizations.com) which has spawned a global dialogue on the subject by identifying and describing organizations from a variety of sectors around the world embodying new ways of organizing.
• The organization HolacracyOne – who offers a unique model of eliminating "a management class" and the inefficiencies inherent to that (http://www.holacracy.org) (Zappos online retailer has recently implemented that style of organizing (https://hbr.org/ideacast/2016/07/the-zappos-holacracy-experiment.html).)

An emerging organization, encode.org (http://www.encode.org), now offers to explore how we can create new legal structures of organizing to create work that meets our individual and collective senses of purposeful living and engagement for fun and profit.

I'm writing to inquire to discover what interest you or your group might have in attending a workshop put on here in San Diego by our friends encode.org. Please feel free to explore some of the references below and get back to me with your interest, either on this channel, or directly by email to [email protected].

Thank you and warmest regards,

Kabir

Reinventing Organizations Based on three years of research, the book Reinventing Organizations describes the emergence of a new management paradigm, a radically more soulful, purposeful and powerful ways to structure and run businesses and non-profits, schools and hospitals.

Gearing up! Only 6 more days until we journey into the StAGES Periodic Table of Consciousness with Dr. Terri O'Fallon and Kim Barta M.A! And we may have discovered a new addition to the table of elements!

The Planetary Collective created a short-film documenting astronaut's life-changing stories of seeing the Earth from the outside. Common features of the experience are a feeling of awe for the planet, a profound understanding of the interconnection of all life, and a renewed sense of responsibility for taking care of the environment.

We deeply appreciate the opportunity to see our work, not unique to us, but rather as a part of an evolutionary movement towards a more integrated, more life-affirming, more grateful effacement to the majesty of existence. This video just came to us from my mom, apparently this man was one of my father's teachers many years ago. Beautiful to feel part of something so long and deep and profoundly resonant with my own heart.

Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing and rightdoing,
there is a field. I'll meet you there.

When the soul lies down in that grass,
the world is too full to talk about.
Ideas, language, even the phrase "each other" doesn't make any sense.
