What? Liberating Structures contain a Design System So What? They stack up and make LS both easy to learn, get started applying and build the skill of facilitation Now What? LFGWhat? LS are practices, not theoretical So What? That means we’re always applying them to real life contexts and situations Now What? Here’s what I want to have some grip on in order to pick the right LS… 🅿️ lace: what context, situtation or challenges am I operating in? 🅿️ urpose: what do I want to have happen in th...
gospelofchangeProcess Mindfulness: Agreement Certainty Matrix
Process Mindfulness is not a meditation but an impractical framework that will encourage you to waste some time thinking about, planning and organizing communication in order to figure out what/how you want to get something done, instead of actually going to get something done. Curious though isn’t it? That sometimes you can just shoot from the hip and go get shit done, and yet others you need to stop, think and sometimes you know, make a god-damned plan. How do you know when you need to do o...

So bandwith is a particular type of potential, in this instance for flow. It’s a broad technical term but I’m going to use it to talk about max potential to be used of human time attention information energy processing.Human time attention information energy has enormous creative potential but requires a lot of invested energy as well. At the micro/individual scale a brain accounts for something like 2% of body mass but uses almost 20% of calories. This is a huge evolutionary choice that must...

A question I received this morning:
What makes Liberating Structures(LS) liberating?
There is some quantitative reasons that have to do with the consequences that LS cause and a some qualitative ones that have to do with how that experience feels.
Quant has to do with the way that the LS Design Elements help us to get a grip on how:
Interaction mechanics that enable everyone to participate in smaller groups in shorter time boxes
Inquiry is guided by exploratory questions
Artifacts are used to
cohere conversation
collect information
export content of conversations to the wider stakeholder context enabling...
feedback
async participation
These combine to increase the throughput of information, insights and ideas, improving the probability of the relevant information getting to the right place at an appropriate time. We can call this the coefficient of Relational Chaordination
This Relational Chaordination is pretty Liberating from what Joe Freeman calls the Tyranny of Structurelessness https://www.jofreeman.com/joreen/tyranny.htm
The Qualia has to do with
the way that LS are hyper contextual responses
the Principles that tend to arise from playing with LS
and how hyper contextual responses, the principles and this relational chaordination feel
Confuisiasm is the way we describe the sense that as an individual I can sometimes lose the plot but feel really excited and engaged at the same time. Where though no one seems to be in control and complexity overwhelms, a new portion of our brain is lighting up and I like it
This is the vibe of Liberation: active participation and engagement that influences both the content and guides the process of the larger conversationMaking both of these very accessible for anyone to influence is what makes LS Liberating
