Rules of Brainstorming

• Quantity over quality

• The more ideas, the better

• The wilder the ideas, the better

• No discussion

• No evaluation

• Hitch-hiking is OK

• Silence is OK

Authentic Change

• x Topics – Based upon specific issues, content areas

• Start – Brainstorm for identified issue (I.e. 4 minutes)

• Rotate – Review previous comments, add to list

• Rotate – Continue to rotate until return “home”

• Review all contributions, group, prioritize

Authentic Change

Am I Practicing Authentic Commitment?

Being deeply involved in what I am

doing and my motive is pure. I am

doing

what I am doing because I believe it is

inherently right, and not because

of the external rewards it might bring.Presented by Robert Quinn, The Masters Forum, May 23, 2000

Am I Practicing Practical Vision?

The capacity to access the deepest

truths of present reality and integrate

them with

a meaningful image of a better future

state so that the image continually

pulls

myself and/or others into

new patterns of action.

Presented by Robert Quinn, The Masters Forum, May 23, 2000

Am I Practicing Unconditional Confidence?

The capacity to face the unknown and

to continually move forward so as

to co-create a new reality.

This improvisational process is done

while seeking accurate feedback

on both success and failure.Presented by Robert Quinn, The Masters Forum, May 23, 2000

Am I Practicing Carefrontation?

The capacity to put the welfare of

others selflessly ahead of personal

interests

while boldly and unwaveringly

challenging them to live up to a

standard that you are already

modeling for them.Presented by Robert Quinn, The Masters Forum, May 23, 2000

It is far better to dare mighty things, to

win glorious triumphs, even if

checkered by failure, than to take rank

with those poor spirits who neither

enjoy much nor suffer much because

they know neither victory nor defeat.

-Theodore Roosevelt
