Notice…
• With each new worldview, the way everything is done is different
• Each new emergence involves rethinking every aspect of our ‘way of doing things’…– beliefs about why and what we are doing– language, metaphors, myths– organisational model, task and process structures– goals and success measurement
• Proof it is happening is the presence and robustness of the conversation about it

Self Management
• No-one is the boss of anyone else– although the CEO is still the visionary
• Highly structured without hierarchies– e.g. human cell, morning traffic, forest– daily blogs, forums, transparency
• Supporting Practices– advice process for decision making– deep listening for conflict resolution– peer recruitment and evaluation
Essence of Distributed Intelligence
![Page 37: Living Organisations - Center for Nonviolent … Model_Summary...Living Organisations Bringing the ... Ben & Jerry’s. Like a Family: ... – Commitment to manifesting the shared](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022051801/5addba9d7f8b9a213e8d29d6/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Decision Making
• Hierarchical vs. Consensus• Transcend and Include: Advice Process
– Seek advice from people with expertise– Seek advice from those impacted by decision
• Not everyone is equal in all matters– Fluid hierarchies of recognition, influence and skill
• Live with the consequences of your decisions– Self and Peer reviewed
![Page 38: Living Organisations - Center for Nonviolent … Model_Summary...Living Organisations Bringing the ... Ben & Jerry’s. Like a Family: ... – Commitment to manifesting the shared](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022051801/5addba9d7f8b9a213e8d29d6/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Remuneration
• Everyone decides their own pay level– valued by usefulness of perspectives
and willingness and skill in sharing– hybrid package of salary and incentives
• Advice process feedback from local committee• Everyone knows everyone’s package
– transparency removes salary as a stressor

Wholeness Coming Home
• personal transformation required– know that your success is assured, when you are
navigating without fear – there is enough.– receive graciously all events and changes as
opportunities to learn – nothing is by accident.– welcome the influence of others in the co-creation
of your shared future.– be unafraid to explore, to experiment and to fail.– know that you know for sure only one thing.

Teal Light
• Seek wholeness that includes personal gain– values rational, emotional & intuitive domains– new way of seeing creates new way of being
- confident in abundance vs. fearful of scarcity - absence of subtle manipulation or bullying - focused and playful, open and unafraid
– less serious, less dramatic, more purposeful– evolutionary purpose drives all words & deeds– willing to be surprised, to learn and be humble

Teal Shadow
• Emergence of healthy ego leads to narcissism– insistent about ‘how it should be’– devalues views of others– complex defences against critique and regret
• …can lead to the Master Manipulator– uses ‘skilful means’ in service of self– can justify or reframe almost any ethical challenge– uses drama to destabilise then influence systems

Transformational Skyhooks
• Remember to listen with the ears of the heart– Sensitive to the context of shared purpose– Hears and embraces both reason and feeling,
structure and free flow of the creative– Accepting and yet discerning, open yet alert– Natural integrative intelligence that is the seat of
creativity

Transformational Skyhooks
• Remember that context creates meaning– Watch for meaning displacement across contexts– Open to new and more constructive meaning in
the present context
• Welcome resistance and judgment– Shows where you are attached to old ways

Subtle Violence• The subtle body is an auric energy field that defines and animates
the human personality …– The environment in which the subtle body lives is made of thoughts,
words and actions that carry both meaning and emotion.– Different contexts are defined by different structures of meaning that
evoke different feeling tones and their behaviours.• e.g. home, work, intimate relationships, time alone, with friends, driving, etc.• created by the rules, agreements, contracts, instruction, information … spoken
and recorded, explicit and implied.– contexts create and inform the meaning attached to experience, and
are often skewed to favour those who created or control them.
• Where the structure of a context includes a threat (of punishment or withdrawal), language becomes an instrument of subtle violence
• Forcefulness and manipulation, so commonplace as to be barely questioned, are the everyday instruments of subtle violence.

NVC and RO
• The essence of teal is the absence of subtle violence from the language that defines the work context.
• The essence of NVC is a description and practise of a structure of language that is inherently non-violent.
• Every participant in a teal workplace will have their own form of NVC.
• NVC packaged for the corporate profit-driven context can be sold as the key that unlocks the possibility of a smooth transition into a more profitable and resilient teal way of doing business.
