A System of Living Thinking

ACTIVITY 1    Big Green Hand

Step 1

Draw a Big Green Hand and add all the elements that are part of A Living System of Thinking. Include what you remember about each element in order to add your own meaning to the Big Green Hand system.

Step 2

Ask yourself: how much more powerful, empowered, and confident would you be if this model went with you everywhere in your hands? Would it help guide you towards better judgements and more confidence in your thinking? Who may be invested in keeping you from learning this? 

Step 3

After drawing the model and thinking about these questions, have a group conversation about what this might mean in your organization and/or in your family.
