A meeting is any encounter where we have the opportunity to strengthen relationships – from a text message to a group physical encounter. In every meeting, we ask: what is our intention, and how is it manifested? Meetings have 3 basic components: Process, Culture, and Content. We are responsible for conscious design in each of these. We also design with respect to the elements of our humanity: thinking, feeling, and willing. This engenders a self-organizing vitality that invites participants into their highest selves and contributions.
