Sarah asked during last week’s strategy meeting.
Edward smiled and answered
Team, that’s exactly
What we will decide these coming weeks.
We will go beyond last year’s boundaries
Notwithstanding the great progress we made.
Who feels that we as individuals …
We are meant for more?
Who feels as division …
We only scratched the surface?
The entire team said
“Oh, yes!”
…
It’s now Sunday evening
Edward reflects about last week
Before he enters the Theatre of his Mind
To visualize the coming week.
Last week’s strategy meeting:
Contrarian and incredible.
Edward outlined his suggestion
His invitation
To imagine how the division would be
When they started from scratch.
Who would they be?
What would they do?
How would they do it?
Based on which principles?
…
Edward and his team
Already discovered last year
The importance of aligning
Personal and organizational WHYs.
But then what?
Knowing these … talking about them
Isn’t enough.
…
During the holidays
Edward studied again the Hero’s Journey.
He realized that everyone
Has the opportunity
To make their life a hero’s journey.
Individuals as well as
Teams, organizations and communities.
With that in mind
Edward developed a methodology
Which he loved to share with the team
…
He decided otherwise …
As he wanted to find a way
Which would make the discoveries
Natural and meaningful.
Life is a dynamic system
Everyone has their own journey to make
But …
The step-by-step approach
Can be the same for all.
…
Edward recalls Sarah’s deep question
“Why do we work together, Edward?”
Edward responded
“How about we as team
Work on a methodology together
Which leads to answer
Not only that question
But also gives us the meaning
We are looking for in our lives?”
Edward recognizes the power of
‘WE’ and Co-creation.
…
Edward had learned from his team
Providing instructions doesn’t work
Everyone needs to make
Their own discoveries
Come to their own conclusions.
It’s about giving confidence
About providing space
Then … the best results appear.
…
Edward is looking forward to
Another incredible week.
He will now visualize
In the Theatre of his Mind
The step-by-step methodology
They will work on together.
He sees WHY and Vision
As the critical starting point.
One thing is for sure:
It will be contrarian.
