That is, if we don't take the time to do our own thinking and interrogate our own practice. At this point in time, I find Seth says things that seem timely in terms of my own self reflections and thinking.Craighttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04747247073946057002noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1826949209629651545.post-41617326851513926382011-03-21T01:19:22.262-07:002011-03-21T01:19:22.262-07:00Is Seth the new guru in the guru loop?Is Seth the new guru in the guru loop?Tanya Healyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16125273283484979491noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1826949209629651545.post-77062596587082158292011-03-20T01:29:56.886-07:002011-03-20T01:29:56.886-07:00This is a hard one!

Maybe it's time to take this wondering to the people??<br /><br />As Seth Goodin says, When you think outside the box, what you're actually doing is questioning the decision before the decision.nickidunn3112https://www.blogger.com/profile/11441632773563050938noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1826949209629651545.post-52557959380319108582011-03-19T18:53:42.840-07:002011-03-19T18:53:42.840-07:00I enjoyed reading this post Craig.

In large organisations and actually even at home I think we communicate more often for efficiency, which is sad. I guess it depends on what is being communicated. "Stuff" like systems or plans might need to be in black and white, or reminded. Big picture philosophy/values might be communicated in everyday conversation or my personal favourite - through the art of questioning. Is it more likely that the big picture communication will bed that which founds the need for the "stuff" communication. <br /> I do think that over communication is disempowering at some point. If you are on the being spoken to end you will learn not to listen. This relates in someways to Internal Choice Theory. Like Seth says - communication is co-construction. Perhaps it might be interesting to reflect on the "rhythm" of the communication or consider an analogy for the communication ie the family conversation at the dinner table - what is yours like most times, how would you like it to be, what is distracting about it, is it just for systems discussion, what type of communication happens there? I find that when one develops a strong analogy for an issue then this can frame why and how we approach it.Rochelle's Lenzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18102630486967913279noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1826949209629651545.post-82357280129275369742011-03-19T16:26:19.781-07:002011-03-19T16:26:19.781-07:00At Katikati Bruce used to send out a weekly commun...At Katikati Bruce used to send out a weekly communication called "The Blurb" which pretty much covered any important stuff staff needed to know for the week, and of course, as he was very much into learning for everyone, there was always a reflective comment / link to reading etc that we were expected to comment on. I found this an awesome way of needing to know stuff on a need to know basis! as well as keeping up with reflective practice and latest research - Bruce was very much into BES.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
