Useful Presuppositions

To accelerate engagement and synergies of ideas, mindsets open to eco over ego approaches give hope for a brighter, just future. Celebrate what presuppositions resonate with you ... dare to be naive about what doesn't, and commit to explore how presuppositions can make 'the world work for 100% of humanity and the planet.'

• Nature is all of life: human and non-human.
• The metaphor of Nature has four Elements: Water - Fire - Earth - Air.
• The tetrahedron is four-sided and the simplest three dimension system possible.
• Four triangles folding into a tetrahedron is a metaphor for viewing your project in 4 parts (triangles) of a whole system (tetrahedron).
• A whole system is greater than the sum of its parts.
• The nature (essence, spirit or unique pattern) of a project is defined by the relationships between its parts and to its context.
• We must shift from ego-centric to eco-centric, regenerative strategies for the sustainability of humanity and the planet.
• Whatever we do must serve Nature.

Emérgéntly

For solutions to emerge gently...

Nature energises us with evidence.

Evidence solidifies our eco-centric next-steps.

Our eco-centric next-steps unify our hopes and actions.

Our hopes and actions transform into emergent solutions.

Gently Shift from Ego-Centric to Eco-Logical Strategies

When strategising in times of uncertainty, use the Emérgéntly free resources to:

• Shift from what I/we need, to what the ecology/system needs.
• Aim for eco-centric, emergent outcomes (rather than ego-centric, desired outcomes).
• Provide a framework for Next Practice decision making when there is no Best Practice.
• Facilitate processes that enable ecological, peaceful solutions to emerge gently.
• Serve Nature...always.

What is Emérgéntly?

Emérgéntly is a framework, approach, resources and strategies to shift from ego-centric to eco-logical decision making.

THE FRAMEWORK Energises

The framework energises us to integrate science and ancestral intelligence, using the four elements of Nature as a cross-cultural metaphor  to explore how systems function. It helps us understand apparent chaos, based on a simple fractal pattern of relationships that shows up at many different scales.

THE APPROACH Unifies

The Emérgéntly approach is a unifying, ecological exploration of how diverse and interdependent relationships work best.

THE RESOURCES Solidify

The video, slideshow and document resources solidify abstract concepts into easily visualised diagrams that spiral in for depth of meaning, or spiral out for a wider perspective.

THE STRATEGIES Transform

The strategies transform ego-centric strategies into eco-centric, spiral strategies based on interdependent relationships.
