Emérgéntly Seed Spirals

Spiral EWFATry sowing these 4 seeds to emerge gently into a regenerative future and give Nature a seat at the table.

Seeds, when nourished, emerge into a new order, a new system. The Emérgéntly Spiral is a nature-based, metaphorical framework that guides us toward emergent solutions and actions. These 4 Emérgéntly Seed Spirals will help re-mind your understandings of how we can better receive and apply Mother Nature's principles to our own challenges.

The seeds to sow for transformational change are:
Four Principles to solidify systems-thinking;
Four Eco Ego imperatives to unify us to collaborate interdependently;
Four Functions to energise us to be more eco-logical.
Four Practices to transform how we adapt to uncertainty.

Principles SpiralSpiral Principles Eco Ego Spiral

When EGOs understand that it's no longer about what I need...but rather, what the system needs... then Nature's principles of diversity and interdependence allow the emergence of synergy! More on the Principles SpiralspiralInBullet.

Values to explore when you, your team, your community need integrity reminders, holistic solutions and peaceful outcomes.

Functions SpiralSpiral Processes Practices SpiralSpiral Uncertainty

The metaphors: Fire, Earth, Water, Air, reflect the nature of action—the four interdependent functions of a whole system. More on the Functions Spiral.

Emérgéntly works best with Next Practice in the FIRE realm of high complexity and uncertainty. More on the Practices SpiralspiralInBullet.
