principles

Iterative Progress with Fast Feedback Cycles

Implementation: Embed short, iterative cycles of planning, execution, review, and adaptation across all levels of the network, from individual nodes to collective circles.

Purpose: This ensures continuous progress while allowing for rapid adjustment based on feedback and changing conditions, fostering a culture of agility and resilience.

Distributed Decision-Making

Implementation: Encourage decisions to be made by the node or circle closest to the issue or opportunity.

Purpose: This expands autonomy and empowerment, enabling faster, more locally informed decisions that enhance the network's overall responsiveness and effectiveness.

Transparent Communication and Information Sharing

Implementation: Utilize digital platforms and regular, structured meetings to ensure high transparency and open access to information for all nodes.

Purpose: Transparency fosters trust, facilitates informed decision-making, and ensures that every node has the context needed to contribute meaningfully.

Dynamic Role and Circle Evolution

Implementation: Regularly reassess and redefine roles and the composition of circles based on evolving needs, capacities, and strategic directions.

Purpose: Transparency fosters trust, facilitates informed decision-making, and ensures that every node has the context needed to contribute meaningfully.
