Differentiation ~ An Alternative to Models of Control & Conflict

• Develop awareness of the System (Whole)
• Differ "with" – Engage in the expression of differences, challenges and "rubs" with multiple pairs of people without need for resolution
• Understand conflict as the process of diferentiation trying to occur through one pair of individuals (or teams, groups, departments, companies, communities, states or nations)
• Facilitate toward the expression of differences through multiple pairs of people
• Recognize polarizations, fragmentation, ally-seeking, scapegoating and as regressive versions of differentiation

• Learn processes for tracking and following the emergent collective intelligence and converging into action

Transformation
