Subject: Connect, Learn, Grow: Join Our New Community Learning Calls

Community Resonance Calls
start next week!


We are pleased to announce a new bi-monthly community space taking place every two months: Co-Intelligence Community Resonance Calls. These are meant to complement our Real World Co-Intelligence Calls, which we will be continuing to have on alternate months, featuring the work of awesome practitioners.


These new Resonance Calls are an opportunity to have a bit of emergent space, where we can have an opportunity to connect with one another without a predetermined topic. Whether you have a project in progress, a specific idea to explore or share - our intention is that these resonance calls will provide a co-creative space for mutual learning. Of course, being who we are, we will be making connections between whatever you choose to bring, and the larger topics of wise democracy and co-intelligence!

Each call will be lightly facilitated with some simple group guidelines. We hope you will join us, and feel free to invite any others interested in exploring co-intelligence and wise democracy in community.

The first Resonance call is next week - Friday April 26th 
(9:30 - 11AM Pacific / 12:30 - 1PM Eastern / 5:30 - 7PM BST)

RWCI call with Miki Kashtan
& the NGL community

Join us on Friday, May 24th for our next Real World Co-Intelligence call, featuring members of the Nonviolent Global Liberation (NGL) community - including its founder, long time friend of CII - Miki Kashtan. NGL is a community of people who are committed to living by some very powerful principles and practices that are very resonant with co-intelligence. Join us as they share key aspects of their work and group process with us.


As always RWCI calls are intimate and highly participatory. The call will include a presentation from our featured guests, questions and group conversation, as well as Tom’s insightful perspectives on where he sees co-intelligence and wise democracy patterns and possibilities in what was presented.

Old and new friends of CII gathered for a very special occasion last month on Wednesday March 27th to celebrate the launch of Tom’s new book! Watch the replay and hear Tom tell the story of Co-Intelligence - The Applied Wisdom of Wholeness, Interconnectedness, and Co-Creativity. Watch this interactive session which includes Tom sharing excerpts and poems from the book and some great group discussion and Q&A.



April's Wise Democracy Pattern


Consulting and Abiding by Willingness


Coercion drains life from living systems for narrow short-term results. Readiness to contribute is a precious, vulnerable but ever-renewable resource for wisdom and action. So ask about, respect, protect and evoke willingness — and as we make and respond to requests and suggestions, notice how willingness evolves, interactively shaping how we choose, act, speak, agree / disagree, let go, and persist.


Featured Question


How can we combine the free energy of willingness with our understanding of where action needs to be focused?

I blow and blow… POP!
