Each of us is being called forth to navigate these unprecedented challenges and be a catalyst for a new and thriving planetary future. \n\nThese great challenges require us to:\n\nRedefine leadership such that it is a shared responsibility amongst all of us\nAccelerate the development of highly conscious leaders at every level of society\nRelate and organize with one another in new ways that supports collaboration at scale.\n\nIt is our belief that we must develop expanded leadership capacities required to navigate the complexity of the challenges we face today and lead regenerative, enduring change.\n\nInner Evolution - “As within, so without” - It is our belief that the outside world is a reflection of our inner world. As such, we believe that a leader’s awareness of their innermost selves is a critical variable in their capacity to effectively foster change within complex systems. Recognizing this, we need an expanded operating system for self-leadership\n\nRelational Intelligence - Transforming systems is ultimately about transforming relationships among people who shape those systems. This translates into how to communicate well, listen generously, and navigate conflict.\nCollective Leadership - creating the conditions that enable collective intelligence and wisdom to emerge in groups. e.g., how to share leadership in decentralized teams, collective visioning, collective presencing practices.\n\n“Pioneering the principles and personal practices that help us to perform these shifts may well be one of the most important undertakings of our time”. - Otto Scharmer. \n\nDespite the best intentions and efforts to create sustainable systems change, human and relational systems remain the most complex to navigate. The ethos of Web3 and the existence of Open Civics is a testament to the vast array of people interested in decentralized leadership and decision-making for good. \n\nWe will research, collate, and share existing open-source practices related to conscious self-leadership, relational intelligence, and group participation and collaboration to support the formation and sustainability of collaborative groups. \n\nWe will study patterns and create a field guide for conscious leadership development at the individual, relational, and collective levels to support systems change.\n\nBy mapping patterns, methods, and guidance for evolution and growth at all levels from the individual to groups to whole societies, we will help enable collaboration and decision-making so that civics can have the best environment for flourishing.\n"}
