- Materials: A4 sheets, markers, post-it, scotch paper
TIME (min/max): between 95 and 150 minutes (1,5-2,5 h)
TARGET AUDIENCE: this tool is dedicated to groups who would like to dive deep into the work of developing the network at its foundations.
NUMBER OF PARTICIPANTS (recommended min/max): From 3 to 30
ORIGIN OF THE METHOD: Systemic tools for organisations
RELATION TO THE CLIPS MODEL AND OTHER METHODS
This method is related mainly to the Intention level but is rooted in the “I” level (individual intention), and in the “Community” level (common goals). The “structure” level needs to come at the decision-making process to set common actions.
OTHER REMARKS - FROM FACILITATOR TO FACILITATOR
This work can be preparatory to the creation of a "Field of Forces" by drawing the ideal present from vision and mission.
The music and the accompaniment of the facilitator are very important to support the emergence of messages coming from the systemic field.
