Collective Intelligence

“I have two mental maps. When I am ego centered I seek to act upon others. When I transcend my ego I seek to act with others. The first view focuses on the part. The second view focuses on the whole. When I become humble, curious, and open, others tend to join me in authentic conversation. Collective intelligence increases and learning accelerates. The whole then has power to do things the parts cannot do. When I am an integrated part of a purposive and energized whole, I tend to become more than I thought I could be and I realize that I am doing what I was meant to be doing.” – The Positive Organization
