Group-Self Awareness & Collective-Alignment? 🧲

 (this post can be read as one of three parts. Read the whole thing here)

Another frame on what we're doing: How do groups become more group-self aware? What are we blind to, what interactions do we enforce/exclude, how do we update, what do we defend, what can we let go of? What external incentives corrupt our purpose? What larger motives are our collectives already serving (and do we want to be?)? What happens when we look at the self as the product of relating, rather than the cause?

I believe these inquiries require different methods than becoming more conscious individually. Flow sessions in particular offer us a chance to actively inquire into our collective unconscious. The quirky and minimalist structure of Flow is uniquely suited for learning how to get autonomous beings to act together while maintaining unique points of view, leadership-through-being without demanding a shared ideology or prescribed set of rules.

This opens the door for looking differently at collective alignment, which I think we need to get better at to address the biggest problems facing humans today.
