“Basecamp is giving me the ropes to feel ok staying close to the edge.” “Mindfulness is necessary but not sufficient in itself, there can be toxic cultures. When it also includes compassion and kindness this can help us address diversity and power issues.” “The question is a pebble dropped, then connections emerge. We don’t get these insights if we just explore the rational inquiry.” “This is not navel gazing it’s about valuing what we do, our passions and visions enough to give them space.”
Angela Green then asked the group to contribute to her poster, a graphic design explaining the Co-Creation Network to be displayed as part of the Jönköping Microsystem Festival 2015. A ‘world café’ was set up to answer three questions posed by Göran Henriks, Chief Executive of Learning and Innovation at Qulturum, home of the Microsystem Festival. After moving hosts, the new virtual platform for the Co-Creation Network was introduced, giving the Communities an online world in which they are able to share, learn and grow together. Then came an energetic and lively session where the Communities held the floor, allowed space and time to discuss and shape their future together. Newer members of the Co-Creation Network had the chance to talk with facilitators and core Community members to find best fit aligned with their ideals, and the Support team members (including the Future Considerations team) were on hand to offer their suggestions. A final check in session took place to galvanise the afternoon’s conversations, followed by a final mindfulness practice and reflection led by Jules Fell to bring the day to a close.
