By Margaret Wheatley
There is no power
greater than a community discovering what it cares about.
Ask: “What’s
possible?” not “What’s wrong?” Keep asking.
Notice what you care
about. Assume that many others share your dreams.
Be brave enough to
start a conversation that matters.
Talk to people you
know. Talk to people you don’t know. Talk to people you never talk to.
Be intrigued by the
differences you hear. Expect to be surprised. Treasure curiosity more than
certainty.
Invite in everybody
who cares to work on what’s possible.
Acknowledge that
everyone is an expert about something.
Know that creative
solutions come from new connections.
Remember, you don’t
fear people whose story you know.
Real listening always
brings people closer together.
Trust that meaningful
conversations can change your world.
Rely on human
goodness. Stay together.
