Human conversation is the ground of culture. Transforming the collective means transforming how we make sense together in conversation. The practice of emergent dialogue evolves our collective capacity for sense making. Transcending and including our individuality, the practice catalyzes a Co-Conscious We that awakens us to a living field of consciousness between us. As we deepen our engagement with this field, the space between us comes alive with a synergetic intelligence that makes possible a new integration of perspectives, ideas, polarities, and awareness–in sum, it’s a new collective sense-making. emergent dialogue is not a theory or a map: the practice enables groups to forge new creative capacities in consciousness.
In this workshop, we take a first step with the practice, focusing on the emergence of coherence. By sensing into the living intersubjective field, it becomes increasingly conscious between us. This coherence makes possible the emergence of co-conscious creativity and intersubjective sense-making. Through a series of exercises, we will sense into what is between us and engage in small groups. We will end the workshop with reflection, questions, and a discussion of philosophical and developmental implications of this work.
