RAW Conversations™ Basics

Most conversations in organizations happen AT people rather than WITH the living system itself. This foundational training shifts your conversational approach from addressing individuals to engaging with system intelligence directly. Learn to recognize when you're in dialogue with a living, breathing organizational entity that has its own voice, patterns, and wisdom. Develop the essential stance of following system intelligence rather than imposing your conversational agenda, and master maintaining whole-system awareness during any interaction.‍
