Emotional Intelligence Reprise

This is about my 5th year of hosting communities that connect through the term Emotional Intelligence. This has various synonyms incuding emotional literacy. One way to start looking at EI is to list all the positive emotional flows:
trust, courage, openness, love of context, fun, joy of experiential learning
...
that energise either great individual contributions, great team, network or communal contributions of great organisational contributions - productivity's first 3 value multipiers integrated by valuetrue 1 2 audited systems of organisation

Ultimately all human systems, being tensely connected relationships of productivity and purpose, degarde unless trust-flow (or another synonym for how all positice ei flows connect human service) is transapernctly audited and focused around the deepest contextual purpose or gravity the organisation can be inspired to lead. The failure of global accountants and other measurement professions to do this audit has been studied 2000 as Unseen Wealth 1 2 research. It is forecast to compound exponential risks which at a global scale will end sustainability of all of us

So EI is a quite important inter-discipline. But like many interdisciplines, I find one of the simplest ways to get passionately into exploring it further is to review some puzzling comments until at least one rings true with you; at that stage let go of what all conventional organsiational wisdom around you says (at least for a few min utes reflection), explore the EI lead, it may just connect you with one of the greatest innovation plays you are capable of making. Back in 1997 I hosted a year long egroup on organinsing creativity. Circulation protocols were done by hand. Our biggest learning was that the largest 20th century corporations had come to actualise organising and creativy as being in conflict with each other. This is quite a warning and yet it laso shows why many of the most fascinating leadership subjects of this decade juxtapose somewaht odd couple words which I assume was Daniel Goleman's point in being one of the strongest champions of this quest for knowledge

Extract from here on Frithjof Bergmann & New Work
According to philosopher and community catalyst Frithjof Bergmann, we are less free than we think, surrounded as we are by endless trivial choices. We will only really be free when we have the option of doing things with our lives that we care deeply about.
The current job crisis, in which thousands find themselves unable to work in their fields, is forcing many people to reconsider what they want to do with their lives. Frithjof Bergmann started New Work to encourage that exploration at the deepest levels and to teach the skills that will enable people to make their dreams a reality. If many people were empowered to make these kinds of choices, the ripple effects would be felt throughout the culture.

S.B. writes to Community of Bridge-Building
(This is how) I am as a bridge-builder. I love to help people help each other get from one place to another, metaphorically speaking. However, that means for me to have credibility with those whom I am collaborating in client - consultant relationships I have one foot planted where they are and the other where they might go. Sometimes I get overly attached where I am and don't pay attention as I should to where the world is going so I keep in step. Here's where I'm appealing to you to coach me. Ask questions, share your points of view, present the conundrums associated with changing conditions where learning is most likely to occur and I will do my best to get into it. Again, though, I come back to who I am and what my role is--bridge-builder--I like to influence the "system" to make things happen that adds value to people by heightening their sense of relationship and enriches their quality of life.

Back in 1984 we (DoD nets since 1984, ER) predicted that many communications/valuation crises were going to hit the world at the same time as a consequence of the www. The most critical decade for sustainability of our species was billed as 2005-2015. The mother of all professional crises started with changing economics from governance by:
scarcity's transactional analysis to integrating wherever possible abundance system (sustainability exponential) mapmaking

Achieving this requires connecting together 200 years of understandings that have emerged from entrepreneurial practices (elevating higher order social/communal exchanges by taking back assets that had ended up being manipulated only for one side's gain)

Understanding the implications of this is not complex but its simplicity is extremely contextual

you can for example ask teachers of 9 year olds up to discover who was each local culture’s most future deep transforming leader as well as good neighbour to any other community that locality ultimately traded with http://er100.blogspot.com - nominations, co-editors welcome

you have to jettison quarterly accounting and spreadsheeting in favour of deeper leadership governance; compounding a contextual (deeply humanly gravitated) mission is necessary (though not sufficient) requirement to lead everyone that networks around you to change from scarcity economics to sustaining abundance economics; a mission can thrive around big hairy gaols; unless the measure most relevant to a BHAG or the compound purpose of a network overtrumps all other standardised metrics (and most especially backward quarterising one) then your purpose will be cut audit quarter by quarter

All 200 years of Entrepreneurial Revolution research converging on transparency mapping of what's the exponential are we systemically spinning around here; AND MORE how does this map in terms of net working’s molecular interactions:
MICRO at deeper micro detail,
INTER zoom across network interfaces,
MACRO up to macro-globalisation crises : such as climate change (discover photosynthesis abundant clean energy) , make poverty/terror history, turn round national investments in arms, new action learning curricula connecting children of all ages and across all of a peer group's races...

20th c national governments and global corporations have precisely the wrong governance systems for changing the world from scarcity to abundance; from valuing only money to every longer run investment people's lifetime exponentials make starting with good health and open learning flows around deeply meaningful contexts; moving across borders without fear and in the spirit of wanting to exchange goodwill; ... so it is at this time period 2005-2015 that the great civil-society organisation, meta-networks like Make Poverty History across the world's poorest continent, and the world's greatest philanthropists will be tested; will those who lead at the epicentres of such networking systems compound the highest trust between all the peoples they wave through; and to do that will they systemise wholly new form of governance A B C interfacing 10-win molecules would be sufficient according to the first 200 years of entrepreneurial testimonies and exemplars from Gandhi down

Charter for social entrepreneurs and citizens organisations/networks they sustain 1 GOVERNANCE

1 Governance Structure of A*B*C:
A)Sustainability*B)Transparency*C)Gravity of True Purpose

Q1 Is it possible to govern the A*B*C of the local and global networks of civil society without this molecular structure? Molecule designed for mapping resolutions at macro, micro and inter-network (boundary interfacing) : assumes we want to openly and wholly ensure as many as 10 coordinates all win from revolving hi-trust relationships with each other through time, as well as interact sustainably with any other civil system governed openly to value sustainability*transparency*gravitational flows around deep human purpose

QI1 Suppose a representative of a local community with a life critical need makes contact with a CS network, and ASKS: "is there any experience you know of where a community has developed a solution to a crisis that matches the one we are in"?
Why can this be such a tough test for a CS net to reliably answer?... click

INPUT value multipliers	S	OUTPUT value multipliers
Individual	U	My life's work
Communities, nets of people	S	Customers Rights
Singular Org System	T	Owners Rights
Global Business partners	A	Best for world sector vision
Every Local Society	I	Each society's critical needs
exponentials compound	N	10-win or 10-lose

If goodwill's molecular structure is measured in a purposefully connecting manner through time it flows so that ten human relationship energisers win from being contextually systemised around each other; and interacts both with optimising mixes of collaboration and competition wherever hi-trust molecular systems are mapped. We will need to value not just money but learning, joy of making a difference in serving other people, a love of cross-cultural diversity and context depth, always openly minimising risk to life and nature's own value flows. In particular, we cannot afford lost trasnparency at boundaries or speculators who want to extract from a system whatever the future consequences are for those who are left chained to it. All the above can be proven matematically, but what's simpler for those of us who are now placing our belief in citizens organisations, projects for humanity and mentors who have demonstarted lifetime commitment in critical social entrepreneur arenas is to find a few questions which we expect to be able to test out on any citizen organsiation to see if it responds in a way that has no conflicts and is intentioanlly as true to one another as people can be. As globalisation and networks compounded since 1984, organisations that were once separate in terms of systems spinning life or death trajectories.

governance: construction vocabulary and critical modes of interrogation (primary experimenters with this methodology involve main branches of the family tree of entrepreneurial revolution, in particular intrapreneurs (the first entrepreneurial family specifically top call for service economics designed round investing in people above investing in machines) and social entrepreneurs whose beliefs in conflict resolution needed to systemise triangular governance (eg 1 2)- which inclued context up and inter-networking as well as top down - appears to be fundamental to the emergence of citizen organisation and civil society

A) Exponential sustainability over time –ie growth which is to everyone’s advantage and prevention of conflicts that might turn the system spiralling viciously against one or more sides

B) Transparency across networks of SE organisations – maximising collaboration which is essential because as a project solution franchise that openly extends through localities of needs civil society organisations need to be benchmarks for collaboration

C) Gravitation of volunteer and other human energies flowing around trust that advances our deepest purpose and relentlessly sustains all the other positive servant leaders energies of persistence, courage, conflict busting, inspiring morale of others

We can help install an audit using this structure to ensure that any SE is compounding its deepest purpose. Another way to look at this is to ask probing questions to see if any SE is operationally serving wins between all these sides. Here are some questions

Q1.1 What are the the biggest questions that each coordinate can voice to ensue that the human relationship system will sustain its priorities as 10-win with everyone else’s priorities

Here's a quick tour of 22 years of debates that have made me ever more curious and passionate about understanding what civic society organisations can do and mediate in a networking world as a wholly different human relations system than better known 20th Century organisational types.

Back in 1984 these future history scripts 1 2 (ask for more) were developed around the up revolutionary phenomena that we called "death of distance" networking and the compound consequences for sustaining the human race through a global village economy. (Clearly other terminology can be webbed in today including "world is flat", globalization ...)

Future history models require economic journalists (and other journalists or celebrities for humanity) to prioritise these questions:
what megatrends are already environmentally in motion somewhere? where is that future happening? what advance warning signals can we all learn from that? who's the most disconnected peoples who will be put most at risk if we fail to ensure they get the earliest of warnings and support in systemising sustainability's changemaking

In particular, what organisational systems (are becoming so conflicted) that they will need to die peacefully and how do we support all peoples impacted to evolve just in time to a more innovative and harmonious system.

In 1984, we timelined various systems that were dying:
1984-1989 Soviet Union; end of incompatible computers , inter-networking version 0
1989-1994 Cold war after impacts anywhere; over-investment by big nations of their people's monies in arms and warfare; inter-networking version 1 starts to raise questions on children’s education revolutions etc
1994-1999 End of people believing in either extreme communism or extreme capitalism; inter-networking version 2 starts to raise questions on how to connect the best of new and old media to smarten everyone up not to socially control and addict people
2000-2004 End of Addiction to Petroleum Economics and review of other global industries that need 21st C reformation to be sustainable beginning with relicensing professions to raise their ethical standards and simple connectivity (instead of separation from each other)
2005-2014 - new organisational typologies and open global village debates will be needed to make global systemisation of poverty history in a way that has no cost to people who are already highly productive but connects all cultures in celebration of each other; the new treasure maps of collaboration gold and understanding worldwide waves (eg healthy, education, reconciliation of grassroots-up justice and adaptability to critical incidents) that sustain us if we collaborate and will end humanity if we only compete around them

The scripts were developed by teams of people including three of us who linked together open space debates:
myself a mathematician who had spent the first 15 years of my career exploring learning networks and helping to form one of the first databanks what societies in 30 countries demanded most life critically from multinational organisations

a doctor of biology who was also the most avid reader and writer of science fiction I ever expect to meet

my father a leading economic journalist known for his future history survey style and who saw our 1984 book on the first networking generation (1984-2024) as the final and most challenging component of a trilogy on entrepreneurial revolution whose first 2 parts had been published in The Economist:
1982 We are all Intrapreneurial Now -the revolution of true service economies where governance will need to invest in people relationships above and beyond machines and tangible capital's historic scorecards
1976 The Coming Entrepreneurial Revolution -more here on the family tree of Entrepreneurial Revolution which networks of Scots have been interested in since the 1840s when James Wilson founded The Economist as a school for question leadership transparency and revolutions such as: how do we ethically revolve from agrarian to industrial societies ; why is the British Empire so cruel that its Corn law monopoly has aggravated thousands of Irish deaths when the potato famine came and led to many stories of England sending up early global accountants to Scottish landlords of which my ancestor's story on the Isle of Arran is typical. Being told that sheep would be more profitable quarterly than people, the people of Arran spent the whole of Sunday walking to my Xtimes great grand father's church to discuss how to socially respond -sponsor our clans to go worldwide was the most constructive response which explains today why three out of 4 scots live outside Scotland.

GoodWillWars: I leave to this bottom line (well paragraph actually) the most vital purpose of future history debates. You do not need to believe each one's exact timeline but if we live in democracies we have no right to censor their discussion ahead of time, nor the relentless human discovery of life-critical future history themes. As defined above, a dying system of human relationships is one that has become so cancerously conflicted around trust-flow between different people groups that it cannot live on (at least without a revolutionary transformation). There is a vicious way that powerful people can try to keep a dying system alive. This is to be ever less transparent, to shred truth and fairness, to side with speculators against every other groups of people's compound interest in the future. When this happens, some of these speculators may make temporary gains while all other constituencies lose. However the consequences of compounding lost sustainability a re always hugely costly. Unfortunately in a networked world (which we define as connecting systems*systems*systems*...) speculative non-transparency brings "the whole house of cards down". Viewed from 2005, this happened for example with the dotcom implosion. Viewed from 1984, globalisation is indeed mankind's final examination in transparency mapmaking. By 2025 or thereabouts, all our lives will be compounding around either the most transparent networked world 6 billion beings were capable of designing or the least. The latter low road makes extinction of our species mathematically certain however inconvenient the truth, and however prolonged (eg probably to about 2099) the endgame for the last being on our planet.

Over the last 30 years my networks of friends (researchers of entreprenmeurial revolution, economists of the school founded by James Wilson in teh 1840s at The Economist, Death of Distance Futrure historians who view networks as the greatest communicatuons and transport revolution one generation or worlwide humanity 1984-2024 has ever confronted, various Beyond professional groups (such as Beyond-Branding, Beyond Knowledge Management, Beyond CSR, mathematicians and other system recocilitaion mapmakers ... Utellus a group that believes we need to log up new maps if every locality and culture is to embrace each other's sustainability through globalization) have become increasingly interested in opening space for iterative debaes around this kind of question and answer:
Q: Are the world's thousand largest organisations also the most trustworthy/sustainable systems that humanity can design? A: If not, can a reconciliation answer be discovered in a missing typology which we all need :

to provide simple examples in a transparently networked world of how much goodwill for all organisations as human relations systems can multiply sustainably,

to mediate across the systems of other organisational typologies until all the world's 1000 largest organsiations are most valued exponentially over time because they are most trusted and least conflicted with sustaining humanity thropugh all the global villages oof our world.

This leads us to two sorts of mapmaking questions

Can we colaboratively log up what sorts of civil society organisations diverse groups of people identify with worldwide and as locally as and global village network's sustainability needs be

Can we take a few outstanding examples from this survey of CS orgs that seem to be most interconnected with what the future of civic society can sustain- and map the transparency of human relations flow of each one so that everyone who needs to have collaborative access to chnaging the world's sustainability knows how to interface their goodwill intents with the model CS orgs

SOURCE: THE COMING WARS BETWEEN GOODWILL & BADWILL NETWORKS
In 2000, Unseen Wealth researchers amassed all the evidence needed to be clear that the world is being governed by a huge mathematical mistake: currently globalization is certain to make less and less of 6 billion beings' lifetime exponentials (the % of each of our lifetimes being spent at our experiential edge of making a difference). With the advent of the spreadheet, we have become boxed in by an accounting maths that it is perfect at separating. Whereas since 1976 network economics has clearly shown that all new entrepreneurial revolutions concerning the 1984-2024 death of distance generation depend exponentially on multiplying higher value mapped around ever greater transparency and trust-flow connectivity. Citizens organisations are likely to be the best chance of acting as network catalysts which rectify the mathematical apartheids of global professions, global corporations, top-down governments etc.

Q&A about World Social Furm

Born in 2001 - the WSF potentially connects more citizen groups than any other network. QAbout 2 million people have attended at elast one of the 3-day Socila Forums held in 20+ countries between 2001-2006. The main 2007 Forum is in Africa

here are some questions I have - please email me at chris.macrae@yahoo.co.uk if you either have a question to add on an answer

q1 who are the international council members (and are they the main organsiations responsible for structuring upcoming socila forums)

q2 how can the WSF coming to Africa help to improve worldwide understanding of what peoples organsiations are developing in africa -metaphor: its easy to find hotels in any African country, but how do we find citizens organsaitions

q3 how does the networking wherewithal of WSF conect with ots fpunders other major world achievment: advancing Beyond CSR (what Beyond CSR networks are there round the world that people interested in this development can connect to wherever tyhey are located). Does Beyond CSR have an International Coucil - if so who are its members

q4 similar to Q3, what connections are there with social entrepreneur networkd given that Grajew is a founding member of their world academy of 6 at ashoka

a to q1 international council members of WSF?

This appears to be a partial answer taken from this document; if you know of a more uptodate document or additions/subtractions please say; also please help me annotate those that are known to have originated in Africa or other reasons to be seen as pivotal coordinators of WSF2007

Say if you want us to link nominations we publish to your web, blog or other contact point Some typical quotes: source: citizen organisations are reshaping politics and economics both at the domestic and global levels," said Lester M. Salamon, the director of the Center for Civil Society Studies at Johns Hopkins University. "I believe they are as important a development to the latter part of the 20th century as the rise of the nation-state was at the end of the 19th century."

Suppose a representative of a local community with a life critical need makes contact with a CS network: is there any experience you know of where a community has developed a solution to a crisis that matches the one we are in. Why can this be such a tough test for a CS net to reliably answer? Let’s take this inquiry slowly 1 The representative of the desperate community may be taking quite a risk in reaching out, and the person she contacts may be a volunteer on the other side of the world from where the CS net was founded or where the most likely candidate solution was first discovered. 2 We’re talking about a very demanding test of the CS net’s internal communications. In network vocabulary: will relationship degrees of separation be brought down to almost zero so the question flows to whomever may be closest to the solution without putting anyone at risk as well as not getting diluted in terms of depicting the human urgency continued below...

3 Of course this assumes that the contextual specification of the crisis is complete which it is most unlikely to be without many iterations. Are the CSnet’s flows up to this sort of distributed and recursive prognosis?

4 It may be that a CSnet is most realistic if it has developed a culture that has reached even fringe volunteers that starts by not promising too much. Can we classify every such incoming emergency request as:
A) yes that is a core one our CS organisation is most likely in the world to have developed an answer to
B) that’s not us but we know a CS organisation who can
C) That’s one of the world’s as yet unresolved crisis problems

5 Metaphorically, think “medical triage”: what are some of the more detailed human relations flow and reasonings that may be involving ever increasingly passionate energies until we have truly clarified where we think we are at 4)? One level to consider is the volunteers in any worldwide CS network, who in terms of days of resource time may represent an order of magnitude more than those in the CS net who are employed. It can be hugely frustrating for a volunteer to locally encounter a community in life critical need but to get a slow or prevaricated global response by the CSnet in terms of: can we provide actionable help. We suggest that the CSnet that has not mapped through how it will deal with desperate inquiries gives all CSnets a bad name as far as volunteer turnover goes. One of the risks as civic society becomes the great hope of humanising globalisation is that we end up with 100 me-toos CSnets all of which do not have enough quality experience of network mapmaking to get much done. This is an ironic example of separation where the challenge of networks begins and ends every performance cycle with how well are we getting interconnected. Conversely, we do ask for perspective in these most fluid years of the emergence of what CS nets cross-culturally achieve around the world. It is worth recalling that at the beginning of 2005 thousands of highly resourced NGOs and governments (of a well intended sort but whose governance by traditional measures are mathematically opposite to the network flow we seek to map at http://civil-society.blogspot.com) advertised that they were going to make a major push at Making Poverty History, with a special focus on Africa. A year later so much more seemed to be falling apart in the world’s most desperate local communities than being resolved that Queen Elizabeth was driven to use her end of 2005 speech to the commonwealth to ask the question : Is humanity turning on itself? Top-down NGOs and governments however well intended are designed the opposite way round from the question we are contemplating. As long as CSnets know that’s part of the problem, they can value their own governance (and media and mediation needs) to flow the grassroots context sustaining ways streaming up that are opposite from standard quality processes trickling down.

6 In summary, what we would like the world of opinion leaders to reflect on is this. Responding to a question from a representative of one of the world’s local communities in most deepest humanitarian need may be as huge a challenge as cracking the atom or decoding the genome. Why is it in terms of progress of the human race we in the West tend to look up to rocket science challenges as those we want the world’s most educated youth to focus on and down on the world’s most critical local human reconciliation challenges? We will have made a start to turning puzzle around if now you have read this, you help us with suggestions on how to simplify the description of the puzzle 1-6 has made a quick guided tour round, or help us to log up real cases of how networks triage the prospective crises they are each most ready to bring civil society solutions to.

People worth googling with civic society include Drayton- origin of all social entrepreneur nets Bornstein -biographer of social entrepreneurs in civil society eigen- epicentre of advice on transparency for social entrepreneurial revolutions Gandhi -nominated as the 20th Century's number 1 leaders by such network opinion leaders as mathematicians (Einstein), entrepreneurs (Drayton and journalists for ER & ER100) Robinson- ex President of Ireland, founder of the first? Global Initiative network, a family tree that now includes branches such as clintonglobal which the Washington Post described as a leadership network designed to kill the UN with kindness Grajew -the Southern Hemisphere's most connecting person with responsibility movements for global industry sectors Yunus -founder of Grameen, epicentre of experience banked advice on microfinace Abed - founder of the world's largest people governed corporation omidyar-ebay founders and connectors of ebusiness foundations with microfinancing civil society Please tell us at wcbn007@easynet.co.uk : who you search civil society with or of your favourite quote. Say if you want us to link nominations we publish to your web, blog or other contact point Some typical quotes: source: citizen organisations are reshaping politics and economics both at the domestic and global levels," said Lester M. Salamon, the director of the Center for Civil Society Studies at Johns Hopkins University. "I believe they are as important a development to the latter part of the 20th century as the rise of the nation-state was at the end of the 19th century."

Suppose a representative of a local community with a life critical need makes contact with a CS network: is there any experience you know of where a community has developed a solution to a crisis that matches the one we are in. Why can this be such a tough test for a CS net to reliably answer? Let’s take this slowly 1 The representative of the desperate community may be taking quite a risk in reaching out, and the person she contacts may be a volunteer on the other side of the world from where the CS net was founded or where the most likely candidate solution was first discovered. continued below...

2 We’re talking about a very demanding test of the CS net’s internal communications. In network vocabulary: will relationship degrees of separation be brought down to almost zero so the question flows to whomever may be closest to the solution without putting anyone at risk as well as not getting diluted in terms of depicting the human urgency

3 Of course this assumes that the contextual specification of the crisis is complete which it is most unlikely to be without many iterations. Are the CSnet’s flows up to this sort of distributed and recursive prognosis?

4 It may be that a CSnet is most realistic if it has developed a culture that has reached even fringe volunteers that starts by not promising too much. Can we classify every such incoming emergency request as:
A) yes that is a core one our CS organisation is most likely in the world to have developed an answer to
B) that’s not us but we know a CS organisation who can
C) That’s one of the world’s as yet unresolved crisis problems

5 Metaphorically, think “medical triage”: what are some of the more detailed human relations flow and reasonings that may be involving ever increasingly passionate energies until we have truly clarified where we think we are at 4)? One level to consider is the volunteers in any worldwide CS network, who in terms of days of resource time may represent an order of magnitude more than those in the CS net who are employed. It can be hugely frustrating for a volunteer to locally encounter a community in life critical need but to get a slow or prevaricated global response by the CSnet in terms of: can we provide actionable help. We suggest that the CSnet that has not mapped through how it will deal with desperate inquiries gives all CSnets a bad name as far as volunteer turnover goes. One of the risks as civic society becomes the great hope of humanising globalisation is that we end up with 100 me-toos CSnets all of which do not have enough quality experience of network mapmaking to get much done. This is an ironic example of separation where the challenge of networks begins and ends every performance cycle with how well are we getting interconnected. Conversely, we do ask for perspective in these most fluid years of the emergence of what CS nets cross-culturally achieve around the world.
