Building a project or an organization over the long term requires particular attention to thinking and organizing our « doing together ».
In our eyes, the term governance refers to the rules of the Game of this « doing together », and in particular to the way in which power is exercised and distributed.
It's a vast, complex subject which, from our point of view, has no miracle solution in a specific model or universal methods.
What's important to us is the path of individual and collective transformation that these methods offer, rather than the methods themselves.
So, we're not talking about truths or recipes to be applied, but rather about intentions that each and every one of us is invited to reflect on and move forward with.
Re-inventing Faire Ensemble
Horizontality
Here, we cultivate our equivalence to power, our ability to decide and act together on key organizational issues. For example, we define our relational rules, our operating rules and take care of our links : creating We.
Equivalence - Collective - Cooperation - Collective decision-making
Verticality
Here we cultivate our sovereignty, our ability to assume and exercise responsibilities, in the service of the common project and in autonomy. We define perimeters of authority in which roles make decisions alone or in small groups, inviting creativity and efficiency.
Sovereignty - Leadership - Responsibility - Autonomy
Depth
Here we cultivate our authenticity, our ability to share what's really going on inside us, by striving to identify our conditioning, our masks, in order to overcome them. Individual emotions and intuitions are elements that can nourish the collective. This depth can be expressed, for example, through sensitive, artistic, meditative, spiritual, political and/or poetic approaches.
