The Physical SpaceA mental space where we belong and where we
are encouraged to experiment
The Relational SpaceThe people who are here are the right people
The Tacit & Spiritual Space What is it that wants to emerge here?
Nonaka, Toyama, Scharmer (undated)
The Swan
“like the swan,When he nervously lets himself down into the water,
Which receives him gailyAnd which flows joyfully under
And after him, wave after wave,While the swan,
Unmoving and marvellously calm,Is pleased to be carried, each moment more fully grown,
More like a king, further and further on.”
Rainer Marie RilkeTranslated by Robert Bly
