Seems we are all constantly in collective leadership, condemned to it as it where, and often doing anything we can to avoid this fate...lest we see and are seen as our folly and our glory in it. I will have to reflect more on this, but I sense from my experience so far, many of our collective spaces formalized into organizations become easy places to hide, rather then hone the leadership we carry, too often in our shadow bag.

So to me, following your beautiful invitation Ashely, I come to this circle to witness, and the act of witnessing now, is hosting myself into that sense of responsibility that comes so easy when I hear the calling to be with and of this circle we each are born into, call it earth or humanity or...? no matter, its the act of seeing and listening into meaningful and deep callings, like this question.That is passion at the center of responsibility for sure. Riffing on this, tonight I have no opinion, only song...ears and a keen sense of the leadership in our collective shadow. I wonder if my question would nt now be, "What is leadership have we keep in our collective shadow that we now need to call into the center"....

Hello,

I'm curious... What is important when inviting a group into collective leadership? What first comes to your mind as being of essence when creating such a field of practice and a structure for action? Maybe a principle comes to mind, specific practices, resources that have good ideas, your cherished opinions... I'm interested in what pops up first!

With much gratitude,
Ashley
