self-and-identity

Each organism maintains a clear sense of its individual identity within a larger network of relationships that helps shape its identity.
PA_LEADERSHIPANDTHENEWSCIENCE-RC-024
We need to be experimenting with thinking processes that are open, nonlinear, messy, relational—processes that better suit our neural netlike brains.
PA_LEADERSHIPANDTHENEWSCIENCE-RC-084

work-as-meaning

To stay viable, open systems maintain a state of non-equilibrium, keeping themselves off balance so that the system can change and grow.
PA_LEADERSHIPANDTHENEWSCIENCE-RC-063
Healthy processes create better relationships among us, more clarity about who we are, and more information about what's going on around us.

obedience-and-authority

We have even come to think of power as a bounded resource, defined as 'my share of the pie.' These omnipresent boundaries create a strong sense of solidity.
PA_LEADERSHIPANDTHENEWSCIENCE-RC-031
All living beings create themselves and then use that 'self' to filter new information. The self is not a selfish individual—it includes awareness of others it must relate to.
