WARMER VOICES

Warmer Voices is a different practice. It is different in design, cadence, content, and intent.

We are so habituated to intellectual discourse that we neglect some of the richest information available - warm data.

The Prometheus ethic is pro-intellectual and pro-achievement….but these perspectives are not sufficient for effective leadership.

Warmer Voices Experiences. A Warmer Voices experience is a loose structure where we meet as ourselves and find what is routinely missed or misconstrued. The action is less introspection and more opening and extension. The structure is simple - the rhythms of reframing, noticing and responding.

Are there rules/principles?

  • There is no prepared content – you are the content.

  • Give space, share space, hold space, open space.

  • Open the next door and try the adjacent doors (AKA, look where the light shows you, and look differently).

  • Demonstrate civil candor and embody first-person authenticity.

  • Difference is information and information is transforming.

  • There is no consensus or conclusion intended, those are useful elsewhere but deflections and distractions here.

  • Tend to the seeds that may linger and intersections that you did not see.
