A Collabrium colleague of ours is doing some pro-bono strategic planning for a self-sustaining farm for differently abled people. The farm is an amazing community of people with purpose and vision. Two Collabrium partners entered into a generative dialogue. We enter into these types of conversations often as colleagues in The Collabrium. Anyway, the conversation, in particular, focused on developing a process for co-creating a vision for the community (farm). The process we designed was based on visual arts. Our Collabrium partner plans to display various postcard-sized visual images on a table in the center of the room. She will then ask each community member to select one or two images that best represent the organization’s future. The intent is to distill the hopes and dreams of the community into one unified, motivating, future-focused vision statement. We sense that the process and outcome will be personal, visual, inspiring, and awesome. We encourage you as a leader to be creative and use visual art, story, and theatre to create meaningful, memorable, and high-impact change interventions.
