Transparency - S3

This is my third of seven posts of the principles of Sociocracy 3.0, if you want to know more please talk to me or visit the Sociocracy 3.0 homepage

The previous post can be found here:

Comic without words, panel 1. Three figures build a catapult in front of a high wall.

Panel 2. They keep building the catapult.

Panel 3. The catapult throws a figure towards the wall.

Panel 4. The figure lands on the wall and sees another team on the other side building the same catapult. It shouts: “How come we are building the same parts of the catapult?” Someone in the other team: “Are we!? I didn’t know.”

Text panel: “The principle of transparency: Record all information that is valuable for the organization, and make it accessible to everyone in the organization, unless there is a reason for confidentiality, so that everyone has the information they need to understand how to do their work in a way that contributes most effectively to the whole.”

Icon: a figure looking through a magnifying glass.

Consent - S3

This is my second of seven posts of the principles of Sociocracy 3.0, if you want to know more please talk to me or visit the Sociocracy 3.0 homepage

A good example on how to use consent decision making - the pattern highly related to the principle can be seen in this video.

The previous post on the principles can be found here:

Comic, panel 1. A soldier peeks into a tent where a general with epaulettes draws a “War strategy”: “Excuse me sir?” The general: “Shhhhhh!”

Panel 2. The soldier: “But sir there....” The general: “I said be quiet I’m setting a strategy to win the war!” The soldier: “But sir...”

Panel 3. The general roars: “Get out!!!”

Panel 4. The general pushes the soldier out: “And stay out!” Outside, purple slugs are attacking and soldiers flee. The general: “What is this!” The soldier: “I was trying to say sir. We are under attack!”

Panel 5. The general lies in a trail of slime: “Yuk” Caption: “Remember sometimes the potential for learning is not as imediate or obvious, but the feeling of navigating in slime is the tell tail.”

Text panel: “The principle of consent: Raise, seek out and resolve objections to decisions and actions, so that you can reduce the potential for undesirable consequences and discover worthwhile ways to improve.”

Icon: a thumbs up.

Equivalence - S3

This is my first my of seven posts of the seven principles of Sociocracy 3.0, if you want to know more please talk to me or visit the Sociocracy 3.0 homepage

Comic, panel 1. A figure looks at a folded grey bundle: “What’s that?” Another: “It’s something I do on my spare time, a self inflating bridge.” The first: “Cool.” A voice: “Times up! Back to work!”

Panel 2. A king on a litter, guarded by soldiers, shouts: “Continue! We must fill the hole so that we can reach our goal!” Figures jump into a pit full of spikes. On the other side, a sign points to “Treasure”.

Text panel: “The principle of equivalence: Involve people in making and evolving decisions that affect them, so that you increase engagement and accountability, and make use of the distributed intelligence toward achieving and evolving your objectives.”

Icon: two figures with speech bubbles, balanced on a seesaw.
