How do sub-circles "talk" to each other
Hello Holacracy Hivemind! We are in an exciting time where our Main Circle has split into Dev, Rev Ops and Customer Happiness. We understand the function and accountabilities of the Rep Link for these new sub-circles to the main circle. What we can't figure out is how these 3 sub-circles communic...

Rep Link Role
Greetings, Is it possible for a Rep Link from multiple sub-circles to be the same person? I can't seem to find anything that forbids it, yet it seems like a conflict of interest. How can a member champion the interests of multiple sub-circles when they could be competing? Any clarity is greatly a...

Holacracy in Distributed Teams?
[@mention:471931473830882854] I agree... although we've not had that opportunity...yet. So many subtle cues from body language are missed from video. How many in-person meetings has your team been able to have? What was the difference?

Holacracy in Distributed Teams?
[@mention:523162737680436711] Thanks for your reply.As a 100% distributed team in 8 time zones, we use lots of great tools for communication and running meetings including Slack and Zoom. I should have been clearer. I meant connecting to others external to us to share best practices or pains that...

Holacracy in Distributed Teams?
Hi [@mention:491073019777409299] Brandon, We do a lot of the "heavy lifting" in Async through Slack, Asana or video snippets so we can discuss a topic generally. Raising a Tension is done either in the meeting during agenda creation or Async through a "governance out of meeting" process. It seems...

(...) offering feedback to enhance fit (...)
[@mention:519784817122741229] I'd say it's about the same thing... on the surface. With "giving" there is a subtle implication that it should be taken. When one offers something it doesn't feel like it needs to be taken. That's my 2 cents.

Holacracy in Distributed Teams?
Great question [@mention:562150194299319857] . We have a process, but I'd say its a work in progress. Part of the onboarding process is a whole section of readings, videos, articles, gifs etc. We also have the new hires sit as observers in both meetings at the first 8 weeks. I then take time righ...

Rep Link Role
You're right [@mention:523162737680436711] it's my tension ... based on absolutely nothing. This election has just happened, so I have no reason to insert my personal biases in this situation. Thank you for your clarity, I will work to stay in the moment and the let the Organization develop as it...

Deleting a circle
Hi [@mention:490932114704493598],Have you tried to "remove" that now empty circle from the super circle? The sub-circle after all is "just" a role in that super circle and can't be "self destructed" entirely under it's own steam. Hope that helps,Morgan

Time for asynchronous proposal.
We use 3 days and it works for us.We're an asynchronous team so 3 days gives us plenty of time to review. For us, the proposals are automatically pushed to that Circe's dedicated Slack channel. This means that if we have questions for clarity we can ask them in that channel right under the Glass ...
