Working at Pace
10/25/2017
Hi Andrew!Thanks for brining up a great issue. Being somewhat a productivity nerd myself at some point I observed what really made me go work at pace. My take on this is that despite Holacracy being a "super autonomous", "my domain" type of arrangement, it is basically community/collbaration base...
Unwanted role
10/25/2017
Hi Mikołaj,That's a great case. At some point I also dealt with a problem like that thought it was not Holacracy. What was done:- rotating the role- tying benefits with the task (role) (home office hours, cinema tickets mainly tokens of gratitude that someone did that to make the role more attrac...
Where in the constitution does it say meetings are time boxed?
10/26/2017
Hi all My interpretation is that they are timeboxed but based on the arrangement by the secretary who schedules the meetings. So the timebox is known in advance and should not be crossed. When there is no time cap it's fairly easy to relax the process during tension processing.We could always hav...

[@mention:449974511452179429], [@mention:455886150941203371]Thanks for your replies! It is a bit nuanced I really liked the notion of doing a governance which does not resolve the Tension of the proposer to be an NVGO. It seems to nail and enforce the purpose of doing governance.I do believe tha...

Chris Cowan posted:[@mention:564684143600201011] I wonder who has the right to dispose of a Domain though? I guess it would be the LL of the respective circle which own the domain or does it always goes back to the Anchor Circle (which might not have a LL if they are only Cross-Links there)?A) Do...

[@mention:455886150941203371], this is exactly what I was looking for! Thanks. So basically it all boils down to the LL of the Anchor Circle and later cascaded down with policies. I guess it is because of the legal environment/framework in which we operate and it's legit but I also wonder if peop...

Governance Process and Collective Intelligence
01/23/2018
Hi Jean-Luc,That's a very interesting point you bring. I would say yes and no. It's the Proposer's aim to resolve his Tension so (A) and he does not need to be very mindful of his ecology as the system assumes that all other members will be frank and will give objections when they sense the Propo...
