The Holacratic Experience Top 12:
  • Harnesses the consciousness of every single person
  • Changes relationship to power ~ now, everyone has power to voice a tension
  • Is a tension driven system, letting reality pull issues through & change system
  • Gives everyone a voice, in a rapid, purpose-driven process
  • Makes a group of people smarter through collective intelligence
  • Senses & responds to the present moment vs trying to plan & predict the future
  • Shifts from a hierarchy of people to a holarchy of people
  • Is applied authentic communications and mindfulness practice
  • Distributes leadership ~ there is no longer someone at the top or above you
  • Tensions are seen as productive and useful for driving things forward
  • No one decides the structure; a structure emerges by processing tensions
  • It’s not just another way of structure, it’s a leap to a whole new way of being

About Samsara House 2023

 "Samsara House 2023" at 36 R Street NW is an Awareness-based shared space where world-shifting communities are meshworked to experience and spread what's emerging.  Samsara House 2023 rapidly prototypes models for the new world to ignite a revolution in consciousness within ten years.
Samsara House 2023’s strategy is to exemplify a gift-economy over the current market economy, one that values giving over having. While all events cost at least one dollar to cover utilities, any additional contribution will go towards periodically giving half back to a socially responsible organization or cause in need in the community that you also help identify. Going together as a river, we build a thriving community of communities and pave the way for a new world. Samsara House 2023 is a Holacracy powered organization founded by Cullen Kowalski at a row house in Bloomingdale, New Washington, D.C.

You never change things by fighting the existing reality.  To change something, build a new model that makes the existing model obsolete. ~ Buckminster Fuller
Be the change you wish to see in the world. ~ Gandhi
