Synergy
working together ...
Many people are conditioned to work in a hierarchy.
This means that one person tells others what to do...
This is based on the role model of adult-child; or master-slave.
This is a very limited way of working together:

This is a very limited way of working together:
- in a hierarchy, the limitations of one person affects all others ...
Synergy is based on working together,
like cells in our body: each autonomous, yet all connected
Like our body cells, all people are part of the same organism.
When people work in this organic way, more comes out than foreseen.
- this is the principle of creation: bringing out the unknown
This Blog offers examples of synergy projects.
You are welcome to add your own.

An example of Synergy is found in the work of Bill Dunster, architect.
He designed a method for design of housing, which requires no energy. This has led to a House Kit: people can build their own house - with the help of some friends.
In making the kit many people worked together: woodwork, metal fixtures, apppliances which already existed could be redesigned to form parts on one integral unit, as a result they could work better, by working together.
