People: Meg WheatleyDespite current ads and slogans, the world doesn’t change one person at a time.
It changes when networks of relationships form among people who share a common cause and vision of what’s possible.
This is good news for those of us intent on creating a positive future.
Rather than worry about critical mass, our work is to foster critical connections.
We don’t need to convince large numbers of people to change; instead, we need to connect with kindred spirits.
Through these relationships, we will develop the new knowledge, practices, courage and commitment that lead to broad-based change.
