Blueprint of We

Collaboration Towards Mindful Relationships

The Blueprint of We is a powerful tool that can be utilized effectively for collective visioning in the context of bioregional sovereignty. The Blueprint of We is a framework developed by Lawrence and Marjory Susskind for collaboratively creating agreements and shared understandings among stakeholders. Here's how it can be applied to collective visioning:

Facilitating Dialogue: The Blueprint of We provides a structured approach to facilitate meaningful and inclusive dialogue among careholders. It helps create a safe space for participants to share their perspectives, aspirations, and concerns. Through guided conversations, careholders can explore their values, desires, and vision for the bioregion.

Co-Creating a Shared Vision: The Blueprint of We encourages careholders to collaboratively develop a shared vision for the bioregion. It facilitates the process of finding common ground and identifying shared goals and objectives. By using tools such as visioning exercises, careholders can collectively imagine and articulate a desired future state for the bioregion.

Building Alignment and Commitment: The Blueprint of We supports the process of building alignment and commitment among careholders. It helps identify areas of agreement, potential areas of tension, and areas that require further discussion or negotiation. By engaging in dialogue and collaborative decision-making, careholders can co-create a vision that reflects their collective values and aspirations.

Creating Action Plans: The Blueprint of We guides the development of action plans to turn the shared vision into tangible outcomes. It helps careholders identify specific strategies, projects, and initiatives that will contribute to realizing the vision. Through collaborative action planning, stakeholders can allocate resources, define roles and responsibilities, and establish a timeline for implementation.

Establishing Accountability and Evaluation: The Blueprint of We emphasizes the importance of accountability and evaluation. It encourages careholders to define metrics and indicators that will track progress towards the vision. Regular check-ins and reviews ensure that actions are aligned with the shared vision and allow for adjustments as needed.

By utilizing the Blueprint of We, careholders can engage in a structured and collaborative process of collective visioning. It provides a framework for effective communication, consensus-building, and action planning, enabling stakeholders to develop a shared vision for bioregional sovereignty that reflects their collective aspirations and values.
