Participating in a Sphere

Spheres shift the conversation from one-on-one conversations in the Online Connectors to group dialogue around a shared area of expertise. Members draw on the group’s pooled knowledge, experience, resources and relationships to explore priorities, solve problems and develop possibilities together over time.

Relationships and concrete opportunities lead the work.

Sphere meetings are interactive, held on Zoom and generally last 90 minutes. They are open to Members who prioritize one Sphere for continuity and contribute to others when their experience is relevant.

No preparation or additional work is expected. Participants may choose to collaborate when they identify something practical that supports their priorities.
