199: In Brilliant Conversation with Steve Morris

58 minutes

Steve Morris is on a mission to help organizations and their leaders rise to their potential to live and work wholeheartedly, all while making a positive impact on the world. We last spoke in episode 173 on Beautiful Questions for Challenging Times, which many of you gave us great feedback on—thank you!

Today we’re taking a page out of the Co-Active Training Institute’s playbook on Brilliant Conversations, the context for their recent open Zoom call. As CTI defines it, a Brilliant Conversation has the following qualities:

Larger than how we hold a regular conversation

Intentional conversation where there is no answer, no destination, no problem to solve

Resist the temptation to converge; allow ourselves to expand, to explore, and to play

Place and a space where contributions come from ideas, emotions, intuitive hits or spirit or strategy—we use all of us as a resource and our entire field to contribute.

Divergent nature, where as so many conversations aim to converge

Call upon on our “brilliant mind” or collective consciousness. We create a brilliant mind together, rather than a singular mind.

The process is organic and flowing, much like polishing a brilliant diamond.

You leave with more questions than you had when you came

We tap into a larger mystery and unfolding that is playing out around us

You are attuned to what life then starts offering you back as you walk the world with these questions in your heart, spirit, and mind

I hope you enjoy this unfolding, wandering, improvised, in-the-moment conversation with Steve! Be sure to also check out his free Care Package for COVID-19.
