Blue Sky Projects endeavours to be embedded within and in service to an emerging network of collaborators.
A network of collaborators: inspired by Enspiral and Crisp we are creating a network of collaborators with the intention to create a shared home base for our work in the world. This is a space to enable greater professional services collaborations across disciplines, find camaraderie and mutual support, and incubate meaningful new entrepreneurial ventures. Below are a few fantastic graphics from Enspiral that help to illustrate their model.
The goal is harmony: inspired by Robert Gilman's concept of the three harmonies, the shared goal of our meaningful work together is to create greater harmony everywhere, with emphasis on creating harmony (1) within ourselves, (2) with others, and (3) with nature. Within each of these domains there are many areas of specialized work that together form a wholistic approach to fostering greater harmony in the world. Some examples include:
Learning and personal development: within the network we organize collaboratively led spaces for mutual support and personal development, including:
Workshops and practice groups for learning new skills and awarenesses
Coaching circles for mutual support and deepening relationships
Incubation of new entrepreneurial ventures through financial and coaching support
Retreats for members as spaces to come together, build relationships, and explore ideas
Hub: maybe someday we'll have a multi-purpose physical space in which to gather and collaborate... but for now we are a digitally-based collective with occasional in-person gatherings.
