An organising impulse that social groups form around, begins with a seed of potential. To work on this potential is this group's purpose that calls them in to the organising activity. By answering this call, they together form a collective body that springs to life in response. This purpose is the first mandate item.
Mandate¶
The following list outlines a mandate by which the social group self-identifies:
- Purpose
- Accountabilities
- Roles - the entity taking responsibility for the accountabilities, who can also delegate
- E.g. Tooling
- Domains
- Vision & Mission
- Vision: an image, enlivening
- Mission: milestones and outcomes
- Principles & Values (plus ways of working)
The most effective organising happens when coordination is shared.
