Status Updates From Beyond Sticky Notes: Doing ...

Very important comment about having decision makers in co-design teams and how more generally the people who make decisions are removed from design processes, requiring the thinking shared on a document for approval!

Taking time for listening, learning and curiosity is important. It's not a nice to have. I wonder how little this actually happens. Thinking wider about relationships and how they need to be nurtured.

Understanding systems is relational, not theoretical or academic. Yes!!!!

'Failed ideas make great compost '

'Sitting in the dark waiting for something to happen' - great quote about being in the grey and being with emergence

Part 1 is brilliant. Love the observation about selective listening - the org I work at does this all the time (and also doesn't know what people say). Love the myth busting section too, and those of power. The section on indigenous codesign is superb, and I would extend much of this thinking wider. Recognise i need to know more about trauma informed practice, but good to see strengths highlighted here

Love the exploration of power and privilege, beyond some of the more obvious areas. Also enjoying reflecting on my experience of the term 'lived experience' (already people use this to other people rather than include). The power of love is important. People look at me weird when i say love guides me at work but it's important. What do we care about and why?
