The opportunity to explore the topic of The Practice of Diplomacy: Power Over, or Power With? through panel discussions and experiential breakout groups made for a highly intellectually stimulating and thrilling day.

One of the basic assumptions of ComplexitySalon is that we are always and already interdependent. We are so because we need each other for love, respect, recognition and inclusion. So to be interdependent with others constitutes a set of power relationships, which both constrain and enable.

When systems get complex, working alone feels efficient. Decisive. Clean. Controlled. After all, the problems are always with other people.. right?
