20:00:02 | KalGone | squad level, patrol (boy scouts) level |
20:00:08 | Lucifer | OK, official chat starts now |
20:00:12 | hkhenson | I have to go for a walk, bb in a bit |
20:00:14 | Mermaid | insecurity/strife etc |
20:00:20 | Lucifer | The question at hand is to schism or not to schism |
20:00:20 | KalGone | alright, I gotta run off to help shanna clip her cat |
20:00:21 | hermit | The "100" limit" implies a two level system, with 7 groups of 8 reporting up one level |
20:00:39 | hermit | * hermit nods |
20:00:49 | hermit | 1 leader, 7 subordinates. |
20:01:06 | hermit | Lots of military and training studies confirm this. |
20:01:10 | Shadow | what about those people who don't want to play this schism game? |
20:01:11 | Mermaid | no schism |
20:01:12 | KalGone | 1 uberleader, 7 subordinate leaders |
20:01:28 | Lucifer | Let's look at pros and cons first |
20:02:02 | hermit | One foundation. Goals, Sins, Virtues. |
20:02:10 | hermit | Many "perspectives" |
20:02:39 | hermit | Allowing one to address multiple target audiences with minimum dissonance. |
20:02:47 | Ophis | con: you endup with a diluted message |
20:02:54 | Lucifer | I like to distinguish between an organization's vision and mission |
20:02:55 | Mermaid | Lucifer: a person should not held hostage by his affiliation wrt his opinions..political or otherwise |
20:03:08 | Lucifer | The vision is the desirable future state of the world, the end goal |
20:03:12 | Mermaid | bad sentence..you get the idea |
20:03:20 | Lucifer | A mission is a plan on how to get from here to there |
20:03:28 | hermit | Mermaid, a person may well be a member of multiple groups simultaneously. |
20:03:45 | Lucifer | Organizations with different missions can collaborate if they have the same vision, I suggest |
20:03:52 | hermit | Part of the implementation detail. |
20:04:14 | Lucifer | Organizations with different visions may come into conflict if the visions are inconsistent with each other |
20:04:16 | Mermaid | a divided group is weaker |
20:04:38 | hermit | Mermaid, a group at war with itself is very unattractive |
