Partnerships are Living Systems

While studying leadership at the Buddhist, Naropa University, it became clear to me that human relationships operate under the same principles as living systems. Like the Earth, or our bodies, for example.

In the MatrixWorks Leadership framework: Diverse parts make up coherent wholes at every level of scale. All of which are in dynamic relationships that continually self-organize and self-create. To Serve Life. The more we are aware of this, the more brilliant our lives, relationships and and the world around us will be.

It’s in our Enlightened Self Interest, as Terry Real, founder of Relational Life Therapy, teaches, to want our partners to be happy. Our relationship is our biosphere, he says. ‘If I pollute the air in one area, I’ll be breathing it in in another.’

What changes when we learn to see our relationships as alive — as entities unto themselves? I believe this framework can start to transform our narrative and make permanent changes to how we show up relationally.
