The Trajectory of Collaborative Circles
Collaborative circles follow a trajectory described in Farrell's book, evolving through distinct stages from initial formation to the development of a shared vision and techniques. The circle's nature transforms significantly at each stage, moving continuously from talk to work, criticism to creation, and safe consensus to risky disagreement.
