The (Almost) Unspoken Team Challenge (+ a Free Resource!)
Projects and professionals in the New Earth field have one big challenge that almost nobody discusses.
This challenge is not about funding.
It is also not about finding the right people.
One of the biggest challenges in the field is how to actually cooperate effectively and stay aligned as a team.
How many teams and communities fail after one, two, or three years?
Ask yourself these questions about your own project team(s):
Does everybody have the exact same vision of where the project is going and how to get there?
Do team members consistently feel heard, supported, and motivated?
Is there really distributed authority (or do some people's opinions weigh stronger than those of others)?
If your team is like most project teams, two or three of these answers are probably "no". This means there is an energy leak in your ability to co-create. It’s as if you wanted to drive as fast as you could, but in the meantime, you have one foot on the break. As a result, you haven’t come close to your maximum speed yet.
Remember: alignment is the goal.
Everything else flows from there.
So we all NEED to organize ourselves in new ways and practice this new skill we call “heart-to-heart collaboration”.
The purpose of Gaianet is Uniting all contributors to the New Earth in a regenerative network, facilitating the implementation of a community-type civilization.
... and today we are proud to share our latest deliverable with you:

Free and open-source.
For all humanity to benefit from.

Gaianet offers co-creation support services, where we help other core teams get into alignment and practice self-organization and heart-conscious collaboration.
Our consultants' time is limited, but for now, there is still space for a few more teams to apply for guidance.
Several clients experienced breakthroughs already, using these simple alignment strategies with the support of a Gaianet consultant.
