Excerpt from the Fourth Emerald Key: Radical growth - the Learn-ability leverage
Kaleidoscoping is the practice and capacity to recognize relationships and patterns. You practice active inquiry that seeks to understand the core principles that are the basis of all systems. Kaleidoscoping is the ability to compare and correlate seemingly unrelated fields and apply concepts from one to the other. For example, using the terminology and anatomy of weather systems in organizational behavior and the season’s cycle in the market place.  You discover that building an investment and building trusting relationships are similar – they follow the same principle, both need ongoing deposits.  You observe the infrastructure and activity of a beehive to learn about promoting a culture of efficiency and excellence in execution. Kaleidoscoping is the practice of increasing your capacity to handle complexity, such as in the now 24/7 interconnectedness of the web 2.0 conversation. You kaleidoscope to discover meaning in new combinations and connections and learn to anticipate what is newly emerging. You connect the dots to see constellations where others see stars.

Our two new Emerald CDs are now available. “Living On Purpose” and “Stepping Into The Unknown”. To get your CDs visit here.

The 10th Emerald Key: “Living on Purpose”
In this Key we help you find and articulate your purpose. We take you through a process of discovering your deepest beliefs about yourself. Some people discover their purpose early in life, but most must journey a long road to find it. To have true personal power it’s important that you find this inner core and the confidence to believe in yourself. It’s important that you believe that your life on earth is significant and that your purpose and what you are here to do matters. Living on purpose is how greatness reveals itself, and when you realize your potential for greatness, you can become one with your reasons for being.

The 11th Emerald Key - “Stepping Into The Unknown”
When you were born, you entered this world not knowing failure. The concept of failure did not exist. All you cared about was discovering and exploring everything around you. This joyful impulse to live with your senses wide open to discover the opportunities of living is the experience we are seeking in this key. There is within this key, an invitation to reflect on your attitude towards risk; to evaluate how you go about the opportunities of your life. Do you take risks or do you hold back? Think about this: what is the price of taking risks? And then, what is the price of holding back? With this Key we invite you to step into your power, to realize your opportunity and to be the author of your own unfolding story.
