Building
Snapshot is an alignment diagnostic for leadership teams. One question. A set of ambiguous images. Everyone responds at the same time, before filters kick in. The variation in what comes back tells you where the team actually stands.
I have just put up the Whole Earth Coaching Catalog (WECC) — 156 coaching, leadership and facilitation tools, arranged around the challenges people actually bring rather than by theory. It joins the Whole Earth Strategy Catalogue (WESC) I built a few years back. Both take their name, and their spirit, from Stewart Brand’s Whole Earth Catalog: access to tools, laid out so you can find the one you need and get on with it.
