When working with a polarized issue:

• Recognize the stance or position of the parties involved
• Decide as an Evocative Leader, how you can stretch your own stance to hold both polarities
• Review the skills on the back of the Creation Intelligence Card and the Sustaining Intelligence Card
• Apply one or more of the skills
• Employ the use of a question that seeks to understand that which is behind the other’s position

~CREATING AN EVOCATIVE PRACTICE FIELD~

STEP ONE: After identifying your gift and contribution from Pathfinding Intelligence, identify an area in your life that you wish to align with (Education, Community, Children, Peace, Elders, Organic Farming, School, Women, Other), in which you see a need.

STEP TWO: Find a local group that you wish to establish relationship with – possibly including marginalized people – that corresponds to the area with which you wish to align.

STEP THREE: Create a partnership with the local group in which you will inspire and allow a collaborative project to emerge based on needs of the partner in order to benefit the group.
