NOT NETWORKING. PRACTICE.

You've done the trainings. You have the credentials. You've read the books and attended the conferences.

But you know there's something more—a way of working that integrates futuring practices with therapeutic rigor, that brings cultural theory into organizational consulting, that treats clients as co-designers of emergent futures rather than problems to solve.

You're looking for peers. Not cheerleaders, not followers, not networking contacts. Peers who will push your thinking, challenge your assumptions, and help you develop the theoretical and practical capacities to do this work with integrity.

That's what Masterminds are for.

THE STRUCTURE

Masterminds are small cohorts (8-12 participants) meeting monthly for 6-12 months. These aren't networking groups or support circles. They're serious study and practice communities for people integrating cultural architecture into their professional work.

Each cohort has a thematic focus, combining:

• Theoretical study (reading and discussing primary sources)

• Case consultation (bringing your actual work for peer review)

• Practice development (trying new approaches, reporting back, refining)

• Futures thinking (scenario planning for your practice/organization)
