There are several shadow conversations, which are the old conversations about consensus as a requirement for action. I like your point about research and development being action. This implies that we learn our way into the future, and action learning is both valid and useful. Thanks Patrice.

Sharing concepts with a group this weekend. Can picture the garage, good feelings. And, for some reason thought of front porch. Who is on the front porch, does it matter and what role do/might they play? Also a thought about an earlier posting by George, I sometimes find that when shadow conversations develop, ex: group bogged down about agreement on logo, that the options offered really aren't a good fit for situation or group anyway and when the "right" option appears agreement will occur. Sometimes the smallest-possible-action-forward is simply to agree that maybe there are still other options out there that might be a more successful fit and/or to review the processes that led to the current options. Breakdown probably occurred much earlier, often lack of agreement based on something that happened before or during development process Love the Intentionalmodel.com concept and page.
