Thoughts on mobilizing through inspiration or anger
Eelke Wielinga | 02 December 2010
The event is inspiring already, indeed. But what is inspiration anyway?
What strikes me is that the issue of drive, passion, energy and inspiration is hanging around everywhere. It might be my bias and I like to believe it and it is the entry point of my work in networks. How to keep the energy in these, sometimes massive, multi-stakeholders processes (MSP’s)? Who are the ones that really are driving the process forward? How do you relate with them if you want to be part of the movement? And what is driving you? What place does this issue have in the methods we use?
Not yet expressed but related: what about mobilizing anger? Many MSP’s, and also networks that form themselves to play a part in such processes, start with angry people. There is energy in anger too. But sometimes such anger leads to destruction. How do we deal with that? What do you do with your own anger?
Thoughts for further exploration.
