Why the Genuine Contact way of working?

Eiwor found the Genuine Contact approach when she was searching for ways to include all members in a political party in the development of a new party policy. After the successful work with the policy, she continued to use Genuine Contact in all her work with the party and in the coming projects she was leading. She found that the methods and tools are so simple that they work in very complex situations. She also found that when meetings ongoingly are facilitated the Genuine Contact way, this can change the very culture and climate of the organization, which makes it possible to use the full wisdom and capacity of everyone. The result is that the organization becomes self-organized within its boarders and givens and can easier work with change. Her long experience of working with Genuine Contact inside organizations have told her that "less is more". There is no need to add difficult procedures to an already complex situation. What is needed is the wisdom of the people, which will be brought forward when working the Genuine Contact way.
