Relational awareness training
Return to your teams with the relational awareness to play your part in sustaining whole-system resilience.
With all attention on making everything function as expected, each function mastered builds confidence that nothing will go wrong—until one part fails and the whole fragments. When systemic fragmentation stems from broken relationships between functions, improving individual functions misses the point. A better approach is to develop the relational awareness to process how functions relate as a whole. To relax into alert connection and enjoy a dance of anticipation, confident that we can handle whatever comes next.
Welcome. I hope you’re well. My name is Jon Thorne, and I spent the first part of my career separating functional and relational thinking from human connection. In the second, I focused on bringing the relational back to the functional. My book explains why meaningful connection cannot come from focusing only on how things function. That may be enough for some people, but I’m writing for those who want something more.

# The Importance of Training the Ability to Perceive and Sense the Whole
The whole is the nuanced, intricate layers of relational connections that constantly flow around us. It cannot be fully quantified or entirely comprehended, making it impossible to control completely. If we don’t keep our eye in, it is easy to become out of tune with the whole. When this occurs, we find ourselves expending increasing amounts of energy attempting to prevent our plans from being derailed by external factors. In our exhaustion, we may resort to seizing whatever is readily available, doing nothing at all, or attempting to push our way through. All of which fails because we are out of tune with the whole.
