The healthiest, most progressive, and most demanding evolutionary systems practice elevated frequencies.

Operating at Elevated Frequencies

These organisations are immeasurably clear about the fine line between leading and manipulating; directness and passive aggression; effort and apathy; compassion and niceties; ferocity and meanness; exponential and linear; power and control.

They hire for the former, speak openly about them, and call them out. They force the latter into the light as a matter of strategy. Elevated systems operate in apparent and obvious opposition rather than in deference to or codependence with the lower expressions.

These teams fight for the highest frequencies within each corner of a system, absent the delusion that a handful of people “at the top” will magically enable an enlightened and “safe” system to appear before them. They architect an elegant system design and invite humans to play within that design with clear principles, compelling operating intentions, outcome measurability, and—perhaps most critically—honest, open, truthful, and mature dialog.

Elevated organisations understand the Field is latent and the build on her shoulders a derivative of the energetics in play by all – daily.

Building & Protecting the Field

Enabling factors of elevated organisations include:

  • Asking open questions

  • Seeking clarity as a commitment to the strategic doing of business

  • Containing another’s influence over one another

  • Pushing up against unconscious, default norms and the "just because" response

  • Expecting one another to relate at a higher energetic level because they opt to dignify the value and potential in the other

  • Disrupting for good (not simply to break things) by garnering their energy each and every day to show up from a well of receptivity, strength, focus, clear strategy, rigor, and compassion.

  • Building and maintaining a high-frequency field to align with and flow through evolutionary change, rooted in an optimally designed daily grind.

  • Holding the poles of loving and fierce, open and strong, balanced and focused, vulnerable and discerning – with proficiency.

  • Living and respecting boundaries by honoring personal agency and sovereignty rather than exhaustively trying to set them as a defense.

  • Learning to value themselves from within by actively practicing personal development (versus a system design of judgement and projection from without) while participating actively in the collective field.

  • Defaulting to respect and dignity, openness, dialogue, sharing, truth, and clarity.

  • Understanding that they are never done, and leveraging the unending potential and possibilities as a way to maintain operational consistency at the highest frequencies.

A Field cannot be maintained by offshoring accountability to others for maintaining it.

The Inner Work of Evolution

The Field has to be adopted, nurtured, and protected daily by a large enough cohort of powerful (not controlling) individuals stepping into the arena and the depth of themselves – getting their butts out of the cheap seats, being willing to fail, feel, and earn the progressive, evolutionary journey.

Falsely performing wokeness, calculatingly applying the performative expression of change rhetoric, or perpetuating toxic positivity will never elevate the vibratory equation. In fact, the risk of devolution becomes quite high.

Excoriating the deeply embedded and unconscious thought patterns of dark side operating phenomenon requires conscious and continuous effort – from your hearts, the mind in the center of your chests. The voice and sense-making within that always precedes your cognitive brain meeting your mouth.

Egoic judo will not move any system to a more unified, higher Field. These will all simply keep you in the eternally dense labyrinth, on repeat, until you decide you're done playing this way.

You’ve got this. x
