I was born in Kansas but moved to Europe in 1995. By 1998 I became courageous enough to deliver the first Expand The Box training. This means Possibility Management was not imported from America. I invented it here in Europe. I think it emerged as a side effect of going through evolutionary liquid states outside of my birth culture. Each time my Box melted down in trainings I was far away from the American morphogenetic field, so I was not forced back into the American Box. At the same time I had too much world-knowledge to become French or German. So in each liquid state – and I was in hundreds of trainings – I came closer and closer to enlivening my essential curiosity. This is adulthood initiation.
Luckily I had no clue where this insatiable question mark might lead me. If I did, the degree to which I would be changed would have frightened me enough to defend normalcy. It wasn’t the seeking so much as what I found that was transformative. No one hinted that uncontainable understandings remained essentially undiscovered by modern culture. After all, we put a man on the moon! We have iPhones and SatNav and broadband WiFi. We have Wikipedia! Well, the gameworld we’ve concocted for 40 years, what we’ve come to call Possibility Management, does not even register on the Wikipedia radars yet. But a quiet (r)evolution is unfolding. A global PM community emerges. Radically responsible individuals are finding each other. We are cultural edgeworkers, pirate thinkers, and people building bridges that others can cross to post-patriarchal cultures centered around free-schooling, relocalized authority, and ongoing adulthood initiatory process. On my 60th birthday during a Possibility Lab, this community became stable enough that I could let go of it from the edges and step inside with the others and be held by them. This was the best birthday present ever. Now, along with deepening the Trainer Guild and writing books and making films, I do everything I can to strengthen the already existing archearchal ecovillage cultures. It’s what I came here for – planting new thoughtware seeds in fertile soil. Harbigarrr!
