A living practice to reconnect with our inner wisdom.

What is Whole Intelligence?

Whole Intelligence refers to the innate practical wisdom that is present in each of us - our being, doing and becoming; how we are and understand ourselves mentally, physically, and spiritually; how we collaborate with others, experiment, and innovate, and respond to life, whether in joyful or challenging times. Whole Intelligence is a holistic, living practice that acknowledges the interconnectedness and interdependence of life and nurtures individual and collective wellbeing.

The Five Explorations

The five explorations are areas of human strength, essential for today’s and tomorrow’s world, that need to be drawn out, reinforced, and extended since they are central to the success (or not) of all worthwhile human endeavours, individual or shared. They are varieties of human competence and potential that are present in individual lives and human systems of all types – from small families to medium-sized organisations to global institutions. The five explorations are domains of being and doing that add to life and are about wise work and living well. *Although described separately, they do not exist alone and apart from one another. They act together; interweave; require others in order to come into play; and support one another’s emergence. That there are five of them, and that they differ from each other, permits a variety of perspectives to be noticed together, as an easy-to-apply framework.

Future Sense

“The human dimension” is the most significant factor in determining our common future. Human beings can act together sensibly and cooperatively to solve problems – they have the potential to do so. But there has to be a shift in consciousness, like a software upgrade if they are to act more intelligently overall and in a way that does not endanger our species. So what needs to happen to help human beings act with more insight, sure-footedness, deep responsibility, and emotional maturity?
