The Collaboration Design Expansion Deck is designed to make it easy to continually evolve your Blueprint of We Collaboration Document. They come with a Blueprint of We Digital Template (Word or Google Docs) so you can effortlessly begin a document —license for up to four participants (groups with more than four participants require an additional $15/person license).

After the document is written, the Collaboration Cards are used on a regular basis to help further custom design your work together, create an even richer Blueprint, and help you mindfully evolve the relationship.

The Blueprint of We Collaboration Document & Process

The Blueprint of We is a design document for people who want to get things done. The simple structure harnesses the innate social nature of humans and builds the skills and capacity to deliver on your goals.

• It is currently used in many languages and cultures in 100+ countries worldwide—from entrepreneurial start-ups to non-profit organizations to global corporations, from couples to families, from individuals to communities to any relationship situation that exists. 
• The Blueprint is at once intimate and scalable to thousands. 
• It creates a space to be vulnerable and is being used to replace or enhance legal contracts.

Two Blueprint of We Elements

1. The co-written design document gives people the space to exchange information about who they are and how they work best. 

• When we have information straight from the source, rather than making assumptions about what other people’s behavior means, our brains engage the neural networks that build trust and lower anxiety. 
• Your Blueprint is a living, breathing document that evolves and changes over time as your group evolves and changes.
• Combine this with team and company strategy or personal and community desires, and you have both people and process in alignment. This is the written foundation for clarity and ideation.

2. The collaboration process builds on your written design document and introduces tools to develop collaborative leadership behaviors, calming messy minds and improving on what is already working.  

• Through a method we refer to as Noise in the System, you learn to clarify and communicate your awareness of what matters, how you operate collectively, and how those behaviors become cultural patterns. 
• From that awareness, we give you simple, daily tools to help you question, and ultimately change, the pattern thinking that causes anxiety and stress. Stress, when used as a messenger, can give you clarity of direction, ease of decision-making, and resiliency in the storm.
• The iterative design process offers an on-going learning cycle about self and others in relation to how you get work done together.
