During the eWomenNetwork Wisdom Circle, each person at the table will get an opportunity to present an issue or problem that she is seeking to resolve or achieve, and briefly what she has already tried that has not worked thus far. She then invites the input and resourcefulness of the group. Then, in turn, each member of the Wisdom Circle will offer her suggestions, without telling her what to do. The recipient of this wisdom simply listens as each woman offers suggested actions. At the conclusion of the offerings, she simply summarizes key messages she is taking away from their counsel.
In this way, the knowledge and perspective of others is shared, but not deliberated, so full creativity can come to the fore without censoring or judgment.
