I had the pleasure of speaking with the Los Angeles chapter of the International Coach Federation last night. We had an amazing group of minds gathered, and here are a few of the notes from our World Cafe discussion.

Some background if you weren’t there: Legacy, People, and Meaning are the three core values of the emerging mentality — the essence of what I call The Mosaic Mind.

Click the thumbnails to see pictures of the noteboards. I also listed a few of my favorite insights from each category.

Thanks to all the participants for their contributions!

NOTES ON “LEGACY”

• Acknowledge that every moment/decision matters–cumulative
• Global perspectives & expanded, long-term worldview
• Call on heroes to stand up and lead
• Create gentle transitions from Old Island to New Island
• Sustainable culture shift that lasts long after current leader is gone

NOTES ON “PEOPLE”

• Biz full of Linchpins… all parts matter to the working of the whole
• Highlight different talents as positive, not competition
• Be the best FOR the world, not IN the world
• Be the voice of change
• Google model: time on the job to work on what excites you

NOTES ON “MEANING”

• Storytelling — through whatever medium works
• Create community culture
• Doing well by doing good
• Put action over words
• Create space to talk from your gut
