Facilitating Humanity's Self-Directed Evolution

Meaning Making & the Social Construction of Our New Reality

Conversations are how human beings share stories and shape beliefs, and stories are how we co-create meaning and socially construct our reality. Our current world, and our individual beliefs reflect the conversations that have already occurred, and the stories we “bought” into – with our minds, our hearts, our time and our wallets.

“The most important choice isn’t about what you do, it’s what you believe.”
– Richard Quinn

The power of stories is not in question. The only question is whether through our stories we are intentionally co-creating our reality and world by-design. New conversations, new stories and new co-created meaning is required to meet this profound moment. The most important conversations are the ones that shape beliefs, which shape behaviors and outcomes. This means artfully curating conversations by-design, rather than having conversations by-default.

We facilitate The Most Important Conversations, by-design, to meet the moment; shaping the beliefs that shape us and the world. Will you join us?

TMIC is a creative-thinking education organization.

Creative-thinking is precisely what is needed as AI becomes a part of how we live, work and play. Our work is to use the power of the creative method centered around intentional and artfully designed conversations that unlock the creative and innovative potential of our members. By learning together, and applying creative-thinking to any number of topics, we activate new possibilities, inspire new beliefs and co-create new stories for a new age.

“The world is full of stories, and from birth to death, we are all living out our own mythologies.”
– Joseph Campbell

We accomplish this through our exclusive MIC events, through our DesignSummits, through our Lean-In retreats, through our Whole Life Architecture & Business-ByDesign workshops and through The Most Important Conversations podcast. Through each of these forums we convene, converse and collaborate creatively with luminaries, thought leaders, business leaders, investors, artists, makers, philosophers and elders. Each TMIC facilitated interaction serves as a container to co-create new stories, new meaning and to reimagine what’s possible in terms of the systems and structures that define and constitute our lived reality. You can think of us as a creative-thinking incubator.

We invite you to join our community; to collaborate in the creation and design of a new unfolding story of humanity. Each conversation invites participants into new paradigms of possibility for how we live, learn, work, connect, and evolve. Our work occurs at local, regional, national and transnational levels – one conversation, one story, and one activated story-teller at a time.

Transforming Minds & Methods
to Unlock GroupGenius

Design Summits

DesignSummits transform conferences into an action-orientated creativity and solutions incubator. Unlike conventional conferences and summits, focused on networking augmented by keynote lectures or panels, DesignSummits unlock the creative potential of conference participants. Emphasizing deep work through creative collaboration, shared meaning making and collective action; DesignSummits turn participants into activated leaders. These activated leaders work together to facilitate transformation in their respective companies and organizations.

Re Programming

Are you living a life by-default or by-design? Each of our lives are shaped and defined by the quality of our thinking, the nature of our beliefs, and the stories we tell about ourselves in the world, which those beliefs inform. Each decision we make, and each action we take is based on these beliefs, and becomes habituated. This is our conditioning; our programming. But we are not our programming. TMIC ReProgramming provides members with a proven group based learning formula to recreate their businesses, their relationships, their health and their lives by-design to align with their essence and who they choose to be in the world.

Conversations that reCreate Community

Curious to experience TMIC? Our MIC Salons are local by-invitation in-person events held in cities around the world where we curate and convene local luminaries, thought leaders, business leaders, investors, creators, artists, philosophers and elders to learn and create together. Think of them as a modern salon meets mastermind model; a local incubator for the creation and activation of new ideas and the networking of people into collaborative communities of impact. Each event has a central theme, around which we holistically integrate ontology, design-thinking and creativity to artfully facilitate deep and meaningful conversations, imagine new stories, and co-create what’s possible for those participating.

We Must Create Solutions, Not React to Conditions ~ Join Us!

The nature, rate and complexity of this moment of change is dramatic and exponential; possibly existential, depending on our collective choices. At this moment innovation is not enough. On every level - individual, cultural, economic, political and environmental - we are in the midst of a global paradigm shift that demands new, creative solutions; and this requires new conversations and new beliefs about what’s truly possible.
