Ideas First
We invite you to bring your perspective to the Catalyst. The blending of different pespectives by citizens focused on optimal outcomes is usually how optimal outcomes are reached.
Consider several people are describing the same house. How a person describes that house depends on how they experience it. That house described by someone standing in the front, or the back, or inside, or looking through a microscope…or by the person who calls it home will likely be different descriptions. These different perspectives each contain truth. Each of those perspectives is an essential part of the house. The front of the house doesn’t benefit by tearing the back of the house down.
Catalyst aspires to create an environment where citizens synthesize different perspectives into the best path forward for the whole community. We moderate comments based on these guidelines so that Catalyst remains an effective space to build a strong, healthy and aligned tribe.
The Guidelines
Make it about the idea, not a profile, identity or persona on the other side of your idea.
Only tearing down ideas is detrimental to our community. Help build and create.
Think long term and contribute with care. Our community tribe working together is more important than any one issue.
