Powerful reminder of the difference between
family and organization constellations/dynamics.
Thank you, Don, for bring this clarity to the
discussion.

Subject: Re: [ConstellationTalk] Different types of belonging
I think this incident with Chris's decision is a good reminder to us all of
the systemic difference in what governs membership to a group.
Organizational Constellation work helps one experience the differences. When
businesses
or other organizations try to operate like families in terms of "right to
belong" the group often suffers. When an employee no longer is performing in
his
role, he is not being excluded if he is fired the way an ex-spouse or
perpetrator is excluded when cut off from the family, and the soul responses
are
different. Organizational bonds seem to be served by tying membership to ways
of behaving. I think the morphogenic field forces that order and bind family
relationships (as revealed by family constellations) offer survival value on
many levels by not being tied to specific behaviors. Hoewever, if applied
to other organizations, these belonging orders could threaten the survival of
the organization.
I'd love to hear more from OC practitioners about discoveries of the
differences.
