In this complex and turbulent world of our human civilization many existing, problem-solving methodologies seem to have become completely or partially inadequate. There is an urgent need for an integral view on collaboration and supporting technologies and instruments.

Meshworking™ is a joint process that creates fundamentally more effective collaboration connections. These connections generate systemic solutions for the challenges organizations at present are confronted with and contribute as such to solutions for global issues.

A Meshwork™ is more than just a network. In a network it is all about the relationship between partners. In a Meshwork™ the relationship between partners and the shared goal is at the heart of the matter. This makes sure that a community of partners emerges instead of a "collection" of partners.

During the creation of a Meshworking™ roadmap the stakeholders look for and formulate the collective goal and each stakeholder determines their relationship to that goal as well as their contribution and interest in reaching that goal. The energetic and tangible shift this brings in the attention of the stakeholders makes the collaboration much more successful than each stakeholder limiting him/her-self to their individual "piece of the puzzle".

Meshworks:

• Create insight in the common field of interest of different stakeholders by putting the shared goal at the heart of the matter;
• Facilitate conversations that matter to discover how the unique interests and qualities of each stakeholder can contribute to the shared goal and consequently can continue to evolve;
• Transform friction and conflict through synergy and co-creation instead of consensus and compromise;
• Transform fragmented individual initiatives into a coherent whole of aligned interventions aimed at a shared goal and shared ambition;
• Enable to transcend traditional limits between organizations or parts of organizations, disciplines and cultures;
• Demand an integral field of vision that recognizes and honours the individual parts and the whole which is more than the separate parts, and;
• Offer an infrastructure for large-scale communication, resulting in high-performance collaboration where "what is right" prevails above "who is right".

"Meshworking™ is one of the most hopeful innovations I have seen for dealing with the complex global challenges humanity is facing today. The combination of face-to-face collaboration processes with leading-edge online technology enables stakeholders to self-organize cross-sector rapidly and effectively for large-scale impact." — Herman Wijfels, Former CEO Rabobank, Chair of the Social and Economic Advisory Council to the Dutch Government and Dutch Director at the World Bank

"A fundamental drive of evolution is to unite what used to be separate into a higher form of cohesion. That is what is being done in every meshwork™ where we bring together what works in the world. We have unprecedented powers to change the evolution of life on Earth. Sharing freely, learning from one another and co-creating the new ethically and effectively, we can achieve a positive future together." — Barbara Marx Hubbard, renowned futurist, social innovator and lifelong pioneer in the field of conscious evolution
