As a holographic system
The 10 Essential Moves are an example of a holographic system, in the sense that every move embodies and enhances in some way all the others. I discovered this principle over twenty years ago in inventing the Artful Negotiation system which was based on the principle of integrity. Integrity in the Chinese and Japanese languages is written with the character for “hand” in dynamic balance with the “eye” of discovery and the “heart” of compassion (德).
I discovered, and have since been able to demonstrate in working with hundreds of practitioners, that when a negotiator or teams of negotiators and their organizations cultivate and are able to embody integrity, they make wiser decisions. And every move toward integrity tends to realign every other move in this direction. There is a compounding positive effect. The 10 Essential Moves, which are themselves an integrity system, have this same holographic quality. Each move is a “gate” to every other move. All guide the explorer/practitioner to a state of heightened integral resilience. Thus, integral resilience, BHI, integrity, and wisdom are closely aligned.
