ABSTRACT
Free transfer comes with a warning: it is synoptic but less silence-imbued and more earned. It contains development ideas from the work expressed in the form of Commandments, Abandonments and Questions. Commandments give guidance for care and new development, Abandonments are scissors for comfort-pruning, and Questions are growth-seeds, watering direction. Each idea asks a challenging question for organisations seeking to use the approach. This chapter discusses the two journeys, the ideas in the organisations, and the writer, with the purpose of enabling other organisations to use the approach. It can be viewed as a synoptic business poem which seeks to continue to create imaginative value. Its form came from an interview with Jennifer Egan about her latest novel, A Visit from the Goon Squad. She claimed it worked because the format underlines a structural point she was making about brevity, in an awkward, silence-imbued relationship.
