Open Communication \u2015 encompassing the subconceptual \u2015 is like opening doors together with another person and you don\u2019t know what lies behind them.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Towards empathy-beyond<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In Open Communication, Openness is empathy beyond the conceptual. It is also the aim of such empathy. [see: \u201cEmpathy in 1, 2, 3 – Part 3: \u2018Beyond the Conceptual\u2019<\/a>\u201d]<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is not a simple thing to reach, nor to have reached. [see: \u201cGrowing towards AURELIS Coach<\/a>\u201d]<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Frighteningly open?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

People may be afraid to lose through your<\/em> Open Communication what is important to them<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rightfully so \u2015 they should not lose anything deeply meaningful through any Openness. Whatever meaningful could they lose? Well, plainly, to start with, meaningfulness itself if this is hanging on a loose thread of socially constructed concepts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For instance, what could be lost for a primitive tribe performing a necessary rain dance or for a modern subculture in awe of a populist leader? Or anything in-between? In any case, much more than most people are aware of. It may be correct to lose what gets lost, but that is not the whole story.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wanted: being able to cope<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

If this scares you a bit, that\u2019s all right. As an open communicator, at least one needs to be able to handle for oneself what comes up in any open situation. This is not straightforward. It\u2019s a reason why not just anyone should go into the field of open coaching.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It carries responsibility, also for an Open Leader, for instance. [see: \u201cOpen Leadership: from Chaotic to Open<\/a>\u201d]<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is called \u2018wisdom.\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One cannot learn this from a book, a workshop, or even a University course \u2015 unless the professor is a genius in human insight \u2015 which exists. It asks for tremendous humility. Otherwise, chaos is continually lurking in Openness. This should be avoided by building on a solid, in-depth basis. Again, this demands wisdom and a lot of work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It should appear simple. It shouldn\u2019t be simple.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Local vs. global minimum in a mental landscape<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Open Communication can be seen as a search for the global minimum in one’s landscape concerning the topic of communication. Less is more. A minimum lies where little stands in the way of touching the deeper ground. Local minima are avoided by staying open to alternatives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There is a deeper goal to Openness, a genuine search, and the feeling when something worthwhile has been reached. Therefore, ethics is crucial. Openness is part of this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As a rule of thumb, Openness should lead to more Inner Strength. This is found in more global minima leading to more stability, thus a more robust foundation upon which a bigger house can be built.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wanted: consolidation<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The time after gaining new insight in Openness is crucial. If you don\u2019t take that properly into account, the effort may have been in vain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The reason for this is that Openness is more dream-like. During the morning, you usually forget any last dream that you might still remember. The other ones, you may already have forgotten during the night.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, consolidation is needed, but consolidation is not incarceration. Instead, in the best case, it is an additional search for what is really important while taking time (= respect) to look again at what just came up in Openness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is also a time to deeply enjoy, if possible together.<\/p>\n
