Kerry: The blue word Energy does not have a page when I click on it.
This is also red. I don't have a structure. Just some ideas for potential structures.
Need to think here about organisational structures. My experience of working in flat partnership structures (eg Deloitte) which work well vs hierarchies (IBM) which don't.
What about resilience - resilient networks.
# Questions/Observations
TITLE: STRUCTURE
K: What is the right holding structure for StS? What criteria do we need to use for deciding? Options include: UK Not for Profit, US (California) N4P, Part of EG, Part of JV's Cali Ed N4P. How to decide?
K: Where is the most ethical country to incorporate?
K: After talk with Jon Twigge - He has a CLG - Company Ltbd by Guarantee. Middle ground between charity and company with shareholders. Not for profit. cheap to start £40?)
K: See here 
for advice on legal structure options in UK
K: Info on Coop option in UK here
K: JDG/RP Holomat of Octologues?
K: How does StS relate to KnowLimiTs and University of Hull for me?
K: How will we contract with partners like EG, Potentialisation etc?
K: I have decided to create a UK limited company as the entity to hold "See the Systems". The logic is that any other structure involves others (meaning I would lose control of the ethics) and is difficult to scale. I spoke to Mark Thomas of 99% as they run their operation on £0 budget. They are running into difficulties as it is limiting their expansion. I have personal experiences of the feeding frenzy of greed in a charity structure. The CLG and Coops still involves others.`
K: I need to christen this organisation with a name that encompasses "See the Systems" but goes beyond it. Considering: Emerging Dynamics (Ed for short); Create More Wisdom/ Change My World (CMW...connotation of quality beyond BMW!) also Divergent Didactics.
