## **What happens in session**
|
|
|
|
In this session, we cover cooperative history and lineages, crediting Global South, Indigenous, Black, women's traditions, not just Rochdale. We also review the 7 ICA Principles.
|
|
|
|
The theme is moving from principles to personal values.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
:::tip
|
|
**Homework assigned:** individual journaling, team values map (with PS), and individual prep for The Talk (Session 2).
|
|
|

|
|
### :eyes: **Your role during session**
|
|
|
|
* Observe small group activity (cooperative lineage sharing) - note whose stories are shared
|
|
* Listen for how studios talk about values - vague or specific?
|
|
|
|
|
|
## **This week's Studio Support Meeting: Values Mapping**
|
|
|
|
### **📚 Materials**
|
|
|
|
* Studio Miro board with Values Mapping template
|
|
* 7 Principles reference
|
|
|
|
|
|
### **👆 Before the session**
|
|
|
|
* Confirm everyone completed their individual journaling (Session 1 homework)
|
|
* Ensure the studio Miro board has the template
|
|
* Have the 7 Principles visible (on the board or screen-shared)
|
|
|
|
|
|
### **🌊 Session flow**
|
|
|
|
#### **Check-in (5 min)**
|
|
|
|
Individual sharing (15-20 min) - Each person shares 3-5 values from their individual reflection.
|
|
|
|
Prompts:
|
|
|
|
* "What values came up when you did the journaling?"
|
|
* "You don't need to explain or justify."
|
|
|
|
As they share: each person adds values to the Miro board (stickies in their colour/section). No discussion - just capture.
|
|
|
|
Watch for: someone dominating or going first every time; someone staying quiet - invite them in gently; values that sound the same but might mean different things to different people.
|
|
|
|
|
|
#### **Noticing patterns (10-15 min)**
|
|
|
|
Look at the board together.
|
|
|
|
Prompts:
|
|
|
|
* "What do you notice?"
|
|
* "Where do you see overlap?"
|
|
* "Any surprises?"
|
|
* "Are there values that seem similar but might mean different things to different people?"
|
|
|
|
\
|
|
|
|
> Example to offer: "Transparency" - does it mean open documents? Open conversations? Both? Neither? What exactly is meant?
|
|
|
|
|
|
**Connecting to the 7 Principles (10 min)**
|
|
|
|
Look at the ICA principles together.
|
|
|
|
**Prompts**:
|
|
|
|
* "Do you see connections between your values and these principles?"
|
|
* "Draw lines or group things if it helps."
|
|
* This can be loose - don't let them fixate on making a beautiful diagram. The point is seeing that their values connect to a larger cooperative tradition.
|
|
|
|
|
|
#### **To bring back to Session 2 (5 min)**
|
|
|
|
**Prompts**:
|
|
|
|
* "What's one thing you learned about where your team aligns or diverges?"
|
|
* * *You'll share this in Session 2 - doesn't need to be polished.*
|
|
* Have someone write it down or capture it on the board.
|
|
|
|
|
|
#### **Community agreements contribution (5 min)**
|
|
|
|
"Based on this conversation, are there 1-2 values you'd propose adding to the cohort community agreements?" Capture these to bring back to the full group.
|
|
|
|
|
|
### :star: **Tips**
|
|
|
|
|
|
If someone is dominating:
|
|
|
|
* "Let's hear from someone who hasn't shared yet."
|
|
|
|
|
|
If no one talks… awkward silence:
|
|
|
|
* "Take a minute to look at the board silently. What stands out?"
|
|
|
|
|
|
If tension emerges
|
|
|
|
* "Sounds like there are some different perspectives here. That's useful but we don't need to resolve it today."
|
|
|
|
|
|
If they want to debate definitions:
|
|
|
|
* "It's okay to mean different things. The goal is simply to notice where you might need to clarify later."
|
|
|
|
|
|
If time runs short:
|
|
|
|
* Prioritize steps 2-3 (sharing and noticing). The principles connection and agreements contribution can be done async if needed.
|
|
|

|
### **🏁After the session**
|
|
|
|
* Note any tensions/surprises for your PS check-in
|
|
* Remind the team to bring their learnings to Session 2\n
|
|
|
|
### **👉 Also this week**
|
|
|
|
#### **Make sure they're prepping for The Talk**
|
|
|
|
Session 2 homework includes individual prep on four topics: financial reality, time/availability, skills/contributions, decision-making styles.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
:::warning
|
|
They need to *write their answers down* before Session 2. Check that they're doing this!
|
|

|
### :triangular_flag_on_post: **Red flags to watch for**
|
|
|
|
* A studio that can't name any values beyond "we want to make good games" - don't we all! Too vague.
|
|
* One person speaking for the group about "our" values
|
|
* Values that are all abstract with no grounding in practice
|
