Membership Tiers Information
In this section you can learn more about how Singularity structures it’s membership community into 3 different tiers:
Tier 1: Global members
Tier 2: Mantle members
Tier 3: Core members
Each of these different tiers involves deepening levels of commitment, capacity, and power in the workings of Singularity. When we are working with collective decision making, all members have a say, and some members have more of a say.
This is part of our experiment in balancing inclusivity and depth. We want to make sure everyone’s say is included in processes of collective decision making. And, to best protect and evolve what Singularity stands for, we don’t want a system where the perspectives of, for instance, one new member who has attended one Singularity members session while being a bit distracted to have the same weight as someone who has dedicated their time, energy, and heart over the last years to deeply understanding, aligning with and serving Singularity.
So, we are experimenting with structuring our membership community across 3 tiers, with each tier involving deeper stages of self-development, participation in the culture, and embodied action in the organism of Singularity. We’re exploring whether this approach can help us make sure that we remain inclusive with the doors for membership open to all, that we can serve the developmental needs of those at different stages of the path, and that those with the deepest alignment with Singularity have the most power in collective decision making.
Below you can see the criteria we are setting out for each membership tier. These criteria are sourced in an integrative approach to human development from across multiple global traditions.
*Disclaimer: We in the Leadership Development Circle acknowledge that sometimes it can be difficult to fully see where a person is on their journey. We have done our best to create processes of self- and community-assessment for this process, and will do our best for impartial assessment of member’s suitability for each of these membership tiers. We may not always get it exactly right though. We commit ourselves to this being a process that can support us to learn and get better at doing this process, and we invite people’s trust.
