The 3rd Fit Forum event on the theme of the conscious and unconscious in fit creation, took place on the 24th September. A compact and bijou group this time, the quality of debate and critical reflection was high – so thanks to Bruce, Bob and Sue for doing that.
The key themes to emerge were:
- Relationship to wider question of awareness we do/do not bring to our lives in general.
- Value judgement in relation to fit creation.
- What values configure fit creation, and at what level do they operate at e.g. Humanity, Culture, Society etc? Do ‘global values’ exist? A particularly interesting strand of conversation, this surfaced the view that to date, aside from the Barret Values Centre’s work on national values, there has been little research into what might be termed ‘global values’.
- The centrality of values to the type of fit that emerges.
- The tension between the apparent ‘desirability’ around fit, and its elusive quality.
The subject of the next conversation is yet to be decided. Watch this space as we have an exciting announcement re a guest we hope to be interviewing for the Fit Forum in December.
Below is a recording of the conversation.
