One major feature of Emergence is the reiteration of the same question. When questions are repetitive in this way, it is predictable what the next question will be so the client isn’t involved in trying to outguess the facilitator or influence the next question.
There are considered to the 3 basic types of iteration:
The purpose of iteration is to develop a schedule within the problem. The iterations also bring the client to new understanding as per ‘The Power of Six’. They bring time into the space adding another dimension, therefore providing a basis for developing process within the system. As time is developed, the ‘Me’ begins to split apart from the ‘Not-Me’, and the path to true integration of our being begins.
These three types of iteration each have their own purpose and use.
