Indications that the group is in the (chaotic) territory where a shift to a higher consciousness and connection is an option. (If this option is not chosen, the group will most probably dissolve.)

Leader is…

getting tired of being the center of attention and

having to be responsible for the outcome;

Is frustrated participants don’t take more responsibility; sensing there might be a better way; not enjoying “the usual.” 

Participants are…

itching to be more creative,;

tired of one person being the center of attention;

yearning to be equal partners.

Both leader and participants are…

 finding the meetings flat and “lacking dimension.” Blame abounds.
