The Internet is exponentially increasing collective consciousness. Our capability to instantaneously form global tribes, which share tastes, vocabulary, and mindset, has grown tremendously. Whether it is succeeding in a global organization, promoting a global brand or product, or increasing individual happiness, reading and influencing the collective mind is becoming an essential skill – just look at how far it has brought Donald Trump.
Part I (theory) - Creating the Collective Mind applies social quantum physics to build entanglement through empathy and individual reboot through Heisenberg reflection. Everybody can become the leader of their own swarm by combining competition and collaboration for the greater cause of the swarm. It also introduces the concept of Collaborative Innovation Networks (COINs), as well as the Six Honest Signals of Collaboration: central leadership, balanced contribution, rotating leadership, responsiveness, honest sentiment, and shared context.
Part II (lab) - Measuring the Collective Mind is done by analyzing communication archives, e.g. e-mail, skype, Twitter, Wikipedia or Blogs, to build a virtual mirror of individual and organizational communication behavior, and change it for the better. Experiment yourself with the online social media analysis tool Condor.
