Today, we’re stepping into the invisible.
Into the subtle field that shapes every team interaction, every meeting, every moment of collaboration — whether we notice it or not.

You know the feeling.
You walk into a room with smart, kind people… and something just feels off. Tension lingers. Energy drops. Blame bubbles up.
And we wonder: Who’s the problem here?

But what if it’s not who… but where?
What if the challenge — and the opportunity — lies not within individuals, but in the space between them?

In this episode, we explore what team coaching pioneer David Clutterbuck and systems thinker Peter Hawkins call the relational field — the invisible, living system that holds our teams together… or quietly pulls them apart.

We’ll look beyond behavior to what those behaviors might be responding to.
We’ll uncover the spiritual maturity teams invite us into.
And I’ll offer you simple, powerful ways to listen differently, speak differently — and lead from a deeper place.

Because when we shift our attention from fixing people to tending the field, something extraordinary becomes possible.

Every organization has an architecture—but not all of it is visible.

In this episode of The Orange Twist, we explore the unseen frameworks that shape how we lead, collaborate, and respond to change. These hidden structures aren’t found in org charts or strategy decks—they live in our assumptions, our worldviews, and the stories we unconsciously tell about what leadership means, how power works, and what change requires.

Without realizing it, we’re always operating through a lens. Some of us lead from urgency and control. Others from trust and emergence. But until we notice the lens itself, we can’t choose a new way of seeing.

What if conflict wasn’t a failure, but a signal? What if resistance to change wasn’t the problem, but the starting point for listening? What if the culture you’re trying to shift is rooted not in behavior, but in perception?

This short reflection invites you to pause and look beneath the surface of organizational life—to the worldview shaping your actions, your team, and your impact. Because until we see the architecture we’re in, we’re building blind.
