I heard a lovely a succinct line from Valdis Krebs yesterday: Similarities are where we connect, difference is where we innovate. The art of invitation is creating a group with similarities and differences operating at a nice creative tension. Not everyone in a system needs to be connected to everyone else. But if everyone is a stranger, there is not enough coherence to self-organize. Self-organization needs you to strike a healthy balance between the two.
