We stand in a circle for every open up and put up. The circle represents our circle of trust. Everyone in the circle is moving the team towards one vision, one goal. They all value the same thing.
We squeeze hands and pass energy to the right, into a circle. (Or maybe do the Terrance thing.) This symbolizes our motto. When we give to each other, it all comes back around to us. As long as everyone in the circle is connected. When one person breaks the chain, it breaks the trust of the group. Give to the team, and trust that it will come back to you.
When the energy has passed around the circle, we know that it is safe for us to open up. We are free to express what we are going to give to the team. How we are going to make ourselves better, so that the team can get better.
At the end of the week, we complete the circle with our put ups. We give each other the validation at the end of the week. Just like we put the energy out to the team with our squeeze, now it comes back to you with the put up.
Monday is basically prepwork for the circle. We have our staff meetings, we have our captains meetings, we have our team meeting. We set our intentions with our meditations. Than we enter the circle and commit...
... and at the end of the week, we find closure.

Wouldn't it be crazy if the players could vote somebody out of the circle?
