Types of Containers In Human Systems

Containers are set up by:

  1. Infrastructure: how groups are formed (linguistically), where groups meet, seating, etc
  2. Knowledge: what knowledge does the group have? Does everyone in the group have the same knowledge?
  3. Identity and boundaries: how you present yourself also forms a boundary.
  4. Relationships: what are the existing relationships in the system?
  5. Language and Emergent Language: linguistic clarity / construction, emergent language (my cohort adopted the term “pop corn” participation)
