The Principles Deck

Nature has run the longest field test in history — 3.8 billion years, no bankruptcies. This deck turns its 13 design principles into 91 questions for your organisation: seven lenses per principle, from See it to The long view. Ask better questions, and the system starts answering.

The Principles Deck — 91 question cards
🌱
All 13 principles — one deck
Ask better questions, and the system starts answering. Every card is one principle, seen through one lens.

Who it's for

Leaders, facilitators, consultants and teams who want to work with living systems instead of against them.

What's inside

The Principles Deck turns nature's 13 design principles into 91 questions for your organisation. Each principle is asked through seven lenses — from See it to The long view — so the same pattern that runs a forest or a coastline starts running your meetings, your strategy and your everyday decisions.

Use it as a meeting opener, a weekly rhythm, or a full workshop tool. Draw one card and ask it out loud — ask better questions, and the system starts answering.

  • 91 question cards — 13 principles × 7 lenses
  • Seven angles per principle: See it · Me · Us · The opposite · Outside · Move it · The long view
  • Meeting mode: one principle, three questions, one action
  • Weekly rhythm: one principle per week, one question per day
  • Free online question game — no sign-up
  • Digital PDF + print-ready deck (11 sheets, 63×88 mm)
