The Glossary regarding [[Peer-based Organisation]] is currently being developed on the [http://www.organicdesign.co.nz Organic Design Wiki].

The purpose of this glossary is to create a basic [[data dictionary]] of common terms we use and agree to/understand the definition of so we can ascribe meaning to what is being said and thought. This will reduce ambiguity and increase clarity.  Issues arise in language in both culture, context, and other factors discussed futher in [[literary criticism]].

Another objective of the glossary: To help us use the same "language" as we describe and use [[About The Project|The Project]].

Info.svg The purpose of having an Organic Design glossary is that while we generally use Wikipedia as a reference, there are certain terms, which we use and think of differently or in a more specific context than described on Wikipedia. For instance over the years we have developed our own perspective on certain criteria, such as think global, act local and there are projects like wiki organisation that give more specific meaning to notions like workflow or trust group. Some good starting points for learning what we're working on here are OrganicDesign peer group, Platform, manifesto and our values.
