Sobre IBD

Dr. Rout Logger, a fictional management professor and consultant, secures funding for a unique democratic dialogue experiment held monthly in rotating U.S. cities from October 2019 to March 2020. Each session gathers forty randomly selected, demographically diverse citizens to engage in rational, Adult ego state discussions about global human challenges.Meetings begin with a copper rooster spinner, 'the Truther rooster,' which randomly designates a 'Leader of the Moment' to answer three existential questions: the most serious current problem, possible alternatives, and their recommended solution. Participants are paid $5,000 per session and meet for two three-hour segments each Saturday.The story explores interpersonal dynamics, psychological adjustments, and philosophical debates among participants, with Rout guiding the process using transactional analysis concepts. Though initially planned for a year, the experiment ended early due to Covid-19. Convinced of its success in increasing participants’ 'OKness,' Rout and his donors begin developing a Zoom-based, game-free democratic system for global use.
