The Collective

Tiny Traces is built by people working with people.
We come from different countries and fields — coaching, organizational development, therapeutic practice, consulting, teaching, social work, leadership. We bring different ways of reading a room, sensing what goes unspoken, finding language for what is usually just felt.
We’re not a company. We’re a group of people committed to making systems thinking accessible, practical, and real.
Contributors and Supporters (alphabetical order): Christian Baron, Anna Frank, Frauke Godat, Lena Mayer, S. Fisher Qua, Sebastian Wolf Siebzehnrübl, James Stauch, Klara von Carlsburg.
How to contribute
1. Share a Trace
If you’ve encountered a moment or pattern that felt significant — something that repeats, something that shifted when you paid attention to it — you can contribute it.
Your traces potentially become part of a growing public collection. The will be edited in style to match the flow of Tiny Traces. They don’t appear in the booklets, but they live (soon here): accessible to anyone looking for recognition, reflection, or just the comfort of knowing they’re not alone.
2. Co-Develop the Collection
Some of you will want to do more. To shape the next booklet. To ensure the patterns and situations reflect what you’re actually seeing in your work. To test new traces with your clients and bring back what lands.
If you see yourself in this — if the booklets feel useful enough that you’d want to deepen the work — we invite you to apply to join the Collective.
What It Means to Join
- You commit to using the booklets with your clients, teams, or in your own reflection
- You order a minimum number of booklets at production cost (to ensure this stays grounded in real use, not social proof)
- You join monthly online sessions (hosted, 90 minutes) where we share new insights, new perspectives, new situations and patterns emerging from your practice
- You contribute what you discover — the traces that shifted something for you, the moments that keep repeating, the questions your clients bring back
