Multisensory Interpretive Dialogue

How are identity systems expressed and communicated?

Multisensory Interpretive Dialogue (MID) is the "look & feel" of communication. It applies to speaking, listening, writing and presentation of concepts. At GPS, we teach MID by example via the design of our videos, presentations and behaviorisms. Our seminars are open-ended dialogues that promote techniques such as Groove Listening and Creative Feedback. These methods are shared and proliferate in organizations through MID. These exchanges enrich the relational aesthetics of an organization and increase motivational flows within personal/organizational identity systems

MID begins with an agreement between individuals to collectively share in the production of concepts during a given exchange. It recognizes conceptual creation as a hyper-deterministic process that develops through feedback. Thus dialogue occurs within an interpretative field that is intrapersonal. Dialogues were the preferred method of communication by luminaries such as David Bohm. The idea of MID is also indebted to Milton Erickson’s “teaching tales” and by extension, relate to neurolingistic programming or low-level trance induction, which is multisensory.

Kurt Weibers skill as a motivational designer is in weaving rich new aesthetics of MID. His videos evoke the beautiful and complex dimensions of professional self-improvement topics by catalyzing MID and maintaining a delicate balance between chaos and order. MID is the key to any motivational design scheme because it challenges the audience to engage and contribute, yet provides for enough structure to meet the desired goal ahead of schedule while taking a new and interesting road to it every time.
