Dr. David Boje will listen to all sides of the conflict, taking notes and respecting confidentiality. Then David will assemble a team of 2 to 7 conflict management coaches to conduct a series of assessments using his original decision tree software (versions 1.0 to 5.0) to get individual input from participants in the conflict.
Dr. Boje meets with all sides individually, taking detailed notes while maintaining strict confidentiality. This creates a safe space for honest expression before any joint sessions.
A specialized team of 2-7 conflict management coaches is assembled, drawing from volunteers in the Insight community, local universities and colleges, and Boje's network of trained coaches and consultants.
Each participant completes assessments using Boje's Decision Tree Software (versions 1.0-5.0), providing structured input on their experience, metaphysical orientations, and desired outcomes.
Virtual and/or on-the-ground workshops are conducted first with each side to the conflict, creating space for processing, reflection, and preparation for dialogue.
After respective coaching sessions, facilitated workshops bring everyone together for 'together-listening', finding common ground, and co-creating new possibilities.
Using the decision tree software, pretest and posttest measurements assess shifts in 'storying', 'together-listening', ability to find common ground, and mutual understanding. For larger populations, representative samples are used.
Financing happens through enrolling volunteers from the Insight community, local universities and colleges, and from Boje's network of coaches and consultants. Funds are raised to cover expenses (airfare, meals, hotel, workshop materials, etc.) through Boje and Rosile's certified non-profit PerView Inc. [501(c)(3)].

Focuses on individual transformation through seven dimensions: Beneath (unconscious patterns), Before (past narratives), Bets (future possibilities), Being (present awareness), Becoming (transformation), Between (relationships), and Beyond (transcendence).
Designed for quick intervention in crisis situations, helping individuals and teams rapidly shift from stuck stories to new possibilities through streamlined antenarrative work.
Explicitly acknowledges that American Pragmatism emerged from Indigenous intellectual traditions. Integrates Indigenous Ways of Knowing (IWOK) with seven pragmatist principles, honoring land-based wisdom and seven-generation thinking.
Bridges Western philosophy (Heidegger, Pondy) with Indigenous ontologies, creating pathways for cross-cultural understanding and transformation that honors multiple ways of knowing.
Models the fragmented, simultaneous nature of organizational reality where multiple echo chambers operate at once. Provides navigation through factorial complexity—for example, 10 simultaneous "rooms" or contexts creates 3,628,800 permutations.

What is Microstoria? It is an Italian Pragmatism movement, which David Michael Boje uses to upgrade Louis Pondy's conflict model, as a way to de-escalate conflict spirals in families, organizations, and communities. This is a presentation to the weekly meeting of the Enthinkment Circle. Presentation Boje uses a new theory of living 'storying' to heal spiraling conflict into pathways of open heart insight. Boje invites teams of microstorists to embrace the revolutionary "missing loop" of genuine transformation—stepping outside conventional thinking through enThinking with courage, compassion, and an Open Heart ♥.

With
love and high quantum vibration,
If
this
year is about telling a NEW STORY, this is the place to
start.
For over four decades, I've dedicated my life to understanding how stories shape organizations, heal trauma, and transform systems. My work bridges academia and practice, theory and lived experience.
As co-founder of PerView Inc., I pioneer trauma-informed coaching that has helped thousands of veterans, first responders, and organizational leaders find their authentic voice and navigate transformation.
My mission is simple: help individuals and organizations move from extractive capitalism to ecological capitalism—from stories that harm to stories that heal.
