The OSE approach is to build a pond all the knowledge of civilization to distill those principles which are not controversial. The goal of OSE is to maximize a collaborative effort chords civilization mid-course correction. Is this even possible? Can people agree on what is that pass is? OSE aims to distill and follow those principles that are non-controversial in order to assure maximum buy an from a significant number of people.

We do not expect everyone to agree with our core beliefs. By defining them clearly below, we are opening up discussion for reconciling differences in beliefs.
At OSE, we hold each other accountable to these values, and we ask collaborators to refine and clarify these values as we move forward:
- Absolute empowerment of people through open access to learning, especially of productive, transformative entrepreneurship. OSE's focus

- Systems Thinking. Integration and reconciliation of different belief systems, and the treatment of the world as a whole, not a partisan, special interest, or siloed approach. Understanding of the connection between seemingly disparate parts of the system towards creating a balance between human and natural ecosystems.
- Diversity of options and choices that allows for positive and negative freedom. Part of allowing for diversity is the acceptance of inclusion. This tends towards finding common ground. Diversity of opinion also allows for accepting disagreement, which means that various viewpoints are accepted for discussion, as opposed to untouchable. This is important for preserving individuals who have a different opinion, allowing freedom of thought, and freedom from groupthink. It is always AND, not EITHER OR.
