Why use Warm Data? 

Though it may seem easier to frame complex issues in simple terms that lead to concrete solutions, such linear thinking most often serves to further complicate the problems — especially the “wicked” problems of today.

Warm Data labs address the question:

“How do we think our way through the messes we’re in, when the way we think is part of the mess?”

Warm Data labs bring people into dialogue around complex issues; the magic is in participants’ own experience, making new associations, linkages, and perceptions, as people engage in mutual learning together. 

Developed by Nora Bateson, Warm Data Labs have been held around the world and across diverse contexts. They are designed to increase people’s ability to respond to difficult issues.​

Rochelle Fairfield is a multi-talented generalist who has worked in diverse roles, from transforming multi-stakeholder conflict in BC’s commercial fishing industry to leading a technology ethics non-profit. She is a long-time student of Zen, has coached social service leaders in Vancouver’s downtown east-side, and mentored Pacific Integral’s Generating Transformative Change program. 

Rochelle began training with Nora Bateson during the pandemic and became a certified Warm Data host. She delights in offering Warm Data Labs where people learn together, in wonder.
