We value knowledge highly in our tradition, embracing varieties of knowledge about things: thinking and ideas and theories. But we often devalue knowledge grounded in doing, making, and crafting. How might we benefit from the deep knowledge of makers and crafters and tradespeople as we imagine the beloved community?

Even today, where the average person works 12+ jobs in a lifetime, many companies continue to enjoy the committed and experienced labor of long term employees. These humans dedicate nearly their entire working lives to companies, contributing a wealth of dedicated expertise, wisdom, and skills over decades.
