Heterarchy

Okay, imagine you and your friends are deciding what game to play at recess. Instead of just one person being the boss and telling everyone what to do, everyone has a say and you all work together to decide what game to play. That's kind of like a heterarchy!

In a heterarchy, there isn't just one person in charge. Everyone has a voice and can make decisions together. It's like a big group where everyone is considered equal, and everyone can pitch ideas and work together to come up with the best solution.

For example, imagine you and your friends are building a fort. Instead of one person being the boss and telling everyone what to do, everyone works together to figure out what materials to use, how to build it, and who should do what. Everyone contributes and works together as a team.

So a heterarchy is basically a way of organizing things where everyone can contribute and work together as equals instead of having just one person in charge.
