SUMMARY:Free introduction: What is sociocracy?
DESCRIPTION:Are you tired of power games in your organizations? Do you have hope that collaboration in organizations could bring out the best in people? \n\n\n\nDo you think organizations could be places of synergy\, collaboration\, growth\, and deep and authentic connection? \n\n\n\nThis webinar is giving an overview of sociocracy. We will talk about: \n\n\n\n\nbetter listening\n\n\n\nconsent decision making and circle structure\n\n\n\nexamples from real life!\n\n\n\n\nPresenter\n\n\n\n\n\nThis month’s introductory webinar will be taught by Maheen Shafiabady. \n\n\n\nMaheen’s bio: I help human-centered leaders interested in a new way of working to harness the capacity and power of individuals for innovation and collaboration through distributed decision-making systems. As an organization development practitioner\, I see sociocracy as a clear method for building compassionate and productive teams. \n\n\n\nSociocracy found its way into my life when I provided consulting services to a CEO who wished to embed it across the organization. I fell in love with the concept\, am a Certified Practitioner\, soon-to-be-Certified Facilitator\, and am currently in Academy Level 2 to increase my comprehension and application. \n\n\n\nFrom a lived experience lens: My multi-cultural business experience as a people manager as well as a leadership development facilitator across multiple sectors has focused on building enduring cultures of learning and productivity. Some of my previous clients include Wikimedia Foundation; the City of San Jose; TecDia\, and private equity-held companies. \n\n\n\nFrom a formal education lens: I’ve earned an MS in Organization Development from the University of San Francisco\, a BS in Communication & Education from University of Illinois\, and currently serve as President for the Bay Area Organization Development Network. \n\n\n\nAnd finally: based in Santa Clara\, CA\, I love balancing simple joys like family game nights with planning her next adventure–whether multi-day wilderness backpacking\, road trips\, or learning a new language. \n\n\n\nFormat\n\n\n\nThis event will include a short welcome/check-in\, followed by an introductory presentation and some time for questions from participants. \n\n\n\nAccess to the webinar\n\n\n\nDidn’t get an email with the link? Check your spam folder! \n\n\n\n\nEvent time\n\n\n\n Tuesday\, June 2\, 2026 at 15:00 UTC / 11:00 EST \n\n\n\nEvent time in your time zone: \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n[ninja_form id=209]

SUMMARY:Sociocracy and me. Governance\, power-with and personal development
DESCRIPTION:See this event in all time zones. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout this event\n\n\n\nCo-founders Jerry and Ted have had countless conversations around the kitchen counter – about sociocracy\, client struggles\, ways to hold sociocracy\, and how it all connects to the bigger context. This series of events offers a summary of lessons learned.  \n\n\n\nIn this event on May 21\, the topic will be the relationship between sociocracy and individuals – how does sociocracy change people? How did Jerry and Ted change? What kinds of personal transformations help us learn power-within and power-with\, instead of power-over and power-under stances?  \n\n\n\nWhat’s hard about sociocracy? And what’s the contribution of modern-day individualism and concentration of power and wealth to those struggles and paradoxes?  \n\n\n\nJoin this conversation to deepen your understanding of sociocracy\, SoFA’s history\, and this moment in time. \n\n\n\nNote: all talks in the series are recorded\, and people who are registered will receive the recording. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout the anniversary series\n\n\n\nIt’s Sociocracy For All’s 10th birthday this year! To celebrate we are hosting a series of events to share our history\, lessons learned and how sociocracy can transform our inner and collective world.  \n\n\n\nCheck out the list of our anniversary events: \n\n\n\n\nJuly 1: Bigger context: sociocracy and transformative social systems\n\n\n\nMar 24: History of SoFA \n\n\n\nMay 7: SoFA online conference \n\n\n\nMay 21: Sociocracy and individuals\n\n\n\nJune 9: Sociocracy – individual\, collective\, society\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n System Notice: We are currently resolving a technical issue.

SUMMARY:30 minute Q&A Sessions (free or by donation)
DESCRIPTION:Find the time for your time zone. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDo you have lingering questions about using sociocracy in your organization? Or are you curious about issues that others might be having? Context is important – your organization’s situation is unique and it deserves attention.  \n\n\n\nJoin this 30-minute online Q&A session to ask a couple of certified sociocracy experts your burning questions. Members from Sociocracy for All’s NGOs and Nonprofits Sector Circle and the Cooperatives Sector Circle will join for this conversation to help you hone in on your particular group or organization’s implementation or sociocratic practice needs.  \n\n\n\nWe especially want to invite others working in the nonprofit sector and cooperatives\, but everyone’s invited\, regardless of your experience or level of knowledge about sociocracy. This session will not be recorded\, but we intend to schedule more sessions if there’s interest. If we cannot get to your question sufficiently during the session\, you may be able to schedule a follow up with a coach. \n\n\n\nThis is free and you can make a donation if you so wish. You may use the zoom link below to join.  \n\n\n\n\nZoom Link

SUMMARY:Group coaching: What’s the next step for me/us and sociocracy?
DESCRIPTION:Are you unsure how to go about learning more about sociocracy? How about moving forward in your organization? What are the options for getting deeper\, getting practice\, motivating your team to learn or use more sociocracy? Do you want someone to strategize with you?  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThis webinar is a 60min session where we will have 3 people ready to answer your questions. We will be in 3 rooms on 3 topic areas:  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n   Room 1 \n\n\n\n Individual learning – How can I learn more? How can I become a better facilitator or practitioner of sociocracy?\n\n\n\nThis makes the most sense if you already have some exposure to sociocracy (not complete beginners). \n\n\n\nWith Ted Rau \n\n\n\n\n\n   Room 2 \n\n\n\nGroup learning – How can my team get trained? What are easy ways to get my team on board? \n\n\n\nThis makes sense if you have a group that is wanting to learn with you. \n\n\n\nWith Zujeil Flores \n\n\n\n\n\n   Room 3 \n\n\n\nOrganizational implementation   – How can I prepare an implementation in my organization? Who should I talk to? How should I go about it?  \n\n\n\nThis makes sense if you know about sociocracy and you’re in an organization that isn’t sociocratic but could be.  \n\n\n\nWith Jerry Koch-Gonzalez \n\n\n\n\n\n\nYou will be able to submit your questions so come prepared! You will be able to switch between groups but it might be best to decide which group to attend. All breakouts will be recorded and you will receive a summary after the webinar.  \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nEvent date and time\n\n\n\nThis webinar will meet on Tuesday\, June 10 at 10-11am EDT / 7-8pm PT \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTickets\n\n\n\n$0 – $10 – This webinar is free\, however you may choose to make a donation to help us carry our mission forward. \n\n\n\n\nGet your ticket
