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:Small is Beautiful: "Sociocracy light" for small organizations
DESCRIPTION:Description\n\n\n\nAre you interested in sociocracy but in a small organization … where maybe it’s not worth to work with so much structure? \n\n\n\nThis class is perfect if you: \n\n\n\n if you’re in a unit or organization with 5-10 people\, and \n\n\n\n not planning to grow any time soon (i.e. not a start up) \n\n\n\n You like to keep some things informal\, while also adding a bit more structure and clarity.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTopics\n\n\n\n What parts of sociocracy are useful for a small organization? \n\n\n\n What parts of more informal systems are worth keeping?  \n\n\n\n Where is more structure needed? \n\n\n\n What can we\, and what do we need to do as a next step?  \n\n\n\n\n\nIn these 4 hours we will: \n\n\n\n\nAnalyse what is working for your current system right now – and what isn’t?\n\n\n\nHabits that support coherence and flow\n\n\n\nWhat requires a group decision\, what doesn’t?\n\n\n\nClarity\, structure and roles – what do we need?
