Few things diminish our ability to distribute power within our movement homes and organizations more than unclear decision making protocols and practices. Creating clarity on how decisions are made and implemented, and therefore how people can impact important decisions in our movement spaces, can open a wealth of creative energy, democratize participation, and help groups overcome stuckness or stagnation.
So how do we decide the right way to make decisions in our liberatory spaces, including movement homes and social justice organizations?
Join Hope Ghazala from NYC Network Of Worker Cooperatives for Module 4 of Collaborate to Co-Liberate: Decision Making. Hope will share concrete tools for choosing and implementing some of the most common and effective decision making methods in organizations practicing democratic leadership. Together we’ll explore how to determine which decision making method is most appropriate given the context, and how to navigate power in decision making.
This offering is essential for:
- Organizers, activists and changemakers who want to sharpen their toolbox of decision making practices in order to democratize movement spaces and intervene on misuses of power in our movement homes
- Organizations practicing liberatory governance who want to hone, refine, and clarify their internal decision making protocols to support greater ease, democracy, and participation in collective decision making
- Movement comrades and process nerds who want to build new skills around decision making in their movement homes
Includes a Follow up Q&A April 30, 10-11:30 PT 1-2:30 ET
