Democratizing Work Primer (Virtual)
What does it take to share power and practice democratic decision-making in an intentional, structured way?
In this introductory workshop, GWI provides a window into the kinds of relational shifts that facilitate a culture of shared leadership. We touch on the tools, policies and practices that support democratic decision making, and offer a glimpse into how they can be put into action. You will emerge with a sense of how to start taking steps towards sharing power in your organization or working group.
In 2019, the Good Work Institute team made the collective decision to move from a hierarchical organization to a Worker Self-Directed Nonprofit. Together, we built a system of shared governance that serves the needs of our organization while honoring our unique individual contributions. We are continuously evolving our sense of how to practice shared leadership. You can read more about our own journey in this blog series: Sharing Power.
