SUMMARY:Sociocracy 3.0 Introduction with Eco-Social Entrepreneur Toolset
DESCRIPTION:The challenge before us \nComplex and fast changing environments are outpacing the capacity of organisations\, communities and networks to adapt. Despite innovative alternatives for improving decision making and governance processes\, a lack of adequate knowledge\, understanding and skills can leave groups frustrated and falling back onto more conventional\, yet ineffective ways to try and cope. \nWe all recognise the need for change \nWe want to be sure that investing precious time into learning new ways of doing things will give us practical skills and methods we can confidently use. \nWe are called to develop alternative solutions for addressing old problems\, and to assume a new perspective that honours our individual needs while addressing the urgency for more integrated and interdependent human organisation. \nSociocracy 3.0 – a social technology for our time \nSociocracy 3.0 offers a reliable framework to tap collective intelligence in order for us to make more conscious and effective decisions together. It facilitates co-creativity\, fosters transparency and guarantees the equivalence of all participants. \nSociocracy acts as “social technology” for unlocking ownership\, engagement and a sense of purpose while promoting respect\, diversity and inclusion. \nIt’s an invitation to bring greater awareness to the underlying things that motivate us to act. \nWho is this workshop for? \nThis workshop is particularly suited to Entrepreneures and Oragnizations that promote solutions and models based on Ecological and Social wellbeing. \nCOOPs\, eco-social Entreprises\, Co-housing and eco-village projects\, urban co-working hubs\, eco-social Innovation catalysts and incubators\, daring and mindful IT start-ups. \nDuring the workshop you will: \nDiscover what Sociocracy 3.0 is and why it helps organisations to become more sustainable\, resilient and elegant.\nKnow how sociocracy’s core methodology and principles free potential and support system wide optimisation.\nDevelop skills you can apply within your groups\, organisations and entreprises\nLearn methods to facilitate collaborative processes\, draw on the collective intelligence of groups\, and guarantee the potential for equivalence in decision making.\nDevelop a “solutions focus” and explore the creative opportunities lying buried at the heart of seemingly challenging situations. \nAbout the workshop journey \nOur journey together will focus mainly on a deep exploration of Sociocracy 3.0 principles and processes and will consist of a balanced programme with a combination of theory\, practice and reflection. \nTo enrich your learning journey\, we will integrate a number of additional\, complimentary add ons for developing your Entrepreneurial skills and knowledge: Participatory Facilitation\, Theory ”U” (Otto SCharmer)\, Deep Ecology – The work that Reconnects (Joanna Macy)\, Process Work and Worldwork (Arnold Mindel)\, Empowered Fundraising (from Dragon Dreaming – John Croft). \nArrival on the 8th of April. \nThe course days are 9\, 10\, 11\, 12 and 13th of April. \nDeparture on the morning 14th. \nMore about sociocracy and Sociocracy 3.0 \nSociocracy\, which means “governance by peers or colleagues“\, is an increasingly popular system design\, governance and decision-making method based on the principles of transparency\, equivalence\, and effectiveness. It transforms organizations culturally and structurally\, enabling collective intelligence to lead the evolution of an organization\, fulfilling team members while creating impressive results. \nSociocracy 3.0 builds on The Sociocratic Method and integrates principles from Holacracy and Non-Violent Communication. It: \n…utilises people as living sensors that pick up changes and respond promptly by creating strategies to satisfy organisational needs as they arise.\n…meets organizations where they are and supports them in continuously improving work and services through a painless and iterative approach\, and at their own pace.\n…helps organizations make the best use of talent already present\, and enables them to grow structures for effective collaboration. \nWho is using sociocracy 3.0? \nSociocracy 3.0 has been applied worldwide in corporations\, small businesses\, non-profits and non-governmental organizations\, grass-roots movements\, nursing homes\, colleges\, eco-villages and cohousing communities\, religious organizations\, private schools\, Agile/Lean teams and international professional and educational membership organizations. \nCourse language \nThe course will be held in English and there will be translation support organized according to needs. \nLocation \nThe workshop will be a residential retreat taking place in Izvorul Muresului in the Carpathian mountains near the city of Gheorgheni. \nPrice & Registration \nWe have a tear price system that includes the course fee\, simple accommodations and vegetarian meals. : \n550 Euro – Thriving package – for established professionals\, companies and organizations. \n375 Euro – Start-up package – for start-ups and ‘on their way’ professionals \nFor those of you with a deep sense of desire to participate but unable to afford the prices: this is the perfect oportunity to start a dialogue with us.
