Reading + Shifting Power Dynamics - Practice Session
Making decisions and creating strategy in groups can be either helped or hindered by power dynamics. Positive and empowering group dynamics can catalyze breakthrough strategy. Oppressive and harmful dynamics can limit strategic options and prevent moving forward together. Inspired by Cyndi Suarez's Power Manual, this 2-hour in person practice session will give us a chance to practice reading power dynamics in groups with body language cues.
We will play with different ways that power can show up in groups and that facilitators can perceive these dynamics through our own embodiment and paying attention to what participants are communicating with their bodies. We'll experiment with facilitation practices that can support power shifts in groups and see what we can learn together! Sign up here.
