Learn how businesses & organizations
around the world are "thinking smarter in circles"
Dynamic Governance (aka Sociocracy) is an elegantly simple, innovative
new method of governing that creates more inclusive and efficient
organizations, while creating better human relationships.
Join Dynamic Governance pioneers and experts John Buck and Manfred
Friedrich for an introductory talk on Friday, January 9th, as they
share the ideas and concepts of Dynamic Governance as a way to empower
and bring out the best in people working together for a common
purpose.
First developed and honed in the Netherlands, Dynamic Governance has
spread around the world and is currently used by several thousand
organizations with inspiring results. Working in a wide range of settings
including families, volunteer groups, community organizations,
non-profits, government agencies, schools and universities, small
businesses and large corporations, Dynamic Governance rewires the
decision-making process to mine the intelligence and creativity that
already exists in an organization.
Structured around self-organizing circles that make policy decisions
and assign tasks and responsibilities through various group processes
that engage the perspectives, skills, and inspirations of all the members
of a group, Dynamic Governance then strategically connects these
individual circles to a wider interlinked organizational network.
John Buck co-authored We the People: Consenting to a Deeper
Democracy, a book about a new, more inclusive way of governing
ourselves using Dynamic Governance; and is the Division Director of The
Sociocracy Group in the Netherlands, consulting with businesses,
nonprofits, and collaboration councils around the world.
Manfred Friedrich is entrepreneur, organization builder, and mediator who
uses Dynamic Governance to support organizations whose intentions are to
foster collaboration, equality, personal growth, transparency and better
decisions.
