Meetings! We’ve all experienced what it’s like when they go wrong: conversations that go nowhere and leave people feeling frustrated. Additionally, our approach to planning meetings doesn't always take into consideration how race, gender, power and privilege show up in our teams--and so these spaces often replicate the very types of power dynamics we should be trying to dismantle in the world around us.
This online workshop is a space to learn effective meeting habits, develop skills to plan a meeting, explore how to wield power to unlock everyone’s gifts and contributions, get the right voices in the room, and guide conversations toward meaningful goals.
Who is this training for?
This is a space for people who work at nonprofit organizations and/or in social justice movement spaces, and who want to explore practical skills to strengthen their approach to guiding teams through meetings. If you are frequently tasked with (or are just stepping into) facilitating groups in nonprofits or movement spaces, come learn with us!
In this online workshop, you will:
- Learn how to use the “purpose, outcome, and process” (P.O.P) format to design a meeting
- Learn how to center marginalized voices in meetings
- Learn strategies for interrupting oppressive power dynamics in meetings
