Effective Flow of Information

Sociocracy is very effective at creating flow of information between the broadest and the narrowest perspectives from which people work at the University.

Fosters cooperation and trust

Sociocracy shifts us away from the old command-and-control structures with which most of us grew up -- structures that often fostered fear, control, and competition among people. What we have instead now is a system that fosters cooperation and trust, allowing room for a new way of working together. It's beautiful to witness.

Giving Volunteers an Essential Voice

Sociocracy has helped our membership and attendance at events expand tremendously. Now our volunteers show up, do great work running the dances, and come back to do more. I think they really know they have an essential voice in the organization.

Powerful Decisions

Watching a group of people in the same business with differences of opinion make decisions they all agree to in 15-20 minutes is a powerful thing. After seeing that, new people will want to learn it.

High Quality Employee Engagement

Recently, the University of Regina unveiled the results of a survey on employee engagement in its various faculties and units, the second of its kind in two years...the Institut distinguished itself not only by a high level of employee engagement, but especially by a high level of psychological safety, cooperation and individual citizenship behaviour towards their colleagues. We attribute these results largely to the Institut’s decision-making culture: dynamic governance (sociocracy). The sociocracy premise is simple. You do not change the relationships in an organization by changing the leader or the organizational chart, but rather by changing the structure of communication and decision-making.

Excellent value from training courses

I learned so much from your “Foundations of Sociocracy” and “Facilitating Sociocracy” courses, and I use the skills in every meeting and every organization I’m in...everyone has a chance to speak - that is an important skill I learned in the training. The quieter people often have very useful things to say. I learned how to get people to stick to the subject, rather than going off on tangents during a meeting. Sociocracy has been a huge boost to my abilities to facilitate meetings and lead organizations. I highly recommend these courses.

Creative Solutions & Good Vibes

What a valuable tool sociocracy is. I have been working with Sheella Mierson, a gifted instructor of this process, and she is great! With only one of the techniques I learned from her we were able to cut through a thorny impasse in our Board and generate a creative solution with good vibes all around. WOW.
