When we write Version 2 of this booklet, let’s incorporate ideas from this presentation I gave on how sociocracy works in a movement as opposed to an organization.
Recorded presentation: Sociocracy in Youth Activism: How Youth Power Coalition is Building a Sociocratic Movement (Deborah Chang) - Sociocracy For All
The big differences I identified were:
- Membership = Open by Default, Consent to Confirm
- Policies = Boundaries + Resources, Not Requirements
- Aims = Sensed, Not Set
- Domains = Held By Those Most Impacted
