Cohousing-L Mailing List: If you've been wanting to know more about Sociocracy . . .

[Diana Leafe Christian (diana]

Hello,

        This post is for anyone who would like to learn Sociocracy for their 
community or forming cohousing group. 
        Or if you know Sociocracy a little now and would like a review, or if 
you know someone who’d like to learn it. 

        I'm teaching a 10-week Sociocracy Webinar on Mondays, Jan 6 to March 7. 
With 30-35 hours of total instruction time, the online course  consists of:

        (1) 2-hour weekly online live practice sessions (on Zoom) with myself 
the other webinar participants. We’ll practice that week’s topic (see topics 
below) and answer questions.

        (2)  60-90 minutes per week for each topic of short watch-ahead videos 
of my presentations of Sociocracy step-by-step, and visual, graphic-rich 
handouts. The videos include short readers’ theater skits and songs (acted and 
sung by past workshop participants) on the five meeting processes of 
Sociocracy. Here’s an 11-minute Sample webinar video: ’’Seven Parts'' of 
Sociocracy https://tinyurl.com/Soc7PartsVideo
        And a sample handout: Sociocracy: “Effective, Efficient, & Fun” 
https://tinyurl.com/SocEffFunHandout

        (3) Plus 10-15–minutes of home-study review of each week's topic after 
each session.    

        There’s a deep discount during the Super Early Bird period — now 
through November 30 — and further discounts for 4 or more people from the same 
group who register.
