Two-day workshop

Distributed organizing deep dive

As we continue to get requests to help evaluate or build out distributed organizing approaches, we’ve created a more accessible workshop offering to accelerate adoption. The training packages our research and frameworks into a two-day workshop meant to kickstart your planning and line your program up with the best practices of the most successful distributed organizers out there today.

The workshop plan includes:

  • Mapping of existing distributed organizing plan against our framework of six essential elements of successful distributed organizing campaigns
  • Facilitated discussions to identify current campaign design gaps and organizational challenges
  • Facilitated brainstorms/creative sessions to generate possible solutions to gaps and challenges

Custom internal workshops

Engaging, organizing, and mobilizing your base in the 21st century

Drawing upon lessons from high-level engagement success stories such as the Bernie Sanders campaign, the global climate movement and the Fightfor15$, this internal series of problem-solving sessions will outline the social trends that draw staff and supporters to engage more deeply with causes and institutions while also presenting successful management models that drive mass participation towards shared goals and milestones.

Participants come away with these key tools and skills:

  • How to open up to people power in your org
  • How to balance hybrid bottom-up/top-down structures within the same organization
  • Guiding grassroots power towards concrete outcomes
  • Tracking the impact and “return on effort” of bottom-up engagement projects
