The philanthropy publication, Inside Philanthropy (https://www.insidephilanthropy.com/) has a simple goal: to “pull back the curtain on one of the most powerful and dynamic forces shaping society.” The publication has built a reputation for digging deeply into our sector’s activities and motivations – and providing accessible and timely information. In this Ask-Me-Anything style session, we will meet up with Inside Philanthropy’s founder and editor, David Callahan, to get his take on philanthropy’s current priorities, where we are headed, and how Inside Philanthropy helps to increase transparency and accountability.

Lynda E. Frost of Lynfro Consulting will guide a lively discussion on Liberating Structures with a focus on case studies from philanthropy consultants. This is Part 2 of our two-part discussion on Liberating Structures.

Have you experienced nightmare meetings? The one where you’re guiding a group and only the one brave soul participates? Or the brain ”storm” that barely creates a puddle? What about the leisurely stroll through an agenda without a clear actionable decision in sight?

This workshop will orient you to Liberating Structures, a repertoire of 33 different facilitation methods developed using natural learning methods and complexity theory. These techniques quickly foster lively participation in groups of any size, making it possible to truly include and unleash everyone.

Come and engage with 21/64 and NNCG members who have experience in implementing this set of tools which are designed to make facilitated meetings more fun and more effective. By employing Liberating Structures methods virtually or in-person, gatherings become seriously playful and deeply engaging, leading to meaningful results. You’ll walk away with a new perspective on meetings and a few simple tools to wake up your own meetings.
