The ten moves are like ten ingredients, and when you learn how to use them, you can do anything with them. If you're a useless cook like me, you just look at this and you'd go, i don't know what to do with that hummyn i see eggs. But if you're an experienced cook, yousay, great. Wow. I could do so many things with this. So that's what it's like. You know, you can, you can make,. you can make meals for the next next month with that.
The world faces enormously complex and existential challenges. While specific solutions might feel elusive, it’s safe to say that in order to address the most polarizing issues of our time, we’ll need more and better collaboration—more and better tools to help us work together across deep differences and make progress.
According to Adam Kahane, a director at Reos Partners, that means the world requires more and better facilitators. In his most recent book, Facilitating Breakthrough: How to Remove Obstacles, Bridge Differences, and Move Forward Together, Adam proposes a theory and practice of what he calls “transformative facilitation,” which focuses less on getting (or forcing) people to do things and more on removing obstacles to greater contribution, connection, and equity.
In this episode of Brave New Work, Adam shares with Aaron Dignan and Rodney Evans how he’s reimagining this work and who we think of as “facilitators” in the first place.
