Discernment is a neglected skill, often confused with judgment or being mean to others. As we work with groups we are often asked questions about what they should do and find ourselves answering, “could be a few different things.” That’s because life is complex, and many lives coming together like they do in groups, even more so. Firm answers of the “right way” and the “wrong way” are rare in relationships, which is why we must become good at discerning the most effective action given the current needs.
During this interactive workshop, co-authors of the newly released Cooperative Culture Handbook, Yana Ludwig and Karen Gimnig, will unpack why we need to develop our discernment skills to use for everything from membership processes to clarifying and balancing values to decision-making. This session will also include some exercises from the book and plenty of Q&A time.
