Safety and shelter: What’s lost?

by Finn Patraic

When you buy through links on our site, we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. However, this does not influence our evaluations.

Next week, I will run the first prototype of ‘Safety and shelterprogramWith a session on ‘Loss‘. This work examines how people feel disconnected, moved or lost, and our responsibility Social leaders To direct for the entire system.

I will use these prototypes to listen, to hear what people say, but I also have a light structure for the things that started. We will consider four things: a sense of securityOur degree of certainty, our individual agency and our feeling of control.

This work is meta-tribal, not a supporter. It is intended to connect through the difference and to examine our responsibility for directing for everyone. But part of this is to understand how loss is felt, in particular because change is an act of violence to our community constructions, identifyand organization. Even when necessary or desired, we can always lose something, even if our cohesion or our certainty.

I will use the idea of ​​'Organization as ecosystem“ Since the work of wider silent leadership in this space, which considers how we are each interdependent, and how we all throw shadows. It takes a perspective that people can lose their voiceBe reduced to silence, simply because the shadows move around them.

During this first session, we will also consider “hope” and I will ask the group to describe “Hope Actions”. This concerns our agency and the way we go through difficult paths.

I am very pragmatic about this work: it can fail or evolve. I just have a small group for prototypes, which gives me the opportunity to find my language, rhythm, structure and confidence to move it forward, or learn and put it aside.
