Triple Pundit has just published the third of three articles by writer Sarah Lozanova on sociocracy (also called Dynamic Governance), a collaborative and highly effective organizational design and governance system for both for-profit companies and nonprofit organizations – “What Can a School Teach Us about Organizational Agility?”
The article focuses on Rainbow Community School as a real-world example of the benefits for teachers, students, administrators, and families that come from running the school sociocratically. Executive Director Renee Owen speaks to how sociocracy supported difficult tasks such as rebranding and renaming the school and taking it from struggling financially to being at full capacity and with would-be students on a wait-list.
