How to transition organizations toward Indigenous consensus practices

Our community organization wants to center Indigenous approaches to consensus and decision-making but our board meetings are still running on Robert's Rules and some members think we're being performative while others think we're not going far enough. Nobody knows how to actually make the transition.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Moving from hierarchical to relational decision-making requires everyone to unlearn embedded patterns simultaneously, which feels chaotic to those who need structure to feel safe.
