Soziokratie in der Praxis: Gemeinsame Entscheidungsfindung für regenerative Gemeinschaften

How can sociocracy help organizations and communities navigate complexity while building more resilient, inclusive, and regenerative ways of working?

In this session, Ted Rau, Filipa Pimentel, and Roberto Spano explore how sociocracy is being applied across diverse contexts—from grassroots movements and volunteer networks to nonprofits, enterprises, governments, and the arts. Through practical examples and lived experience, they demonstrate how collaborative governance can strengthen participation, improve decision-making, and foster distributed leadership.

Learn how sociocracy supports organizations in becoming more adaptive, transparent, and effective while cultivating trust, shared responsibility, and collective intelligence. Whether you’re leading a community initiative, nonprofit, cooperative, or social enterprise, this conversation offers valuable insights into governance models designed for today’s complex challenges.
