Sociocracy is a system of governance and constant decision making that unlocks the potential of highly democratic, often member-led communities.

It seeks to create psychologically safe environments and organizations through human-centric approaches and radical transparency. People feel included in decision-making and empowered to move work forward at pace when applying these principles and practices.

Conditions exist for this decision-making approach to take root when everyone is clear about what needs to get done and folks are authentically committed to the continuous improvement of themselves, their team (or “circle”), and the community.

How might we bring a little more sociocracy to worklife?
