Episode summary:

Council, also known as group or community dialogue, is a process of coming together to engage in meaningful conversation and collective decision-making. It plays an important role in various contexts, including communities, organizations, and even therapeutic settings.

The council provides a platform for diverse perspectives and voices to be heard. By bringing together individuals with different backgrounds, experiences, and viewpoints, it allows for a more inclusive decision-making process. This can lead to better solutions, increased buy-in, and a stronger sense of community.

In this episode we learn from Jared Seide the founder of Center for Council, an organization delivering programs and training that promote communication, enhanced well-being, community building, and ways to foster compassion. The Center’s work supports a sustainable shift toward a more cooperative, creative, and engaged culture, transforming relationships, strengthening teamwork, fostering a sense of inclusion, and supporting health and wellbeing.
