Own Collective Agency: a weekly civics meeting
Roll back
description |
This is kind of a weekly Agile meeting: what's happened, what are we working on, what's blocking us from moving forward that we'd like support or advice on? It focuses on "Collective Agency" overall, and also on people here working on their own thing.
"Collective Agency" is a cooperative group, and is the name of a place.
There is a Constitution, members have voting rights, people self-organize here, there is a Coordinating Council, with the main Community Organizer term-limited, and there are community workgroups that create educational events free of charge and open to the public.
Meeting new people and being around people doing a variety of work is why 95% of people are here.
Come to the new weekly civics meeting. It's called "Own Collective Agency" because that's what the goal is. Responsibilities you can have, ways you can be here, actions you can do, long-term planning, things you can know (want to know the budget, not just numbers but the context of what they mean? we want to share that with you). By learning and doing, you'll support what happens here overall.
Coordinating Council members Alex, Fitz, and Emanuel will be there.
What is ownership? Fitz says about what we have here: "To do these things requires ownership." Alex says that the good meaning of ownership is "responsibility." Ownership by who? For what? What does it mean to own the equivalent of a very small city, which is a workplace? What might you want to assist with, to give advice on, to do, to own?
As we have grown from tens of people to hundreds of people, how does the structure grow to support that?
What's the catch? It's that you can own part of this: you can be responsible for this place and group-of-groups staying and growing.
main organizer: Alex Linsker (503) 517-6900, Twitter: @alexlinsker or Council@CollectiveAgency.co

Learn about operations and ownership/responsibility here. Ask questions. Volunteer to work/participate on something. Then learn and give advice. Then be responsible for it / own it.
This is an educational, free of charge, open to the public meeting, weekly 10am-10:45am on Wednesday mornings.

Vision Planning for the Community-Minded
Roll back
description |
Do you often consider the underlying motives behind your small business, website, open source project, discussion group, visual arts, nonprofit, startup, or any other kind of work? We're working together to develop phrasing for our vision plans that describes the reason we're doing whatever it is we're doing. However, instead of or usual fifteen minute, one-on-one coaching sessions, we'll be focusing on one presenter, Cheri Anderson!
Cheri Anderson does holistic coaching for small businesses and startups as well as executive coaching for Nike. She's a familiar face here, having coached two previous sessions, and will be introducing an important concept, "What is my vision?" We will have a brief meet-and-great before Cheri is introduced and we began to answer that question. It'll be fun working in groups to refine each other's statements and in the end have a completed vision statement.
Past presenters have been: Mark Grimes (NedSpace), Catherine Poole (social services & e-textiles) and Russ Finkelstein (formerly Idealist Portland). Come mentor and be mentored by various professionals from UX consultants to sculptors - for free!
Third Mondays: 7-9pm
Please RSVP. Plancast is best, so people can see you're coming.

Vision Planning for the Community-Minded
Roll back
description |
Whether a website, open source project, discussion group, visual art, nonprofit startup, or any kind of work, the main focus of the people who show up will be for the benefit of a group or groups of people (the "community"). Weâll have fun and develop a vision planning community of our own.
Do you not yet have a vision statement written out, or would you like to tweak or revise the one you have? Do you say things like, "I'm hoping someone will want to contribute to my project, it is for the public good after all?" Then this workshop is for you.
Third Mondays: 7-9pm Monday January 16th. Past coaches/consultants include: Russ Finkelstein (formerly Idealist Portland), Mark Grimes (NedSpace), Cheri Anderson (executive coach for Nike, startups, and small business owners), Cat Poole (social services and e-textiles).
Many others, from UX consultants to sculptors, will be here. Come mentor and be mentored here! Free of charge.
The main questions about your vision: What are your underlying motives? What phrasing describes the reason why youâre doing this?
If related questions come up organically, weâll explore. These questions of vision are where groups like âCollective Agencyâ began.
In 2 hours we will meet-and-greet (go around and say what weâre working on and what weâd like to happen with it), have a brief overview, then invest most of the time in one-on-one coaching in 15 minute sessions.
Please RSVP. Plancast is best, so people can see you're coming. Email alexlinsker@gmail.com or tweet @alexlinsker with any questions. |

Westside Proggers - VoteFair ranking: Math-based voting power for the 99%
Roll back
description |
Just-released open-source software that implements VoteFair ranking is now available to help us reach higher levels of voting fairness. You do voting when you click on Google search results, and you use voting results when you view the star rating of an Amazon product. Now learn how voting really works, how it is usually miscalculated -- intentionally in the case of elections -- and how it can be done to fully extract the wisdom in a group. Learn the math behind the puppet strings that connect politicians to the biggest campaign contributors. (Partial spoiler: The biggest unfairness is hidden in primary elections.) Also learn the math that eventually will cut those puppet strings. Along the way you will learn that there are different kinds of popularity.
This event is a meeting of the Westside Proggers, a group of language-agnostic programmers who like to talk about pioneering new frontiers in software.
Please RSVP (and reserve slices of free pizza) at the Westside Proggers forum on Google.

Own Collective Agency: a weekly civics meeting
Roll back
description |
nil |
→ |
This is kind of a weekly Agile meeting: what's happened, what are we working on, what's blocking us from moving forward that we'd like support or advice on? It focuses on "Collective Agency" overall, and also on people here working on their own thing.
"Collective Agency" is a cooperative group in the form of an unincorporated association, and is the name of a place.
There is a Constitution, members have voting rights, people self-organize here, there is a Coordinating Council, with the main Community Organizer term-limited, and there are community workgroups that create educational events free of charge and open to the public.
Meeting new people and being around people doing a variety of work is why 95% of people are here.
Come to the new weekly civics meeting: the second ever is January 11th. It's called "Own Collective Agency" because that's what the goal is. Responsibilities you can have, ways you can be here, actions you can do, long-term planning, things you can know (want to know the budget, not just numbers but the context of what they mean? we want to share that with you). By learning and doing, you'll support what happens here overall.
Coordinating Council members Alex, Fitz, and Emanuel will be there.
What is ownership? Fitz says about what we have here: "To do these things requires ownership." Alex says that the good meaning of ownership is "responsibility." Ownership by who? For what? What does it mean to own the equivalent of a very small city, which is a workplace? What might you want to assist with, to give advice on, to do, to own?
As we have grown from tens of people to hundreds of people, how does the structure grow to support that?
What's the catch? It's that you can own part of this: you can be responsible for this place and group-of-groups staying and growing.

What does it mean to own the equivalent of a very small city, which is a workplace? What might you want to assist with, to give advice on, to do, to own?
As we have grown from tens of people to hundreds of people, how does the structure grow to support that?
What's the catch? It's that you can own part of this: you can be responsible for this place and group-of-groups staying and growing.

Own Collective Agency: a weekly civics meeting
Roll back
description |
nil |
→ |
This is kind of a weekly Agile meeting: what's happened, what are we working on, what's blocking us from moving forward that we'd like support or advice on? It focuses on "Collective Agency" overall, and also on people here working on their own thing.
"Collective Agency" is a cooperative group in the form of an unincorporated association, and is the name of a place.
There is a Constitution, members have voting rights, people self-organize here, there is a Coordinating Council, with the main Community Organizer term-limited, and there are community workgroups that create educational events free of charge and open to the public.
Meeting new people and being around people doing a variety of work is why 95% of people are here.
Come to the new weekly civics meeting: the second ever is January 11th. It's called "Own Collective Agency" because that's what the goal is. Responsibilities you can have, ways you can be here, actions you can do, long-term planning, things you can know (want to know the budget, not just numbers but the context of what they mean? we want to share that with you). By learning and doing, you'll support what happens here overall.
