Exerting Subtle Influence—Even in THESE Times — Living Between Worlds 6.11

An unusually rich conversation this month. We're joined by Elizabeth Doty, exploring the horizons of "Subtle Influence: Activating Possibilities, Wherever We Are Situated, Whatever the Times." As Elizabeth, (formerly Director at the Erb Institute’s Corporate Political Responsibility Taskforce, and now with Third Side Strategies, engaging corporate leaders in how they exercise political influence) puts it, "I’d like to explore how we engage as humans situated in systems – both how we tend to withdraw or distort our energy when discouraged, and also how we can activate seemingly hidden values and possibilities in ourselves and others, across divides. This seems especially relevant in a time when some dangerous directions are gaining momentum, divides are hardening, and staying true to our values often seems to require 'fighting fire with fire'.” Check it out! And let us know in the comments what this conversation provoked for you—and let us know what you'll do about it! (Also, please "like" and "subscribe"! YouTube is much nicer to us when you do.) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This call is part of Living Between Worlds—with Courage, Dignity, and Power (a monthly "conversation for possibility" exploring how to live and work together in times of tumultuous change).
