Tools We Love: Liberating Structures

This week we are using a lot of Liberating Structures and figured now is the best time to highlight these amazing tools.  We could write a ton about this tool, but it has already been done for us. Below is an except from the Liberating Structure website. Enjoy and reach out if you have questions.  There are Liberating Structure user groups and we often use them in our workshops

Liberating Structures make it easy for leaders of all levels to create conditions for people to work at the top of their intelligence and creativity. In this environment, people thrive and enjoy their work. It is also the path to top performance.

Practice is the only way to discover the amazing differences that Liberating Structures can spark. Since practice is also the only way to master the use of Liberating Structures, we focused our attention on “how to” descriptions.  We have tried to make them practical, easy to follow and concrete.

We have chosen not to copyright any of our work and instead publish it under a Creative Commons License. We want to make it as easy as possible for everyone to feel free to use, copy, and disseminate this material and make his or her corner of the world a better place.

Here is a fun video with Henri Lipmanowicz and Keith McCandless, the creators of Liberating Structures.
