Distributed Leadership Feedback Sessions

Our feedback sessions are designed to help organizations cultivate a distributed or shared leadership culture, where power and decision-making is inclusive and equitable. 

Bridge Live Arts developed from a deep commitment to distributed leadership and equity. We understand that communication and dialogue with others in and outside our field are essential to putting dance in dialogue with movements for social change and supporting dance in dialogue with the world. In support of our communities, we seek to help you transform your organization into one where distributed leadership, equity, and inclusion are not just goals but realities.

​

Bridge Live Arts’ staff does not consider ourselves experts in these areas, and as an organization, our model continues to shift and evolve. Still, we acknowledge the hard and challenging work we have done to distribute leadership, and we have found that others can benefit from our experiences and feedback.

KEY AREAS OF FOCUS

Distributing Power

True shared leadership requires a fundamental shift in how power is allocated and exercised within an organization

 

Our feedback sessions can support you by:

  • Sharing structures and processes to help identify methods to share and map power across all group, project, or organization levels. 

  • Speaking to creating opportunities for underrepresented groups to take on leadership roles to help foster a collaborative environment where all team members can contribute.

  • Discussing decision-making frameworks and resources.

Pay Equity & Financial Transparency

Equitable pay and financial transparency are foundational to trust and fairness in any organization.

 

Our feedback sessions can support you by:

  • Sharing segments of our process and research to move from pay equality to pay equity.

  • Discussing transparent compensation policies and practices.

  • Sharing resources and findings from our workshops and series on financial transparency.

TESTIMONIALS

​"B.L.A.’s work in distributed leadership is a much-needed model for just, equitable governance. Their transparency and openness in sharing how they have meaningfully moved through their transformation in leadership with care and attention provides an invaluable roadmap to others for how to craft and imagine their own transitions and/or how to deepen the work they are already doing. An important resource to the field!"

Yanira Castro, Interdisciplinary Artist, founding member of Creating New Futures (CNF)
