Making Decisions Collectively with Alicia Bell

The Shared Power Podcast: Notes on Collective Leadership with Mia Henry

Dec 5 2023 • 41 mins

When we share power, we don’t have to take everything on ourselves…. ‘Many hands makes light work.’” - Alicia Bell

In this episode, Alicia Bell explains how slowing down to make decisions as a collective can enhance the experience of Shared Power and actually ensure the work happens more quickly.

“Slow is smooth, smooth is fast,” Alicia shares

And we know this requires collective trust: Can we trust the slow parts of the process… and trust that the foundational work will move us toward the future we envision?

This conversation dives deep into how fear of relinquishing control can keep us from sharing power in making decisions, why realignment is a necessary part of the process, and how to navigate and change societal expectations and assumptions through collective decision-making.
