One of our purposes here at the Leadership School is to provide different theories and methods of leadership. There are hundreds of methods of leadership, and you have to find one that works the best for YOU! That's why I'm so excited to share this conversation with Ted Rau. I was intrigued that Ted lives in an intentional community where they practice a leadership method he calls Sociocracy. I wanted to know all about it - and now you can, too!

You'll learn:

- The Sociocracy leadership method
- How to put it into practice for your organization
- Why knowing who you are matters to your leadership

Ted Rau is a trainer, consultant, and co-founder of the non-profit organization Sociocracy For All.

He was born in Germany and earned his Ph.D. in linguistics in 2010. Afterward his Ph.D, he moved to the USA and fulfilled a long-held desire to live in an intentional community. He currently resides in a co-housing community located in Massachusetts with his five children and 70 neighbors.

Ted’s perspective is influenced by his interest in Nonviolent Communication and Social Justice, being part of a global sociocracy organization at work, a parent at home, and being a member of the transgender community.
