    • Using Your Power for Good in the Workplace

      Ways to use power to help others diagram

      Power exists in all of our relationships, and it shapes the roles we play in each others’ lives. However, it’s not distributed evenly. Sometimes, it can be gained through expertise, knowledge, or skills—but other times, it’s tied into social and cultural factors like race, identity, and wealth. With this in mind, it’s helpful to reframe the purpose of power in our lives. It’s about more than just personal status and privilege; it’s also a responsibility and a tool we can use to help effect positive, meaningful change.

    • Craft a Human-Centered Change Statement with These 4 Tips

      Craft a Change Statement

      What do you want to change? Even if you know in your bones that change in your organization or your network is desperately needed, it can be hard to put into words what it is exactly that needs to shift...and why. Defining this change and the desired outcome you seek is the first step toward building a plan that will deliver lasting change. Bryan Walker, IDEO partner and managing director and head of the Design for Change studio, says that before embarking on a change journey, you need to write a change statement to guide your work.
