Madelanne Rust D'Eye on - Power and the Group Body:
Revealing the embodied patterns that create power and how we can change them
Tickets: £5
Booking: via EVENTBRIGHT
HERE
Madelanne spent a decade supporting senior leadership teams to work with power,
enabling greater collaboration and shared decision-making across their
organisations. What she learned is that the biggest obstacle to changing power
in our group cultures lies within ourselves. While changing the structures and
systems of power is essential, bringing to life a more interconnected ethos also
requires addressing the inner attitudes, perceptions, and mind-body states that
make power feel how it feels, and that make its patterns seem true and obvious.
In this interactive talk, she explores practices for shifting power from the
inside-out. Drawing on her perspectives as a somatic psychotherapist, on
interpersonal neurobiology, and on her work with groups and leadership teams,
she reveals a truth hidden in plain sight: our neurobiological design gives us
an innate understanding of interconnection, which can guide and energise a new
paradigm for power if we learn to listen to it.
