Course: Team and Process Facilitation if you don’t know about this course or have no idea, I don’t your writing paper because it make me re-write the whole thing.
Intent: This paper asks you to consider more deeply the responsibilities inherent in calling a meeting and to recognize when these responsibilities are carried well, by you or someone else. Please prepare a paper (approximately 1000 words) that addresses the following in distinct sections. Please use APA formatting (for in-text citations and end-of-paper reference list) as you refer to sources. Read the excerpt (pp. 74 – 97) from The Art of Gathering on generous authority.
A. Write a reflection on generous authority. You may want to take issue with the idea, explaining why you advocate for “chill†hosting; elaborate on the power or dilemmas posed by being a host with generous authority; or describe the conditions under which generous authority is merited and when it is not.
B. Next, describe your own meeting/gathering experiences related to exercising generous authority. When did you exercise, or experience someone else exercising, generous authority well and with insight? When did you abdicate, or experience someone else abdicating, responsibility for protecting, equalizing, and connecting the gathering participants? What was the outcome?
C. Finally, assess yourself as a convener-with-generous-authority. What do you do well? What skills and behaviors can you strengthen, so that your gatherings are stronger, more meaningful, and more effective? If you like, you can use Benefits and Concerns for this section, as long as you summarize your conclusions in sentences.
