Community Organizing Leadership Training Framework Poster

A beautiful rendition of the community organizing framework taught by Professor Marshall Ganz Community organizing is a leadership practice that enables a constituency, typically one that lacks resources and power, to identify solutions to shared problems and take collective action. Harvard Professor Marshall Ganz has developed a framework used to teach organizing in a variety of settings. Training in organizing differs from traditional individual-level advocacy in that it pushes us to ask the fundamental questions “who are my people?” and “how can I build power amongst them to create change?” This people-power framework emphasizes the need to explore the values of the people in our recovery community and to enable them to create the changes they desire under conditions of uncertainty. This poster covers the five leadership practices of organizing: public narrative, relationship-building, structuring teams, strategy and action.
