This will be a 75 minute session dedicated to learning about and practicing 1:1 organizing, in preparation for our upcoming Googlers Against ICE Day of Visibility.
The first ~20 min will consist of a short presentation and skill share about the one-on-one organizing conversation. Our training borrows heavily from the Organizing 4 Power training. During the training portion of this session, we will briefly cover structured organizing conversations: what they are, how they help you build power and relationships in the workplace and will help you to learn how to make the best use of them.
The second half of this session is specifically devoted to practicing actual 1:1 conversations through role-play where participants will take turns playing both the coworker and the organizers.
We highly recommend folks to attend our session, even if you've done similar trainings in the past, so that we can develop our relational organizing skills through 1:1 conversations. We recognize how daunting it can feel to have these sorts of conversations in the workplace... but with proper preparation and practice, we can feel more confident to build power and connect with our coworkers!
