Shifting societal structures begins with unpacking how power operates within ourselves, our relationships, and our institutions.

 Big Soul partners with philanthropic leaders and grantee organizations to analyze and realign power across three distinct levels: personal leadership, interpersonal dynamics, and systemic design.

Our integrated model combines an immersive foundational workshop, an ongoing monthly peer learning forum, and customized one-on-one advising to ensure teams have the collective capacity and strategy needed to drive lasting, structural change. 

All social relations are laden with power. Getting out from under dominant power relations and mastering liberatory power is perhaps the most essential skill for changemakers. Mastering power is about understanding and using patterns. In this workshop, you learn how power shows up at the personal, social, and systemic levels. You explore the key

ways that power is developed, deployed, and transformed.

This is a 1-hour online problem-solving space for grantees implementing power strategies.

This is multi-layered advising designed for changemakers who need to decode, navigate, and reshape complex power dynamics. Moving far beyond traditional leadership development, we focus explicitly on how power is held, wielded, and balanced in change work.

We deliver a “Mastering the 3 Levels of Power” talk, as well as custom talks. We also provide the opportunity for power funders to meet and learn from each other via quarterly forums.
