Description In this companion article to Filling the Well podcast episode "Shifting Power Dynamics in Philanthropy," deepen your understanding of power and learn about power-shifting practices that you can integrate into your organizational culture or community.

“Power is the ability to achieve a purpose. Whether or not it is good or bad depends upon the purpose,” said Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. What purpose does power serve in your organization or community? If you could shift how power shows up, what might change?

In my role as Vice President of Learning, Evaluation, Engagement at NAS and Strategy Consultant with 3DCC, I work to support arts and culture leaders who drive inspiring change for the future. Understanding power is essential in driving change. To advance equity and create a society that better serves everyone, it is imperative we work to shift the imbalance in existing power structures.

This article will help you consider how you could shift power and unlock creativity in your organization and beyond. Then, put it into practice with facilitated brainstorming exercises and examples from the field.
