Traditionally, non-profits are governed using a hierarchical structure which organizes work autocratically. The board of trustees creates the strategy, from which the executive director develops the tactics, which in turn guides the staff and volunteers in the work that supports their purpose. Sociocracy, also called Dynamic Governance, replaces the autocratic governance. It allows a greater level of innovation and creativity. All stakeholders become uncommonly empowered and passionate in their roles to support the aim, defined as a product, service or result that will enable an organization to realize its vision or mission an exchange object. Dynamic Governance mobilizes the commitment and creativity of people using self-guiding teams. It makes available all the intelligence in the group. People reliably take responsibility for their work and are able to respond to adverse conditions quickly and effectively. Once Sociocracy is implemented, the board of trustees, executive director, staff, volunteers and other stakeholders of Global Awareness, Local Action will more proficiently proceed towards achieving this organization's aim.
