by Alissa Schwartz (Author)
The workplace, in both its physical and virtual manifestations, offers productive possibilities and space for joy. Organizational Performance Art: Holding Space for Joy and Possibility is a vibrant memoir and inspirational manual that examines how the concepts and practices of several performance arts traditions and philosophies -- avant-garde theater, social constructionism, and shamanic practice -- support organizations and communities in communal thriving and liberation.
An artistic stance towards organizational change does not just offer band-aid solutions to complex challenges; it is a way of harnessing imagination and a willingness to dance with the unknown in service to social justice and equity. Organizational Performance Art shows how to turn drab workplace routine into creative performance, isolation into positive connectivity, anxiety into openness, and hierarchal rigidity into collaborative teamwork.
In a world teeming with trauma and inequity, Schwartz offers her readers space to thrive. To imagine. To dance.
