*Enspiral are in Sydney, 5th December, hosting a workshop at the Michael
Crouch Innovation Centre, UNSW*

Enspiral began in 2008, when founder Joshua Vial realized he could earn
enough to live on by contracting as a computer programmer part time,
leaving the rest of the time to work on social good projects. Then he
realized that if he could support others to do the same, the total impact
would vastly increase.

By 2011, Enspiral had become a collective of passionate professionals -
people who could have been freelancing independently, but instead chose to
collaborate and work together to allow them the resources and flexibility
to pursue charity and social impact projects.

What happens when you get a bunch of ambitious, talented, values-driven
people together in a vibrant coworking space and empower them to think big
about positive impact? They launch social enterprise startups, of course.
Enspiral grew from a collective of individuals to a collective of more than
a dozen social enterprise ventures.

*About Enspiral*

Enspiral is a global network of entrepreneurs and startups working on stuff
that matters. Enspiral lives in high-trust, personal relationships.
Principles of collaboration, autonomy, transparency and diversity and the
processes, agreements and culture form the foundation of the network. A
cooperative in structure, Enspiral has quickly become one of the world's
pioneers in new ways to organise work.

They are interested in sharing experiences, challenges, experiments and
some of the innovative tools and practices that they’ve developed at
Enspiral. Find out more here

 *KEY THEMES *

 *Culture*

Culture is at the heart of the Enspiral network. We'll examine the cultural
and technical processes and practices we use to build the network and
strengthen the ventures and humans within it. Some of these include
participation, agile processes, personal and professional development,
checkins, external facilitators, communication retreats, away days,
feedback, retrospectives, kindness)

*Experimental and Open Source*

Experiments fuel ongoing understanding and are key to ensuring that
whatever we're doing -governance, customer or project-related - is
validated (or not). Taking an experimental and considered approach unlocks
new learning and possibilities for projects and our ongoing evolution. You
don't know what works until you try and no one else will know unless you
share it!

 *Governance and Finance*

Agreements define the important processes at Enspiral. The process for
creating and changing Agreements is defined by the way in which we make
Decisions which in turn is defined by the way in which we establish trust
and accountability for individuals and ventures within the network. During
this session, we'll discuss some of our experiments in collective strategy
setting, 'catalysts' and 'independent pods'.
