Description: Culture Shift by Kit Miller How do you work? In businesses and nonprofits, families and faith communities, how we work matters. Culture Shift: Nonviolence at Work reimagines these environments as places that are united with our values. Our work can feel like a nourishing part of our life. We can look forward to meetings. Working groups can become spaces we enjoy being, where learning is continuous and mistakes are welcomed, where each person knows they matter. The skills of nonviolence-changing perspectives, thinking systemically, and enacting patience and courage through feedback and conflict navigation-can change how we work together, and this book offers dozens of ideas and examples of how its done.

Review "Culture Shift: Nonviolence at Work is a book to sit with, savor, and most of all: put to work in your life. Kit Miller has distilled a lifetime of experience into a succinct and highly useful collection of field notes for all of us to explore. The ideas are transformative inside and out. The best way to repay this great gift is to use it!"Rivera Sun, author of The Dandelion Insurrection and the Ari Ara Series"Before reading this book, I would have thought it impossible to make the deep essence of nonviolence accessible and so relevant to this task. Kit Miller did just that. Every principle and insight in this book is illustrated with potent stories and anecdotes. Each section ends with reflection questions that support integration and self-trust. And the first few chapters make it deeply clear that there is no jumping over the inside job if we want to change how we function and especially lead in the workplace."Miki Kashtan, PhD, cofounder of Nonviolent Global Liberation Community, author of The Highest Common Denominator: Using Convergent Facilitation to Reach Breakthrough Collaborative Decisions"From corporate boardrooms to volunteer organizations, Culture Shift: Nonviolence at Work is essential reading for anyone seeking to create meaningful change and foster a more compassionate, equitable, and resilient workplace."Kobi Skolnick"We all need thoughtful invitations and reminders to the essence of the good work we each do every day. In Culture Shift, that is exactly what Kit Miller has done for us. Wielding her deep experience and blessing us with so many insights from a rich diversity of activists and thinkers, she offers a path to understanding and practicing nonviolence at our most common site of community: our workplace. As a leader who has struggled with the applicability of nonviolence when facing structural oppression and violence, I found a refreshing and serious approach to facing social justice and community building in principled ways. This is an essential contribution to all our work of improving healthy organizational culture."Malik Muhammed, EDD, founder of Akoben LLC, author of The Restorative Journey"We stand at a crossroads, having to choose between extinction and nonviolence-there is no other alternative.Kit Miller has masterfully written this book about the importance of nonviolence in every sphere of life and how an individual can utilize it in the personal as well as public domain.
