中文简介: | 奥巴马的竞选胜利不是因为一个有魅力的候选人,而是因为一个纪律严明、积极进取的组织的努力,这个组织的根源可以追溯到20世纪60年代的标志性运动。马歇尔•甘茨在民权工作上和塞萨尔•查韦斯的农场工人联合会上,都对他学习的原则和做法进行了描述。内德在最近的总统选举中发挥了组织和领导作用。对于甘孜来说,我们的时代代表着“40年沙漠漫步”的结束,“失望的政治”的结束。“我们已经到达了一个巨大的快速变化时刻——一个可能性和不确定性并存的时刻——这对政治领袖来说是相当大的挑战。”但是,甘孜在多年的进步运动之后,认为领导包括“在不确定的情况下承担责任,使他人实现目标”。领导者招募、激励和发展他人,围绕共同利益构建社区,并从社区内建立能力。不同于那些往往依赖严格的等级制度、系统和程序的企业,有效的志愿者组织必须参与并使许多人成为革新者,在面对不确定性时能够适应。甘茨说,这种“公民资本”正是奥巴马竞选团队培养和投资的东西。成千上万的人掌握了民主自治所必需的技能,并实践了“领导艺术”。一些独特的条件使这场运动如此成功,包括奥巴马的希望故事,它借鉴了具有说服力的个人叙述。此外,该运动还制定了一项战略,即培养基层赢得核心会议和密切初选的能力;利用互联网吸引一支规模小、重复投稿的军队;以及“持续学习”过去和现在都不起作用的能力。2007年夏天,甘茨在奥巴马阵营担任顾问,教授主要的国家组织者分享个人故事,围绕人类经验和情感,而不是围绕问题,创造引人注目的政治。他主持了关于从“希望之地”而非恐惧中激励的讲习班,以及如何从共同立场建立到共同的政治价值观和承诺。奥巴马的工作人员和志愿者学会了如何建立相互依赖的领导团队,使之独立于竞选总部;如何收集和利用选民信息,使之退出投票,并利用更多的志愿者。“培训和领导力发展的级联”导致了一个建立在自身基础上的大规模现场组织,志愿者不断加入并晋升,每个人都觉得“他们拥有一部分”。 |
课程简介: | The Obama campaign owes its victory not to a single charismatic candidate, but to the efforts of a disciplined and motivated organization whose roots go back to landmark movements of the 1960s. Marshall Ganz, who cut his teeth on civil rights work and with Cesar Chavez’s United Farm Workers, describes how the principles and practices he learned around organizing and leadership played out in the most recent presidential election. For Ganz, our time represents the end of “40 years of wandering in the desert,” the end of “the politics of disappointment.” We’ve arrived at an extraordinary moment of rapid change -- a time of both possibility and uncertainty -- with commensurate challenges to political leaders. But Ganz’s take, after years with progressive movements, is that leadership involves “taking responsibility to enable others to achieve purpose in the face of uncertainty.” Leaders recruit, motivate and develop others, constructing a community around common interests, and building capacity from within the community. And unlike businesses, which tend to rely on rigid hierarchies, and systems and procedures, effective volunteer-based organizations must engage and enable lots of people to become innovators, adaptive in the face of uncertainty. This kind of “civic capital” is precisely what the Obama campaign cultivated and invested in, says Ganz. Thousands of people acquired the skills and practiced “the arts of leadership necessary to self govern in democracy.” Some unique conditions made this campaign so successful, including Obama’s story of hope, which drew on a persuasive personal narrative. There was also the campaign’s strategy of developing grassroots capacity to win caucuses and close primaries; its use of the Internet to attract an army of small-scale, repeat contributors; and its capacity for “continual learning” about what was and was not working. In the summer of 2007, Ganz served as counselor in LA’s “Camp Obama,” teaching key state organizers to share personal narratives and create compelling politics around human experience and emotion, rather than around issues. He led workshops on motivating from “a place of hopefulness,” rather than of fear, and on how to build from common ground to shared political values and commitments. Obama staffers and volunteers learned how to create mutually reliant leadership teams that could act independent of the campaign HQ; and how to amass and utilize voter information both to get out the vote, and to tap additional volunteers. A “cascade of training and leadership development” led to a massive field organization that built upon itself, where volunteers continually joined and moved up the ranks, and everyone felt “they owned a piece of it.” |
