Working with Command and Control

The idea of ‘command and control’ is one that many have and still do experience. Despite that, it is not always clear what it means because there are levels to it. There is a clear way-over-the-line type of control, but often the line is less clear. In this session, we will dig into the term and what it can mean by looking at what types of statements and behaviors people make when people believe they are ‘using command and control.’ We will explore reasons people may use it and also if it is working or not. Finally, we will dig into what people have tried to change from command and control and what they might try. This will not be a session that is focusing on complaints about command and control, rather, we will be looking at it from both sides and trying to learn how we may approach things differently.
