Our desire for control is powerful and understandable. But for others, like Matthew Bellringer, uncertainty is an opportunity.Matthew’s work in centering and celebrating neurodiversity, problem-solving at scale, and finding new approaches to old challenges is a testament to what can happen when we embrace uncertainty.It’s likely he will have persauded plenty of listeners to feel the same way by the end of this episode.Find out about:How to determine what is a risk and what is simply uncertainWhy absolutes - “a safe space” or “a balanced discussion” - are not possible in an inherently uncertain spaceWhy uncertainty is a liberation, not a restrictionWhy many clients struggle to determine between control and influenceHow to facilitate for and with neurodivergent participantsWhat it means to accept that our workshops can cause harmDon’t miss the next episode: subscribe to the show with your favourite podcast player.LinksConnect to Matthew:On LinkedInOn TwitterShare your thoughts about our conversation!Support the show✨✨✨Subscribe to our newsletter to receive a free 1-page summary of each upcoming episode directly to your inbox, or explore our eBooks featuring 50-episode compilations for even more facilitation insights.
