When it comes to grievances, is your local stuck pushing paper more often than winning “instant justice”? Are grievances bottlenecked in the hands of a veteran steward or solo staffer? Hear from activists who are changing their unions’ grievance culture with direct action, group grievances, and mini-campaigns, and drawing more members into solving everyday problems on the job. We’ll also review the challenges, and how to avoid slipping back into well-worn grooves.
Everybody has complaints and frustrations, but an organizer has the power to turn problems into opportunities. Learn how to sort through the issues you hear from co-workers, bring people together, and make a plan to solve them. Based on the popular book Secrets of a Successful Organizer.
