Richard D. Bartlett co-founded the digital tool Loomio and a decentralization consulting company, The Hum. He writes about how we work together, at any scale, from relationships to organizations to social change.
He publishes on Medium.com, was a contributing author for Better Work Together, curates a comprehensive list of resources for decentralized organizations, and his first unfinished book (Patterns for Decentralised Organising) covers solutions to common failure points of groups – current draft available here. His most recent project, Microsolidarity is a plan for weaving purposeful networks where people support each other with deep mutual aid.
