In this chapter, Elizabeth Wardle discusses a framework that has enabled her to navigate as a non-positional leader, developing collaborations and connecting people across existing groups. Wardle’s framework is informed by several key ideas discussed in the chapter: brokering among communities of practice; creating opportunities for sensemaking to create deep change; and extending invitations through lenses shaped by feminist rhetorical theory.
