Designing effective and socially equitable groups is crucial for lasting change in the world. This comprehensive program provides a practical approach to building harmonious groups that foster cooperation and collaboration. Based on contextual behavioral science, evolutionary science, and acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), Prosocial offers a step-by-step guide to designing groups that retain members, build strong relationships with other groups or business partners, and achieve success and longevity. By understanding the key characteristics that promote cooperation and collaboration, you can create groups that are more productive and equitable. This book provides a valuable resource for anyone involved in group work, whether in business, schools, social justice, or activism, offering a fresh perspective on how to build and sustain effective groups.
