SUMMARY:When Personal Power Feels Dangerous: Thought Leader Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Childhood trauma can disconnect us from our true nature. Growing up in challenging circumstances\, we develop survival strategies that separate us from our personal power—a disconnection that initially kept us safe but eventually becomes limiting. As adults\, though we no longer need these protective mechanisms\, we may still feel threatened by reclaiming our authentic power. \nRight Use of Power trainings are designed to help us become more Power-Conscious. Although the model that Sarah will be bringing to this Thought-Leader program is not part of the RUPI curriculum\, we expect it will support your becoming more Power-\nConscious and effective. \nThe NeuroAffective Relational Model (NARM) helped this month's guest reconnect with her personal power and overcome self-shame. NARM is a cutting-edge approach to healing attachment\, relational\, and developmental trauma by addressing the unconscious patterns that create lifelong psychobiological symptoms and relationship difficulties. These early patterns of disconnection profoundly impact our identity\, emotions\, physiology\, behavior\, and capacity for meaningful connection. Healing these patterns ultimately help us exercise our right use of power. \n  \nSarah Buino: \n \nSarah is trained as a Right Use of Power Facilitator and also serves as Chair of RUPI’s Mission Circle (Board of Directors). We are delighted to introduce her as our presenter this month. \nSarah Buino\, LCSW\, RDDP\, CADC\, NMT\, is a multi-talented therapist\, speaker\, educator\, consultant\, and visionary founder of the therapy practice Head/Heart Therapy\, Inc\, and business consulting organization Head/Heart Business Therapy. As an esteemed member of Loyola University Chicago’s adjunct faculty and dynamic podcast host\, Conversations With a Wounded Healer\, she passionately advocates for personal growth and collective action.

SUMMARY:Basics Training in Finland - May 15th\, 2025
DESCRIPTION:Right Use of Power Basics -työpaja \nKolmatta kertaa Suomessa ja suomeksi \n Tule mukaan ja tutustu Right Use of Power ™  -ajattelun perusteisiin \nRight Use of Power™ on dynaaminen\, inspiroiva ja valtasuhteita tarkasteleva lähestymistapa. RUP-ajattelulla pyritään tukemaan hyvinvointia ja toimivia ihmissuhteita sekä vahvistamaan tietoisempaa suhdetta valtaan ja eettiseen vaikuttamiseen. Tutkimme yhdessä sitä\, miten voimme navigoida kaiken valtaan liittyvän dynamiikan keskellä ja käyttää sekä vaikutusvaltaamme että sydäntämme. \nRight Use of Power -koulutukset ovat syväsukelluksia käytännön etiikkaan. Pyrimme lisäämään niin tietoisuutta kuin myös taitoja ja tunnistamaan sen\, miten monitahoinen asia valta ja valtasuhteet ovat. \nRight Use of Power -lähestymistavassa eettisyyttä tarkastellaan sisäisenä kompassina – ei ulkoa sisään päin tulevana koodistona. \nBasics -ohjelma on yksipäiväinen työpaja\, jossa on mukana sekä teoriaa että keskusteluja ja harjoituksia. Opit tunnistamaan viisi vallan lajia sekä syvennät tietoisuuttasi omasta henkilökohtaisesta vallastasi sekä siitä\, miten vaikutat toisiin. \nCoachit Huom! ICF:n CCEU pisteitä tästä koulutuksesta saa neljä (Core Competencies / Ethics). Muistathan merkitä toiveen todistuksesta jo rekisteröityessäsi. \nBasics-koulutukseen osallistuminen mahdollistaa jatkon muihin Right Use of Power Instituutin koulutuksiin (Core Training\, Certified Facilitator Training\, Power and Equity Challenge). \nSuomessa toteutettavalla koulutuksella kerätään varoja Right Use of Power Instituutin toimintaan. Toivomme osallistujien valitsevan korkeimman hintatason: USD 225. Sinä voit kuitenkin vapaasti tehdä myös muun valinnan oman maksukykysi mukaan\, ja halutessasi toki tehdä myös lisälahjoituksen. \nAika: Torstai 15.05.2025 klo 9-16 \nPaikka: Yliopistonkatu 5\, Helsinki \nKouluttajana: \nSari Ajanko\, Leadership Coach (PCC) \nJohdon työnohjaaja (CSLE) \nAffiliate Right Use of Power Teacher \nRight Use of Power Instituutin hallituksen jäsen \n________________________________________________________________________ \nRight Use of Power™ is a dynamic\, inspiring\, and relational approach to the ethical use of power to promote well-being\, the common good and right relationship.

SUMMARY:Power Consciousness: Using Down-role Power Wisely and Well: Thought Leader Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Up-role power isn’t all power and down-role power isn’t no power\, even though it sometimes may seem that way.  As we change roles from teacher to student\, therapist to client\, doctor to patient and so on\, the power dynamic also changes. Join us for a discussion with our panel about down-role power experiences.  Our panel members are Dave Medema\, Kelly Sheeran\, and Janet Zahn. We’ll be talking about power differential relationship changes and challenges\, and also how to navigate and use down-role power influence wisely and well.  This is another opportunity to increase your power consciousness. \nFacilitated by: Fenna Diephius RUP Teacher

SUMMARY:Using Power Wisely and Well: Thought Leader Webinar
DESCRIPTION:In a time when we seem to be hearing more about misuses and abuses of power than about power used for the common good\, we want to shine a light on people who are using their power wisely and well. In a time when\, wanting to avoid causing harm\, people unconsciously misuse power by disowning it\, we want to illuminate the good that power can bring. In a time when the shadow of power overwhelms and distresses\, we want to get more and more clear about the perils and pitfalls of power.  This will allow us to become increasingly self-aware and avoid the tendencies to self-centeredness\, greed\, need for control and adulation\, and loss of empathy that so often accompany increasing access to power. \n  \nIn this hour together\, we will have a chance to listen and to talk with people in high role-power positions who are using their power well and shaping it for good.  Let’s see what they have to say about being tempted and tested\, how they have responded\, and what they’ve learned about power.   In contrast to when power is abused\, when power is used humbly and well\, we hardly notice\,  Things are smooth\, conflicts get handled\, mistakes learned from\, and multiple people get acknowledged. \n  \nIn further announcements about this Thought-Leader program\, we will be letting you know who our guests will be.

SUMMARY:The Wheel of Consent and Personal Power: Thought Leader Webinar
DESCRIPTION:The Wheel of Consent and Right Use of Power have been called “a match made in heaven”.  What do these practices have to do with each other and where do they overlap? How can each of them shed light on the other?\n\nThe Wheel of Consent is designed to help you develop personal awareness and skills around receiving and giving touch\, and a lot else in relationship.  This involves noticing what you want and what you are okay with\, noticing the difference between those two\, and communicating that. It’s a practice that deepens both self-responsibility and generosity. And because it’s a somatic practice\, the learning lands deeply in your body and psyche.\n\nBetty is very much looking forward to diving in with us about how the Wheel of Consent and the Right Use of Power intersect.\n\n  \n\nBetty Martin\n \nDr. Betty Martin has had her hands on people professionally for over 40 years. First as a Chiropractor\, then after retiring from that practice\, as a sex coach and certified surrogate partner. Those experiences taught her that when it comes to touch (and a lot else)\, who is doing the touching is a different question than who it’s for. When you are touching someone\, are you doing what they want or what you want? And why does it matter? She developed the Wheel of Consent\, wrote a book about it\, and travels the world teaching it to other professionals. \nbettymartin.org \nwheelofconsentbook.com

SUMMARY:RUPI Collective Transmutation Circle
DESCRIPTION:Dear Right Use of Power Community\, \n  \nIn times of significant transition and change\, such as in the wake of this recent U.S. Presidential election\, we are reminded of the profound importance of conscious and ethical engagement with power. As members of the Right Use of Power community\, we have a unique opportunity to embody our values and support one another in navigating these complex times. \nOur mission—to promote a dynamic\, inspiring\, and relational approach to the ethical use of power—feels particularly relevant now. The post-election period often brings a range of emotions and experiences across our diverse community.
