Emergent strategy is how we internally change in ways that grow our capacity to embed the just and liberated world we long for.”Īs anti racist and anti oppressive therapists working with couples and families, brown offers us encouragement, hope, provocation, and salient questions. She defines this emergent strategy as “ways for humans to practice being in relationship to our home and each other, to practice complexity, and grow a compelling future together though relatively simple interaction. In Emergent Strategy, brown draws from the visionary writing of Octavia Butler, studies of the natural world, poetry, and ever expanding other sources to create a model that allows each of us as individuals to align with the constant changes in the world in a transformative, healing, and liberatory way. adrienne is the writer-in-residence at the Emergent Strategy Ideation Institute, author of both fiction and non fiction books, a podcast creator, a doula, activist, and Black feminist rooted in Detroit.

Rather than steel ourselves against such change, this book invites us to feel, map, assess, and learn from the swirling patterns around us in order to better understand and influence them as they happen. It is a stream of ever-mutating, emergent patterns. The world is in a continual state of flux. Inspired by Octavia Butler’s explorations of our human relationship to change, Emergent Strategy is radical self-help, society-help, and planet-help designed to shape the futures we want to live.
