9.05am - Cormac White will moderate this session based on the controversial book, The Dictators Handbook

Summarized hand outs with brief explanations of each book chapter will be available and I look forward to joining in Q&A.

To help with the conversations I suggest the following prompts

Key Points:

What is power? is it by design, accidental or random?
Can anyone get power?
How does anyone get power?
How does anyone keep or lose power?
Power dynamics and fear
Can we live without power?
Macro and Micro power.

11am (optional) - Drink and bite to eat at nearby cafe after library meetup.

Venue is the meeting room adjacent to New Farm library and its free carpark.
