I would apply social exchange theory to advance my advocacy agenda. In social exchange theory, there is an exchange of thoughts and opinions, and a collective analysis is done to decide the best decision. In Cherry’s article (2022) interviewing Dr. Han, Dr. Han discusses successful social movements; she discusses that with all successful campaigns, both sides had to bend some to reach a comprise. Social exchange theory does just that; everyone can contribute thoughts and ideas, which are deliberate until finding the best possible solution. In my advocacy agenda, I know that I will have to compromise to be successful; social exchange theory guides me in reaching a compromise by allowing everyone to contribute ideas until a suitable solution is found.
