We are simply trying to hold space for
people interested in group relations work.
We serve as a home for people who have experienced the power of group relations work, particularly in combination with spirituality and social justice. We want to nurture the GR network by offering a place to co-create as individuals and/or organizations. We are open to collaboration around group relations conferences and application events, writing, reflecting and meeting. We offer to stay connected with “the work” in various ways. We pay attention to where the energy takes us.
The programs we offer at this moment are listed in the activities section. As we are growing in numbers, we are beginning to create local (and virtual) communities that people may join to nurture “the work.”

GRCs & TRAINING
Group relations conferences are experiential learning events in which participants learn from their experience while they study their own (individual and collective) behavior in the moment in small and large study group settings.
There are also a number of reflective events offered to help the participant make sense of their experience and to apply their learning to their organization back home.
Although specific learning is not prescribed, typically participants have learnings related to the following concepts: boundaries, authority, role, task, leadership, followership, group dynamics, representation, the unconscious, levels of analysis, voice and agency, patterns of behavior, etc.

We offer group relations training and applied events on a regular basis.
Small and / or Large Study Group Training
An event in which participants are invited to take up the Small or Large Study Group consultant role and get feedback in public immediately after they have taken up that role.
This training is great practice for people who want to apply group-as-a-whole perspective in their work.
