This intensive course is primarily aimed\u00a0 at those working with groups and teams in areas such as: social work; teaching; probation; nursing; educational psychology; organisational consultancy; coaching; psychotherapy and counselling.<\/p>\n
It will also be relevant to those in the independent sector wanting to better understand group dynamics of teams and organisations and review their leadership approach. It is anticipated that the range of professional backgrounds will provide a rich and stimulating source of learning and exchange.<\/p>\n
The course will provide substantial opportunities to review and develop individual groupwork skills; develop understanding of theory and application to particular settings and experiential awareness of groups\u2019 processes.<\/p>\n
1. The seminar programme\u00a0<\/strong>offers a grounding in theory, primarily gestalt field theory and psychodynamic thinking.\u00a0 Topics covered will include:<\/p>\n 2. Skills practice sessions with review <\/strong>will provide a forum for focused exploration \/ discussion of different elements of facilitation whilst bringing the opportunity for skills practice and review.<\/p>\n 3. The experiential study group\u00a0<\/strong>provides a setting for participants to use the here and now experience to study group functioning and individual behaviour in the group.<\/p>\n Currently I run this programme in a modular format with a three day workshop followed by three two day workshops. This can be adjusted for individual organisations.<\/p>\n\n
