 Small Study Group Series

Seven online sessions with

Professor Susan Long

 

Seven two-hour sessions 5 – 7 pm

Wednesday 30 September till 11 November 2020

NIODA is offering alumni and friends of NIODA a valuable opportunity to refresh your organisation dynamics understanding through participation in a small study group. The study group offers intensive exploration of small group dynamics through the traditional Tavistock style study group method. In this, the participant group explore their own conscious and unconscious patterns of small group behaviour in the ‘here and now’ using group/system-level analysis. This design encourages in-depth ‘learning through experience’ as well as laying a theoretical foundation for understanding interpersonal group dynamics.

Through this experience, it is anticipated participants will increase their capacity to identify, analyse and manage workgroup dynamics; to appreciate the emotional labour of work, and to enable constructive leader-follower relations.

The direct group experience is supplemented by critical discussion of selected theories and models of group dynamics.

Your learning will be supported with weekly readings.

Professor Susan Long will lead and manage the sessions, along with taking up the consultant role to the study group.
