Reflective Groups - April to October

facilitated by Jac Mathews

The Centre for Emotional Development will be running reflective learning groups for people interested in exploring issues related to their work practice and professional role. Participants will have an opportunity to focus on specific work based situations and gain input from the consultant and other group members. These groups will be particularly relevant to Managers / Directors of organisations, and people who have managerial responsibilities.

Each group will meet on a monthly basis for two and half hours and the aim of the group will be:

* To reflect on the complexities inherent in management and think of practical ways of dealing with such issues.

* Develop a deeper understanding of how conscious and unconscious processes affect individuals, teams and organisational functioning.

* Enhance a capacity for more creativity within the management role.

* Consider how managing with emotional intelligence can contribute to more positive working relationships and the effective fulfilment of the organisation’s aims and objectives.
