The third in a series of 10 x monthly Organisational Transactional Analysis online workshops (6.00pm - 8.00pm London BST)

Organisational Transactional Analysis is a powerful tool for anyone working on improving communication, processes and relations within an organisation. This series of workshops is designed to facilitate professionals in consultancy, HR and People Management and counsellors in private practice working with clients within an organisational setting, in applying TA principles and concepts at a personal level, group level and within whole organisations to allow growth and change.

You will meet other interested individuals with whom you can discuss your professional thinking and we invite you to be open to share in discussions on Organisational Culture, Feedback Instruments, Values and Purpose or any other concepts you work with. This will be another learning opportunity for everyone in the workshop.

Pre-Course Requirement: Participants must have a basic knowledge of TA (at least having attended The Official Introduction to Transactional Analysis (TA101). For each workshop we have provided some suggestions for pre-reading material, ranging from Essential TA knowledge to ideas for expanding your knowledge further.

Cohesion at Work

Cohesion and Coherence are two concepts we can use to describe phenomena in teams. Cohesion describes the “we“ in an individual, the shared group imago which every member is carrying in themselves as a fractal of the group. Coherence describes the shared purpose of the team, which enables each member to work individually and be self-reliant towards the group goal.

Organisational Consultants are working in the field of Team Building, by supporting teams to form, grow and get unstuck. There is a rich offering in the market on diagnostic methods and tools to be able to work with clients to increase efficiency and effectiveness of teams. In this module we focus on sharpening our view and professional capability on the core aim of those interventions.
