ABOUT THE CONFERENCE

The principles and methods of this conference originated at the Center for Applied Social Research, Tavistock Institute of Human Relations, London, England under the leadership of the late A.K. Rice. Effective leadership and the meaningful exercise of authority require more than intellectual and technical understanding. The Group Relations model in the Tavistock tradition provides a well defined context within which to examine group-level forces and dynamics as they occur in the modern day. As people work in groups, families and other social systems, their participation takes on many different meanings – influencing thoughts, feelings and action. The confluence of individual meanings powerfully affects the identities, roles and authority we take on in groups, schools, organizations, institutions, communities and society.

Members of a group relations conference have the opportunity to directly experience:

    How people join and engage in group work, delegate and resist authority, and develop roles and reputations.
    How people contribute to and obstruct getting the group’s work accomplished.
    How members of a group exercise authority, power and influence both as leaders and as followers.
    Group collusion in the creation and enabling of adaptive and maladaptive roles.

This conference is designed for individuals who wish to study the exercise of authority at the group and organizational levels. While members often learn about their own reactions to exercising and encountering authority, the conference staff will not focus on individual personalities，ut organized as a sequence of group and inter-group interactions. The conference is designed to provide an integrated experience. Learning occurs not only during individual conference events but also from their sequence and relationship to one another; therefore, membership entails a commitment to attend all events.
