Unlocking Group Dynamics - Training Video

How do you feel when you're invited to be part of a group? Our experiences of groups can shape how safe, confident and comfortable we feel when we find ourselves in one again.

This approximately 2-hour instant-access online training explores the dynamics of groups and the lasting impact that difficult group experiences can have.

From families, school and college to workplaces, faith communities and special interest groups, painful experiences can leave a legacy of anxiety, uncertainty or a desire to avoid groups altogether. Even when we hope things will be different next time, past experiences can influence how we interpret and respond to what is happening around us.

Pauline Andrew explores these dynamics and considers how we can find our own feet in groups - and help clients find theirs.
