Navigating Social Systems

Each day we are knee-deep in social systems, whether we like them or not and whether we notice them or not. These systems have a life of their own. Each day systems are busy adapting like crazy to their environment and imposing changes of their own on it, or at least trying to. They are falling apart and reorganising, losing direction and finding their way, fighting within, defending their reputation, struggling for survival, their people are closing and opening their doors and hearts to each other and the outside world. The impacts of these systems can be reassuring, stabilising, disturbing and alienating and more! As we keep engaging with them, we may simply want to restore some semblance of calm and belonging or we may want to go further in taking initiatives to influence them for the better.
This workshop will highlight your experiences of the significant social systems with which you interact (as a professional, employee, colleague, volunteer, family member, community member, organisation member, consumer or citizen/voter). There will be opportunities to get to know your own experience, work out what you think and feel, get to know more about how systems behave and develop your capacity to intervene effectively.
This experiential learning workshop will involve sociometric, sociodramatic and role training enactments and will draw from the literature on social systems.
