Each participant has their own Role Consultant.  Over the Programme there are 20 scheduled personal Role Consultations.  In these two-hour sessions the work is to analyse the lived experience of their own working roles. These sessions will normally take place face-to-face, by telephone, or through a VOIP/webcam link.

The Passion Purpose Potency Event is a residential 8 day event sponsored by The Grubb Institute. Focussing on the Conference as a temporary institution, it provides an unparalleled opportunity to become aware of the unconscious and systemic processes which are always present in organisations, but often not attended to. It attracts an international membership and staff. Participants are encouraged to take part in this conference as early as possible in the Programme.

 

These two-day Seminars present in an iterative way the key concepts in the Transforming Experience Framework (see below) which underpins the Programme’s approach to analysing organisations.  Each Seminar consists of presentations, discussions, exercises and time for reflection on the experience of taking the role of participant in the Programme. 

There are five Seminars altogether, entitled:   

• Experience of Being a Connected Person
• Experience of Living and Working Together
• Experience in Organisations and Institutions
• Freedom to Make a Difference: the Significance of Working to Purpose
• Leading Organisational Transformation. 

Participants choose to take part in two Seminars in the first year, and three in the second year.  The order in which one takes part can be chosen in relation to one’s own work and other priorities.  Seminars are timed to coincide with Workshops but can be attended separately if that is more convenient.

Each two-day Workshop provides opportunities to practise using the skills of Organisational Analysis through a variety of exercises and methodologies designed to develop skills in analysing current working experiences, brought to the Workshop by participants. Participation is expected in two Workshops in the first year and three Workshops in the second year.  As with the Seminars one can choose the order in which one takes part. Workshops are timed to coincide with Seminars but can be attended separately if that is more convenient.

The purpose of the project, based in one’s own organisation, is to think through in depth the way one goes about making a difference in a working system, showing the use of Organisational Analysis skills, concepts, theories and methodologies in practice. It also provides opportunities to show how one mobilises the gifts, knowledge and experience of others one leads and for whose work one is responsible.  Projects typically last 6-12 months.
