Consulting Excellence:

Using GISC’s signature combination of support and challenge, participants will examine aspects of themselves that may lead to difficulty in case work. A unique structured exploration will be used to explore how some aspects of their core competencies can be obstacles to success when overused. The result will be a clearer sense of the connection between who they are and what they do, a sense of the mechanics
underpinning their consulting style, and new tools and practical experiences for increasing their developmental edge.

The course work will blend the supervision method used by clinicians with case consultation methods used in consultant development. The format will include a range of experiences including casework, self-analysis, and group discussion. Participants will have opportunities to expand their ability in shadow consulting to each other.

August, 2010 program will take place in Stockholm, Sweden

There will be no 2010 program at GISC on Cape Cod.

“New knowledge is great, yet it’s of limited value without the felt experience of that knowledge. Only personal experience
changes us. Most workshops, including some that I lead, don’t incorporate time for the experiential. Those at GISC do, and
it made a big difference for me. Séan Gaffney was a master at drawing out that which was inside me, thereby allowing me to see a new ‘me’ for myself. Powerful.”
