"I would recommend this Certification process to anyone who finds Group Relations a compelling and useful framework. In my experience, this training and mentorship has provided invaluable insights into groups and how to effectively consult to the dynamics both within a conference setting as well as in the workplace. In short, I would do it again without hesitation - it was a very positive program." - more -
