What is Group Works?

  1. A new way of thinking about group dynamics and how to work with them effectively.  A common vocabulary for facilitators and participants to use in exploring how to create and support fulfilling group sessions.
  2. A deck of 91 beautiful cards, available for $25 in print or download for free from www.groupworksdeck.org (also available for iPad and soon an iPhone app).  Each card describes one pattern that shows up in meetings that have a sense of life in them.
  3. A nonprofit (technically called the Group Pattern Language Project) that collectively created and stewards this ongoing exploration, and that you can get connected with in a variety of ways.

    This sounds useful. I'd be interested in attending another time in the future, but I'm busy all weekend with a workshop Fri-Sun.
