About us
Are you a people person and a bit of a people geek? Are you interested in creating high-performing organizations that are also great places to work? Do you like understanding human development? Do you like talking and learning about human-focused organizations, organisational psychology, leadership and management development and practical ways to improve our organizations and our own lives? If so, this is a group for you!
As an open and inclusive group, we welcome everyone who is striving to improve workplaces including:
- Founders, leaders and managers working in organisations,
- Professionals and practitioners working in leadership, management and organisational development, learning and development, change and all such fields,
- Academics and students interested in these and related topics.
We meet on a semi-regular basis to explore interesting topics, challenge and develop our thoughts and knowledge, gain new insights, share our enthusiasm and passion, help each other with real world challenges and to build a friendly and supportive community of like-minded people in and around Edinburgh.

Relational Presence: An Introduction to Embodied Practice
CodeBase Ltd, 37a Castle Terrace, Edinburgh, GBWHEN & WHERE
- 18:15 | Wednesday | 16 September
- Codebase | 37 Castle Terrace | Edinburgh | EH1 2EL
ABOUT THE SESSION
If you work with people, you probably have clients, colleagues, or contexts where nothing seems to work. More often than not, it has nothing to do with the tools that you use.
Might it be the quality of your very own presence?
That ability to bring all of yourself into the room rather than leaving parts of yourself at the door.
And as part of that presence, your relationship with the folk you are working with so that you can support them better.If you are curious, come along to the session and learn how to access your own body’s wisdom in a way that informs your work with groups and clients. This can not only have a positive impact on them, but it can also help you share more of your own authentic self.
We hope you will join us to discover a whole new way of showing up for others!
"As complex human beings living in a complex world, we need the precision of both kinds of knowing. The body knows, but it does so in a different way than the mind knows." — Eugene Gendlin, philosopher and originator of Focusing
