Are groups good or bad? Tell me more. In my practice as a professor, researcher and consultant from therapy room to boardroom: It depends! Yet, the way to not only survive but thrive is only with groups. So, circle up! With considering these: Can we play together? Can we group up together? Can we support each other? That’s the dream. That’s the ultimate aim. The full video link of my TEDx talk is in the comments. After watching it, please consider with whom, how, when and where you can circle up!
