How art psychology and the unconscious can come to the rescue of organisations

With a mix of theory plus examples we will build unexpected bridges connecting Art Psychology with Systems Psychodynamics and Organizational Development work.
Group work can benefit from artistic and creative processes by fostering deep insights and transformative mindsets.
While often most attention is given to the creator’s role and experience, those of the spectator are equally crucial in enabling reflection and change.
We will explain why and how both roles can contribute to transformative dynamics within organizations: they allow very rationally functioning people to reactivate their suppressed emotional intelligence. The group dynamics then help them to overcome their resistance to change by processing unconscious anxieties and instilling desire to transform.
