The Topic

In this webinar, Caroline will explore how connection can be sustained in times of pressure, conflict and uncertainty. She will examine the relational field of organisations and how staying present to one another becomes a soulful act. Drawing on psychoanalytic and systems thinking, she will reflect on emotional labour and the unseen dynamics shaping workplace relationships. Participants will consider how connection can resist fragmentation and burnout. Work will be reimagined as a living web of relationships.

The Agenda

In the first half of the webinar, Caroline will make his presentation and facilitate initial responses.

In the second half, we'll move into a reflection-application session:

- 'Composting': experienced peers work the material in small groups to sprout new ideas;

- 'Weaving': attendees gather to collectively reflect and question, weaving our experiences together;

- Discuss how we will apply learnings to our personal practice and living in a plenary.
