Overview<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Process Work (officially known as Process-Oriented Psychology) is a comprehensive psychological approach founded in the 1970s by Jungian analyst Dr. Arnold Mindell. It is not merely a theory, but also a practical life skill for interpersonal relationships, addressing the question of “how to maintain oneself and interact with others in a society with diverse values.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Main Content<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Part 1: The Fundamentals and Foundation of Meta-Skills<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Theme: “Maintaining Oneself in the Conflict”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You will learn “meta-skills” (attitudes towards engagement) to understand the physical reactions and tendencies that occur when conflict arises, and to avoid being overwhelmed by emotions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Part 2: Understanding the Framework of Perspectives and the Structure of Relationships<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Theme: “Understanding the Structure of Conflict”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

From a process work perspective, you will develop the ability to understand and interpret the underlying structures of conflict. You will learn models for “interpreting relationships” in situations where diverse values \u200b\u200bclash, such as in multinational teams.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Part 3: The Practice of Third-Party Facilitation<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Theme: “Transforming Conflict into Dialogue”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This session will provide practical facilitation skills on how to intervene in conflicts as a third party. Participants will experience dialogue techniques that treat conflict not as something to be eliminated, but as a necessary process in the situation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

*As this is a new course, the content of the lessons may be subject to change.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
