Dear OB Researchers,
We would like to invite you to an experiential conference/workshop entitled: Authority and Recognition at Social and Economic Crossroads. The conference will be held in Ramot, over looking the Sea of Galilee in Israel from the 14-19 of February, 2010. The overall aim of this residential conference is to enable participants to understand organizational processes, both overt and covert and to explore the modes of operation and the multiplicity of meanings of leadership, authority and recognition within an organizational setting. The insights and experiences gained in the conference can be usefully applied to the realm of research of complex social processes at the individual, group, organizational and social system levels. They can also be applied to the realm of teaching and practice work.
This is OFEK's 23rd annual International Group Relations Conference. It is an experiential, working conference that is modeled on the Tavistock Group Relations Conferences, initiated by The Tavistock Institute, London, in 1957. These conferences have since been developed and conducted all over the world.
For further information please see the attached file. If you have any questions regarding the conference feel free to contact me.
Best regards,
Ronit Kark, Ph.D.
