Taking One's Own Medicine
Abstract
I have spent a number of years, seeking to develop my competence as a trainer in group dynamics and interpersonal skill training. When working with groups or teams, it has occurred to me that the consultant/trainer role, in spite of all its stresses and difficulties, did enable me to distance myself from certain types of experience and often restricted me from working on my own growth problems. For all my apparent awareness of the dynamics of groups, it was relevant to ask whether I was growing insensitive to the dilemmas facing course members, new to this type of training. I therefore determined to attend again as a member on group dynamics programme and I shall try to capture here some of the insights of the problems this atendance provided.
