The Mystery and the Magic of the Group: What Happens Here that Happens No Where Else?

Connie Concannon, M.S.W., CGP, FAGPA

Whether joining together at the Annual Conference, facilitating groups in our work settings, or most simply sitting around the kitchen table it’s clear that a “collective wisdom” emerges that is often transformative.

This presentation will address how our “collective wisdom” has shaped our history, enabled our sustainability and will guide us in resourcefully responding to the future challenges affecting our organization and our world.
