This series of seminars is for leaders--pastors and leaders in religious organizations, school principals, superintendents, business leaders--who want to enrich, deepen, and otherwise expand the ability to apply principles of thinking about self, family, and workplace. These one-day seminars are for persons who want to broaden their perspective in self, family, and workplace through the lens of Bowen theory, commonly called family systems theory or systems thinking. Experience has shown that systems thinking cannot be learned from reading about the theory but application of theory can be enhanced by working with a coach over an extended period.
