Dates: 14-15 October 2017
Venue: The Berlin Gestalt Centre
Fee: 280 €
Shame is not only the most intensely painful feeling and experience of being wrong, not enough and not belonging, but also the least talked about, as people affected are often unaware, confused with guilt or simply trying to hide. This is the case in the private sphere and even more so in public and organisational life.
In organisations, shame often underlies narcissistic leadership patterns and is a widely used “tool” to exert power, keep people small and at their place. It is related to perfectionism, (work-)addiction, procrastination and isolation – amongst others. It affects our wellbeing at the workplace and is a major inhibitor to honesty, creativity, learning, innovation and change.
In the workshop, we will examine typical shame processes, find out how individual shame is established and triggered and raise awareness on reactions and avoidance behaviours from a field perspective. We will look at how shame plays out in different groups and organisations, how it can be detected and what we can do to “de-shame the field”.
The workshop is intended for Consultants, Coaches and Psychotherapists who work with people in organisations or deal with shame in the workplace and want to develop new insights, knowledge and skills in recognising, attending to shame, vulnerability and guilt in an organisational context.
