Authority, Leadership & Organisation | LIFE | Learning In Fragmented Environments

For many decades, the TIHR has been offering this two-week unique opportunity to explore eternally relevant questions about Life at Work. We ask:

What kinds of authority and leadership are needed in contemporary organisations? 

How do you exercise authority and leadership when organisational structures and relationships are subject to continuous change? 

About the Conference

• The conference helps managers to manage themselves more effectively in their roles;
• The conference assists managers to understand and work with below-the-surface dynamics in groups and organisations;
• The conference is designed for learning from - and through - experience.

The conference helps develop vital management skills in thinking in moments when it seems impossible to think

Participants study how they relate to each other in groups with different tasks. We learn about the relationships and processes between groups and between groups and management.

The conference lasts two weeks, is residential and has a multi-national staff and membership.

What happens at the Leicester Conference?

A temporary organisation is created, in which all members and staff co-create the culture and practices of the organisation as it unfolds. We hold a close scrutiny to everything that happens within the organisation and surface what meanings are embedded within the behaviours as they happen.

The Groups are formed, and events are consulted to by the staff. Designed to surface our assumptions and myths about organisational and social life. As the conference is fully residential, we have the experience of immersing totally into the life of the organisation, eating sleeping and working together consistently for 14 days. There is nothing quite like it.
