About this event
Since event is broadcast widely, let's be clear: this is NOT a self-help or counselling session. If you're not interested in systems theory, your time would be better spent elsewhere!
Is there a pattern where you see a system is stuck? In the 1960s-1970s, anthropologist Gregory Bateson was working with cases of schizophrenia and alcoholism, leading to the development of systems theories on double-binds.
Our guide will be Gary Metcalf, former president of the International Society for Systems Research, and the International Society for the Systems Sciences.
