This program includes an on-demand recorded webcast, available for access any time.
Where are we in creating and holding space for client groups to develop and thrive?
We have all asked ourselves this question before, during and after an engagement. Join in a conversation with Charlie and Edie Seashore about how consultants, coaches, and change agents can and must develop awareness of ‘use of self” in their work.
Strategy + Business magazine called Edie and Charlie Seashore “Masters of the Breakthrough Moment.” For more than 50 years, Edie and Charlie Seashore have been helping people learn from difficult conversations. “Productivity and creativity in the workplace, in their view, occur when members of a group or team wade together into the muck of confusion and unspoken assumptions in order to surface concerns and conflicts that get glossed over in the rush of daily life.” (Strategy + Business, November, 2006). Edie suggests that “Organizations can’t change unless people change, and the most efficient and powerful way to help people change is in small groups. You can affect the whole system if you work with the group.”
Edith Whitfield Seashore, M.A., has more than forty years of experience in successfully training and consulting with governments and corporations in organizational development and behavior.

Charles Seashore, Ph.D., has 37 years of experience as a consultant and trainer in: corporations, health care, higher education and government. He is currently on the faculty of the Doctoral Program in Human and Organizational Development of the Fielding Institute and teaches with Edith in the Johns Hopkins Fellows Program in Change Management and the American University/NTL Institute Master’s program in Organizational Development.

If you attended Conference 2008 or 2009, you know about the Kurt Lewin Master Class Series--an unparalleled opportunity to listen to and learn with a roster of well-known, deeply experienced master OD practitioners and thought leaders. Each of these seasoned practitioners outlined his or her approach to integrating theory into their work with clients, but every session also had a unique focus and flavor that reflected the personal perspective of each presenter.
Now, the OD Network invites you to join in a similar conversation online with an equally-distinguished roster of OD thinkers and practitioners. Our webinar series will include seven exciting opportunities to meet, listen to, and talk with people whose work you know and respect, and who will continue to bring more luster and credibility to our field on the global stage. These senior practitioners will be talking about topics that have ignited their passion and engaged their attention. Each conversation will be resonant and compelling. You won't want to miss them.
When you register, you will have access to an on-demand recorded version of this program. Not only will you receive the same presentation as our "live" attendees, you will also be able to access this recording as often as you want!
