The last weekend

Oh, well. It is the last psy­cho­drama week­end of the year. The topic is soci­ometry. That should be fun. So, I’ll not be doing any mark­ing until Monday.

Sociodrama and sociometry

This is a copy of an old art­icle on socio­drama… *Mescon, Michael H. (1959). Socio­drama and soci­ometry: Tools for a mod­ern approach to lead­er­ship. Academy of Man­age­ment Journal, 2(1), 21–29.* p>. Socio­drama and soci­ometry: Tools for a mod­ern approach to lead­er­ship Michael H. Mescon Rich’s, Incor­por­ated, Atlanta, Geor­gia Abstract: Pro­fessor Mescon’s basic object in this

The canon of creativity

I’ve another psy­cho­drama work­shop tomor­row. They seem to be com­ing thick and fast at the moment. Tomor­row we are focus­ing on the _Canon of creativity_. Just to warm myself up to the work, I thought I’d spend a few moments read­ing and think­ing about it. This is very briefly talked about in *Moreno, J. L.

Clinical Psychodrama

I spent the week­end (Fri­day, Sat­urday, and Sunday) on a Clin­ical Psy­cho­drama course. Noth­ing much (clin­ical) happened.

What is agency?

I’ve was read­ing Wilson, D. C., & Jar­z­ab­kowski, P. (2004). Think­ing and act­ing stra­tegic­ally: New chal­lenges for inter­rog­at­ing strategy. _European Man­age­ment Journal_, 1, 14–20. It talks about many things, of which I Will say more later, but I was intrigued by the ref­er­ences to an art­icle by Emirbayer Mis­che. So, I got a copy —

Confusion reigns

I end up at a psy­cho­drama class to night. I say _ended_ because I only popped in to drop off some books to the lib­rary at “ATCP”:http://​www​.psy​cho​drama​.org​.nz/​a​t​c​p​.​h​tml. I’d had some con­fus­ing calls dur­ing the day about classes being on, so I went in just in case I was still con­fused (about the class being on

Sociodrama

Judith McMor­land and I have decided to run a short sem­inar or work­shop for Post-grad stu­dents, Doc­toral can­did­ates, and staff. The title of the sem­inar is Explor­ing the year ahead: cre­at­ing responses to chal­lenges and change and the flyer prom­ises: An exper­i­en­tial par­ti­cip­at­ory work­shop for PhD and Mas­ters stu­dents jour­ney­ing into ?unknown ter­rit­ory? of post­gradu­ate

Duh!

It’s Moreno, not Mon­roe. I just got one of his books out of the lib­rary. It’s: Moreno, J. L. (1978). Who shall sur­vive?: Found­a­tions of soci­ometry, group psy­cho­ther­apy, and socio­drama (3d ed.). Beacon, NY: Beacon House.   Quite a weighty tome; it’s about 750 pages long, so it will take some time to read. I’ll try

Psychodrama

Well I’ve signed up for an intro­duct­ory course (well they call it the Core cur­riculum) in psy­cho­drama. It will be inter­est­ing to see what hap­pens. I know rel­at­ively little about psy­cho­drama, other than what I’ve read and the fact that Judith McMor­land has demon­strated it a couple of times. Any way the first class is to
