In this workshop, we take a philosophical approach to understanding workplace dynamics and relationships. We will talk about the role of hierarchical and/or egalitarian, competitive and/or collegial, dynamics in the workplace, and try to understand how these elements can be brought together and balanced in a way that best promotes a healthy growth context for all members. We will engage with the lived experiences of workshop participants to further our practical and intuitive understanding of these issues.

Some of the questions we will be addressing are:

-what are the features that uniquely characterize workplace power dynamics?

-how can we distinguish wholesome workplace dynamics from unwholesome ones?

-what are the special responsibilities one has towards a boss, toward an employee, and toward a colleague?

-what is the most constructive way to bring up a difficult issue with someone in the workplace?
