The Leadership for Change conference organized a sequence of group and inter-group interactions about how institutions operate and to learn by experimentation and practice. This conference was experiential and purposely designed to promote dynamic interchange and shared learning among groups of diverse peers. This way of group relations learning required giving up what we think we know – allowing ourselves to experience uncertainty – in order to make space for new ideas, thoughts, and perspectives that influence the ways we think about leadership, relate to authority, manage boundaries, respond to criticism, and handle conflict.
