He has deep training and understanding of human nature and experience in both individual development and organizational dynamics. His perspective on our effectiveness in life can be captured by four clear principles:
- Individual and organizational vibrancy come from a clear sense of identity and the ability to effectively project into the future.
- Most individual and group problems cannot be effectively “treated” by focusing on symptoms alone. Human dysfunction cannot be addressed without illuminating and intervening in underlying and sustaining dynamics.
- Human productivity and growth are achieved through a commitment to aligning our values with the choices we make.
- Couples, families, and organizations are “systems” whose patterns reflect the personalities of those who lead and those who are subordinate (children, employees). In business, especially entrepreneurial ventures and partnership, the players often recreate their original family dynamics and conflicts.
