The Topic
In this session, Steven D'Souza will address the concept of the Shadow — the hidden and often unconscious aspects of the self — through psychological, biological, socio-cultural, and spiritual lenses. He will explore how the Shadow manifests in the workplace through projection, defences, derailers, and embodiment, as well as the concept of the Unlived or Shadow Life.
This session will offer participants a deeper exploration of the Shadow, not only from an individual perspective but also in how it operates systemically within teams, organisations, and cultures.
The Agenda
In the first half of the webinar, Steven will make his presentation and facilitate initial responses.
In the second half, we'll move into a reflection-application session:
- 'Composting': experienced peers work the material in small groups to sprout new ideas;
- 'Weaving': attendees gather to collectively reflect and question, weaving our experiences together;
- Discuss how we will apply learnings to our personal practice in Reflection Application Pairs (RAPs).
