Group Process Weekend
with
Ian Argent
This is an experiential group for CPD running across Saturday and Sunday.
This group process ‘marathon’ offers an opportunity to re-visit some reflective questions:
How do I experience others in a group? How do I experience myself in a group?
What can I learn from the ‘mirror’ held up to me by others?
The format will be largely organic, allowing for the participation of all and flexibility of focus.
Group members will be invited simply to engage, thoughtfully and authentically, with the
flow. In amongst this, we may take time to consider how we make sense of things using an
integrative framework; deepening our understanding professionally as well as personally.

30th and 31st May 2026
Venue:
Matrix College, 6 Griffin Court, Wymondham NR198 0GU
Timing:
9.30 to 4.30pm
