At work and in private life we sometimes have to deal with challenging personalities that are not easy to handle, especially when they or we are under stress. And sometimes we, ourselves, may also become challenging for others when we are under stress and then behave destructively.

Transactional Analysis (TA) is a psychological framework with the PAC model being its most central concept which provides a simple but powerful method to identify and analyze the complex way on how people interact with each other. TA's basic assumption is that we communicate from three different so called ego states (Parent, Adult and Child). Understanding and consciously choosing to apply them can be extremely helpful to interact more impactfully at work and in private life.

In general, TA contributes to a higher self-awareness and more effective communication and collaboration. 

Come and join us for this engaging and interactive workshop. Learn a simple but powerful model that will forever change the way you look at communication between people:

1.   Learn to differentiate the different Ego States in action

2.   Analyze for yourself your strongest and weakest Ego States

3.   Understand how to quickly analyze others and how this can help you in challenging situations

4.   Experience and strengthen your weaker Ego States for a more balanced "Ego State portfolio" that enables you to react more appropriately than you would intuitively do.
