TA concepts are used to develop people and organizations and in particular to:

• facilitate people to be fuly themselves
  
• change people’s perceptions and responses to stressful situations
  
• change family/organizational cultures,
  
• analyze disappointing outcomes and develop options for change

The focus of these 2 days is to teach people how to create personal and organizational success. We will learn concepts that bring these skills to life. Participants will examine the theory of TA, including structural analysis: transactional analysis - rules of communication, strokes, time structuring and discounting; script analysis; game analysis; racket analysis.

Being effective in our life and in our work depends on having skills that TA will develop in you:

• communication skills
• relationship skills with self and others;
  
• achieving results at work or in your personal life
  
• permission and power enough to do things well and fulfill our personal and organizational potential.
