\r\n \tGroup Relations Conference <\/h2>\r\n
<\/div>\r\n <\/div>\r\n [\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row gap=”30″ leaf_row_scheme=”0″][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text]S<\/span>ince the late 1990s, Nodo Group has been organizing experiential conferences in Italy, at which participants are invited to reflect in the \u201chere and now\u201d on the conscious and unconscious roles and processes underlying leadership<\/strong>, authority<\/strong>, and organizations<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

In the context of the historic Italian equivalent \u2013 the ALI Conference<\/strong> \u2013 variations with respect to the English model implemented in the Leicester Conference<\/strong> include: increased exploration of the boundary between delegates and staff; and the introduction of new social dreaming<\/strong> activities.<\/p>\n

Two original conferences have also been developed. LFA<\/strong> offers mental health practitioners the opportunity to experientially immerse themselves in the role of participants-residents, with the goal of learning from the non-verbal actions and communications that characterize daily life in therapeutic residential centres.<\/p>\n

ECW<\/strong> is the youngest of the Italian Group Relations-style Conferences. It is focused on bodily and creative languages that can inform a more ecological approach to exploring organizational dynamics. This conference explores the concepts of interdependence and relatedness, which are core elements of the systemic organizational paradigm, including through outdoor activities in natural settings.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”4894″ img_size=”full”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” leaf_row_scheme=”0″ css=”.vc_custom_1613993723459{margin-bottom: 60px !important;}” el_id=”sigle-attivita”][vc_column width=”1\/3″] \t

\r\n \tBalint Centre <\/h2>\r\n
<\/div>\r\n <\/div>\r\n [\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row gap=”30″ leaf_row_scheme=”0″][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text]T<\/span>he Balint Study Centre<\/strong> was founded in Turin in 2012 to study the care role and support practitioners in caring\/helping professions (in the health care, social services, and education sectors) with two specific aims:<\/p>\n
    \n
  1. Building up a body of knowledge<\/strong> \u2013 by assembling reference materials, studies, research, data, and personal accounts \u2013 about the emotional demands of the \u201chelping professions\u201d<\/em>, both medical and non-medical, including through the opening of a specific \u201cobservatory\u201d on the website of the Order of Physicians of Turin;<\/li>\n
  2. Supporting care practitioners by developing and implementing prevention and protection methods<\/strong> (especially the Balint approach<\/strong><\/a><\/span>) against phenomena of organizational malaise<\/em>, burnout, and work-related stress, and especially caring for practitioners by shining a light on the impact of the non-individual factors \u2013 role and network relationships, group processes, and institutional\/social dynamics \u2013 involved in care\/helping.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Today, the centre comprises its founder Mario Perini and a small group of (family and hospital) doctors and psychologists who embrace an explicitly inter-professional approach; it is coordinated by Marco Araldi (a general medical doctor and trainer, who hosts the group at his practice) and Alessandro Siciliano (a clinical psychologist, psychotherapist, and supervisor of healthcare staff).<\/p>\n

    The shared emphases in inter-professional collaboration include: attending to the care relationship (care in the broader sense, not just therapy) that binds practitioners to their clients, patients, and users; a systemic focus on the group and network relations that connect practitioners with other actors and agencies, with public institutions, with the community, with families and associations, with regulation, laws and planning strategies \u2013 in practice with all stakeholders, especially the financial and political ones. Surviving this complex environment \u2013 without getting hurt, without burning out and becoming cynical and demotivated, while preserving one\u2019s capacity to think, integrity, competence, empathy and the possibility to take pleasure in one\u2019s work \u2013 is an ambitious objective that is nevertheless realistically achievable.<\/p>\n

    Over its years of operation, following an initial phase of establishing and sharing ideas and languages, the Centre has conducted a series of activities:[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”4922″ img_size=”full”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Organization and management of interprofessional Balint groups, with the participation of doctors, psychologists, educators, and teachers.<\/li>\n
    2. Public events presenting the Balint method (at the Order of Physicians, the Mauriziano Hospital in Turin, the FIMMG).<\/li>\n
    3. Participation in events organized by other actors [CSeRMeG seminars (Centre for Studies and Research in General Medicine); Balint Days in Parma; a National Conference].<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      In 2019, the seminar in Verona on fatigue in care was well-attended (see poster). At present, the Study Centre, in addition to organizing the meetings of the Balint Centre special interest group (link to the Balint Centre special interest group page) togliere per ora metteremo il link quando sar\u00e0 pronto, is working on two projects: a) an annual, fee-based interprofessional Balint Group for caring for members of the caring\/helping professions and supporting the caring dimension of their role, now on its 9th edition; b) CISPOS, an applied group project related to the current public health emergency.<\/p>\n

      A free psychological help line<\/strong><\/a> has been set up for health workers engaged<\/strong> in frontline care, prevention, and assistance related to the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as for emergency and public safety workers.<\/p>\n

      Ongoing: <\/strong>Enrollment re-opens every six months for a new round of Balint<\/a> meetings facilitated by Mario Perini and Alessandro Siciliano.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row leaf_row_scheme=”0″ css=”.vc_custom_1614005495818{margin-top: 10px !important;margin-bottom: 60px !important;}”][vc_column width=”1\/2″ css=”.vc_custom_1613995037225{margin-top: 0px !important;margin-right: 0px !important;margin-bottom: 0px !important;margin-left: 0px !important;padding-top: 0px !important;padding-right: 0px !important;padding-bottom: 0px !important;padding-left: 0px !important;background-color: #daa21b !important;background-position: 0 0 !important;background-repeat: repeat !important;}”][vc_custom_heading text=”Ongoing” font_container=”tag:h3|text_align:left|color:%23ffffff” use_theme_fonts=”yes” css=”.vc_custom_1613994680927{padding-top: 30px !important;padding-right: 20px !important;padding-bottom: 20px !important;padding-left: 20px !important;}”][vc_row_inner el_class=”box-pdf-2″][vc_column_inner width=”2\/3″][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1630571969191{margin-right: 0px !important;padding-right: 0px !important;padding-bottom: 20px !important;padding-left: 20px !important;}”]Inter-professional Balint Group for practitioners from across the caring\/helping
