Listen "The Meeting as a Mirror - A conversation with Dr Jean Cooper"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode I chat to Dr Jean Cooper, a psychologist, adventurer, and long-time student of the unseen forces that influence people, teams, and organisations.
Jean’s work is rooted in the pioneering legacy of the Tavistock Institute, where he learned to turn the magnifying glass inward, using himself as an instrument to detect, contain, and work with the often-unbearable dynamics playing out below the surface. He believes that only by acknowledging our own blind spots can we begin to tune into what’s really happening in the room.
It’s a conversation about what meetings reveal, what we’re really defending against, and how we might begin to engage more honestly, with our work, and with each other.
