Virtual Reality and Screen Relations in Clinical Practice – exploring co-creation, inclusivity and exclusivity- Ronen Stilman
There has been a dramatic shift in the way that psychotherapy is delivered, supervised, and taught following the COVID-19 pandemic. With screens and sensory-based technology seemingly everywhere and anywhere in our daily lives, many people in and out of the psychotherapy community were forced into an expanding virtual world that can sometimes be seen as foreign and alien but can also afford new possibilities and experiences. In this workshop, I will invite practitioners to reflect on their relationship with technology and consider interpersonal and political dynamics at play. I will offer some emerging thoughts and observations about the virtual space that is co-created when relating through screens and how might we begin to understand the shift in the way that we relate and identify online. I will invite participants to account for new emerging issues of inclusion, exclusion and power presented as a result of these changes, and explore what might be gained by paying attention to these dynamics.

The coordination style: a test for middle managers – Ugo Danilo De Ambrogio TSTA (O)
Today the life of organizations is complex, in fact, they find themselves dealing with a liquid society with unpredictable market trends and increasing difficulties.
As a consultant, trainer, coach and researcher, using the A. Mountain’s model (the tripartite ok corral positions: I, You, the Organisation), I have developed a test for middle management, tested in various of my research, functional to identify 8 middle management styles. The test can be useful in organizational diagnosis research and in coaching middle managers, to get to know each other better, improve their behaviours and feel better in their organizational role. The workshop intends offer to participants the opportunity to experience a diagnosis of their own role style. During the speech (first ten minutes) a test will be proposed to the participants. Participants will draw stimulating reflections on their own style, its strengths and the obstacles it faces and will also know and gain possession of a powerful and useful organizational role diagnosis tool for promoting effective processes of organizational improvement.
