So much of what may be helpful or harmful centres around the peer group.

We will explore.....

• The peer group ‘norms’. Cohesiveness via a code of conduct and exclusiveness.
• The structure and differing roles played within the group.
• The creation of the peer group culture.
• The ‘sexualisation’ of young adolescents.
• The Motherly and Fatherly principle. The King becomes the Shepherd.
• Trust.... negotiation.....power. Exploring our unconscious authority patterns.
• Stress identification and management. The Organisation, the Group, the Individual in examining our dominance’s. Striving for balance.
• The tool box. Practical way to work with the peer group.
