A one-day gathering for all interested in a psychoanalytic approach to group life—exploring the unimaginable and what is yet to be dreamed!
About this Event

Theme

In a world undergoing profound transformation, we will gather, in-person around the theme: “Exploring the Unimaginable” in group life.

The unimaginable is not simply the unknown—it includes what has been defended against, split off, or rendered unspeakable. In exploring it, we may encounter realms of pain, fear, trauma, taboo, and the deep losses that shape our collective experience. These may include hard-won achievements now under threat.

Yet the unimaginable also points to what has not yet been dreamed. It invites us into the generative space of the unconscious—where meaning can emerge, be symbolized, and transformed. In this space, new vitality, hope, and imagination can take root.

Intention

The event offers an inviting space for all with an interest in a psychoanalytic approach on organizational systems. We will come together,

  • to engage in dialogues with each other
  • to think together and to allow for clarity to take form
  • for new insights to emerge
  • for new connections to emerge as well as develop existing ones

Program

Through social dreaming, reflective dialogue, and thought-provoking presentations, we will explore the theme. By allowing the unimaginable to surface, we may find new pathways to growth, freedom, eros, aliveness—toward joy, intimacy, pleasure, and creative expansion.

As the program is finalized and presenters are confirmed, we will update this page—please stay tuned!

Hosts

The event is a partnership between ISPSO https://ispso.org/ and TNYC https://www.nycgrouprelations.org/. You can read more by visiting their websites.
