Our approach is always the one of the Role taken on by the Person within a System and thus gives the priority to the articulation between: individual history; the role that the person takes on; his/her conscious and unconscious relations with the institution (company, public administration, NGO, etc), its culture; the context in which the person is performing; existing systemic dynamics.
Beyond simple personal development, we work on the transformation of the role to better exercise leadership and to take his/her authority inside the system.
Avutann’s methodology is the Institutional Transformation one, developed in France since the late 70s by the International Forum for Social Innovation (IFSI-FIIS), which prolongs the group process school, notably carried through by W.R. Bion and adds to the psychoanalytical theory as well as to the open systems the political and strategic dimensions, stemming from our experience as leaders, managers and consultants.
Several Avutann partners carry IFSI-FIIS leadership, which regularly trains new consultants in Institutional Transformation through the Leading Consultation program: it is one of the few which, in addition to providing a certification, is associated with a university program through the prestigious School of Management of the University of Bath, UK.
In the tradition of systemic and group relations schools, as well as in the Institutional Transformation one, our practice is based on learning by experience, which means that every intervention is based on a back-and-forth going between experience, analysis, discernment, theoretical elements and their concrete implementation.
Our missions are apprehended one after the other and performed depending on the client’s needs, the context and the mission’s objective settled with him/her: our set ups are thus always tailor-made: beyond dogma.
