Il listening post

This chapter discusses the development of and the reflection on a method for an organisational intervention inspired by and based upon the methodology of the Listening Post. The chapter is based on a theoretical framework that includes contributions from Bion (e.g. the psychoanalytical approach to thinking; the alpha function and the dynamics container/contained; basic assumptions and working groups; +K and –K), from the group relations tradition and from Khaleelee and Miller’s seminal work on “society as an intelligible field of study”.
