Greetings from Arizona !
I think that co-facilating is a great way to learn and share skills and that
it works best when both are very clear as to precisely why they decide to work
together. Early on in the 1990s and after that I learned a lot about SCW by
co-facilitating with some of my German colleagues who are also friends who
wanted to learn more about trauma. This was greatly beneficial to both .
Working with Karl-Heinz has been quite different in that we began with me
focusing on trauma and leaving the most of the constellating to him and after
awhile we realized that this was not working and so now we do not
differentiate, at all except for the "Healing Voices" shamanic dimensions.
This was an adjustment for me which is still evolving as is our work together
which will continue as long as we both benefit, along with our students and
clients. Also, when we are working together with focus on the collective, and
such huge,wide ranging, highly charged topics the scope of the work is much
more manageable with two of us.
I also think that a key factor in successful collaboration requires clear
communication,a degree of mutual trust and respect,as well as a clear avoidance
any kind of competitive agenda or dynamic.
All for now,
