While studying in the Process Work diploma program, I began wondering how I could integrate all of the personal therapy skills I was developing into my work as an organizational consultant. Most of my consulting work over the years has been with groups, and CEOs or team leaders are the people who usually hire me. I began to wonder how a Process-oriented study of the leader of a business could help the organization to discover its myth and inform its future strategic planning. I wanted to explore whether there were links between the CEO’s personal process and what is happening in the organization. This paper provided me with an opportunity to bridge a Process
-oriented study of an individual with the group dynamics involved in the larger organization. I am tremendously grateful for the opportunity to have worked with this organization and its CEO, who, in this paper, I call Tony. To protect privacy and confidentiality, I have changed the names of all employees mentioned and refer to the organization by the fictional name of ABC Engineers.
