250Hereâs the thing: thereâs plenty of <a href="https://www.leadershipakrice.org/registration">scholarship funds available</a>. AKRI wants to make GRC learning available to everyone and will offer generous support to anyone for whom money is an obstacle. If you know someone whoâs been putting off getting to a residential conference, now is the time. There will never be more support available. And just a few months before AKRIâs 50th Anniversary Dialogues, thereâs no better time to (re-)connect with AKRI and learn together with the AKRI community.  <br /><br />I hope many of you will join us, and I count on you all to recruit others so that the conference can thrive. Thank you for all your efforts, and I look forward to seeing all of you at the Dialogues!

The location was a new one—the Maritime Conference Center, near Baltimore. Though the name suggests waterfront views and sunsets over the Chesapeake, it was actually located in an office park near BWI airport (the “maritime” referring to the industry it serves as a training facility and meeting space). The AKRI Board wasn’t the only group there—the dining room and lounge were made lively by members of a bricklayers' union and the Maryland Association of Non-Profits. </p> 327<p>The location wasn’t the only thing new at this retreat. Ed Shapiro and Seth Harkins joined the Board as Internal Directors representing the Affiliate sector; Sheri-Ann Cowie joined as a new Internal Director; and it was my first retreat as president. The Board also re-appointed Ian Pritchard vice-president; appointed Keith Lequay as treasurer and Seth Harkins as secretary. We’d like to thank our out-going president, Neil Neidhardt, our out-going treasurer, Laura Dorsey-Elson, and our out-going secretary, Frank Marrocco, for their service. </p> 328 </div> 329 330 <h6><a href="/index.php?option=com_dailyplanetblog&view=entry&year=2018&month=12&day=27&id=20:report-from-the-fall-board-retreat">Read More</a></h6> 331 332 333 334 335 336 </div> 337 338 <div class="post"> 339 <div class="post-header"> 340 341 342 <h1 class="post-title"><a href="/index.php?option=com_dailyplanetblog&view=entry&year=2018&month=10&day=01&id=19:transitions-the-upcoming-board-retreat" rel="bookmark" title="Transitions & The Upcoming Board Retreat">Transitions & The Upcoming Board Retreat</a> 343 344 345 </h1> 346 347 <div class="post-info"> 348 <div class="post-author">by: 349 350 351 <a href="/index.php?option=com_dailyplanetblog&author=1002584721">Jack Marmorstein</a> 352 353 354 355 </div> 356 <div class="post-category">Category: <a href="/index.php?option=com_dailyplanetblog&category=announcements" title="VIEW ALL POSTS IN" rel="category">Announcements</a></div> 357 </div> 358 359 360 </div> 361 <div id="component" class="post-content"> 362 <div class="post-date"> 363 <div class="post-month">

412 It’s actually our fourth Whole Systems Consulting event, and the second weekend workshop led by René Molenkamp and Mark Kiel. These events have been remarkably successful and we believe that they reflect a demand in the GR community for additional training events focused on application. I’d like to briefly describe the backstory and the “why” behind these events, as well as some reasons I think they’re quite special.</p> 413<p>There’s always been widespread awareness of the difference between Group Relations Conference (GRC) consulting and professional roles that involve consulting. The AKRI membership has its share of the latter—whether full-time OD practitioners, or those whose professional roles involve consulting to the realities of their system (e.g., managerial, clinical, administrative, pastoral, or leadership roles). But while AKRI offered formal training to become a GRC consultant, it offered nothing formal to develop the applied consulting skills in the world. </p> 414 </div> 415 416 <h6><a href="/index.php?option=com_dailyplanetblog&view=entry&year=2018&month=09&day=18&id=18:whole-systems-consulting-workshop-coming-up-">Read More</a></h6> 417 418 419 420 421 422 </div> 423 424 <div class="post"> 425 <div class="post-header"> 426 427 428 <h1 class="post-title"><a href="/index.php?option=com_dailyplanetblog&view=entry&year=2018&month=01&day=24&id=17:the-next-akri-dialogues-and-akri-s-50th-anniversary" rel="bookmark" title="The Next AKRI Dialogues and AKRIâs 50th Anniversary">The Next AKRI Dialogues and AKRIâs 50th Anniversary</a> 429 430 431 </h1> 432 433 <div class="post-info"> 434 <div class="post-author">by: 435 436 437 <a href="/index.php?option=com_dailyplanetblog&author=1002584721">Jack Marmorstein</a> 438 439 440 441 </div> 442 <div class="post-category">Category: <a href="/index.php?option=com_dailyplanetblog&category=announcements" title="VIEW ALL POSTS IN" rel="category">Announcements</a></div> 443 </div> 444 445 446 </div> 447 <div id="component" class="post-content"> 448 <div class="post-date"> 449 <div class="post-month">Jan</div> 450 <div class="post-day">25</div> 451 </div> 452 453 <p><strong>Who wants to help organize the party?</strong></p> 454<p> The past few months have seen two exciting celebrations of the rich history of GR work in the world.

The Board joined Ellen in her vision to offer our support to Group Relations work the world over, and AKRI donated to the scholarship funds for the event.

535Social Systems (aka, Boston Center) is putting on their annual residential Conference in Dover, MA.

Ian Pritchard, who’s been serving as interim Vice-President since June, enthusiastically accepted our nomination to continue in the role and was unanimously elected. Laura Dorsey-Elson offered her services in the role of treasurer, and the Board unanimously voted in favor. And Frank Marrocco offered to serve as Secretary, and was also unanimously elected. </span></p> 577<p><span>Our departing treasurer, Robin Engels-Heitzman, offered some important consultations to the Board about how to enhance both the success of the individual in the role, and the whole Board’s work with the financial aspects of its work. It’s with special gratitude, then, that we elected Laura, and that other Board members—including Jack Marmorstein in his role as President-Elect, and Keith Lequay, who, earlier in his career, worked in the banking sector—offered their services to make the treasurer a less isolated role.
