Check-In:  A Powerful Group Process
for achieving group productivity and intimacy 

Come to our September Meeting and experience “Check-In” — a time-proven but seldom used tool that can dramatically improve group dynamics.  This technique was originally developed at the NTL Institute by Charlie and Edie Seashore.   

There is really no preparation required for this, but if you would like to have something to think about you should simply reflect on what has been happening for you in the past week and how you are feeling about that.

We try to have a “Check-In” meeting every year or so, and usually there is much buzz amongst everyone after it.  Someone commented:  “One year people would not leave for up to two hours after the meeting!”

Facilitator:   Gene Ruckle will lead our Check-In session.  Gene is a graduate of the AU/NTL Masters Program in Organization Development.  During the program Gene worked with Charlie and Edie Seashore, who are often referred to as grandparents of O.D.  They and many others from NTL created and refined this powerful methodology. And they taught it in the NTL Program!

Please join us on September 12 at UD and experience Check-In!
