David Sibbet studied with Arthur M. Young from 1976-1982 and based much of The Grove Consultants International’s process work on his Theory of Process. This series is for people who would like to dig under the various applications (Team Performance; Group Graphic Keyboard; Seven Challenge of Change) and learn the core conceptual tools. It is one of the most powerful integrative languages for process design, and potentially the basis of a new paradigm where consciousness and matter are appreciated as tightly linked. Arthur called his Theory the Yoga of Thinking. David likes to think of it as the discipline behind conceptual jazz.
