Gestalt International Study Center

Awareness of yourself and how you work with others is the path to greater influence, personal and professional growth, and ultimate success. At the Gestalt International Study Center (GISC) - our powerful and practical learning experiences help you develop the ability to act with awareness and intention, to respond to challenges with greater confidence and ease, and to create profound and positive change. WHAT WE OFFER Leadership Development Coach Training and Certification Continuing Education for Psychotherapists Personal Growth and Development Gestalt-based Learning We develop highly successful business and nonprofit leaders, as well as practitioners involved with organizational consulting, coaching, therapy, human resource development, education, and social transformation. Through years of research, observation, and application in the field, we have developed theory and applications that articulate how individuals can be most effective, how people work well together, how groups develop successful interactions, and how organizations develop high performing cultures. Our core training technology combines experiences that support self-reflection with opportunities to practice new skills; we enable participants to learn and develop in a personalized way. We are an independent nonprofit organization and a community of diverse individuals, anchored by the values of trust, optimism, generosity, and the importance of lifelong learning. We continuously refine and explore our theory and applications, and aren't bounded by the thinking or goals of any one individual or corporation. We are engaged in formal study groups, annual conferences, commissioned research, and the publication of books and academic journals as we seek to continuously deepen our insight into how people work well together.
