2004, it was offered during the whole annual meeting (morning and evening
during the PD Workshops and mornings of Members’ Day and Symposium). =
As
the ‘function’ of Social Dreaming has changed from a valuable
opportunity to experience a new method of inquiry to a means for accessing =
new
thoughts and thinking about social and organizational life, it is now a fou=
rth
element of Annual Meetings. A Social Dreaming Matrix session is offered to =
all
participants of the Annual Meeting every morning. (There is no charge for t=

Social Dreaming Matrix.)
Social Dreaming is a method of working and
thinking that uses dreams as the key form for communication. In Social Drea=
ming
the participants focus on the emerging dream rather than the individual
dreamer. The work involves associating to one’s own and others´
dreams, so that they are made available to learning about what they contain=
and
reveal about social and organizational reality.
