Ranging across Tavistock approaches to consulting with teams and organisations: a history, an inventory of key concepts, and links to key organisations

Abstract

This article has been written to describe the history and range of Tavistock approaches to consulting with teams and organisations that have been key influences in my own experiences and consultancy practice over many decades. My hope is that it will provide some background for newcomers to our field as well as being a summary and literature review for others who are more experienced seeking some overview of our field.
