Ever thought your group of friends could solve 'world peace', if only you had the resources and authority to get on with it. If you do, this seminar and discussion is for you!
This intriguing event is about working in groups, sometimes online groups, to solve complex problems.
How much benefit is there from diverse opinions and experiences? How do you harness the collective intellectual horsepower from people who irritate you?
We'll look at what psychology and the theory of networks and relationships can contribute to solving world sized problems. Be prepared to get involved in discussions and 'committee' meetings.
