Tiivistelmä: | Paradox is inherent in groups. Impasse is one kind of development from paradox and results from one polarity to eliminate another. This study serves a dual purpose: 1. to clarify the nature and occurrence of impasse in groups towards defining and categorizing it; and 2. to use these findings as a means for diagnosing impasse and providing intervention to resolve it. It is a partial report of findings from a research project which contributed to the field of Organizational Gestalt and supported a paradoxical perspective to group life. This qualitative study used direct observation, surveys and interview methods. |
