Target
Leaders in high-stakes rooms facing what the groups cannot hold alone.
Scope
Learn the metabolic cycle. Read somatic markers of systemic anxiety. Learn to hold the group and the self.
Why Mirror?
What is your group's core task? What feelings in the room does it trigger? What if the room's anxiety lands on you?
In high-stakes rooms, the patterns that drive decisions — suppressed dissent, false consensus, unnamed pressure — are invisible to the people inside them. Unmanaged group dynamics cost companies over €8K a year per head in lost time alone. That's the silent cost.
Learning to hold the mirror in groups helps to surface what the room cannot see about itself — so you can act on what is actually happening, not on what the room presents.
See the pattern. Hold the room. Move the system.
