Contextualizing Attachment Theory and Practice & Understanding Great Leadership Using the Filter of Secure Attachment

It's attachment theory day at IOC. Just because. Both of these videos were offered by Genetic Alliance as a two-part webinar on attachment theory and practice.

There will be more to come later today.

Contextualizing Attachment Theory and Practice

This program is the first of two webinars focusing on attachment theory and practice. It will give an overview with special attention to the potential uses of attachment theory for parents and family members in the advocacy community. Annmarie Early's experience as a professor and couples' therapist combines theory and practice with numerous stories of the application of attachment theory.

Understanding Great Leadership Using the Filter of Secure Attachment

This program, the second of two on attachment theory and practice, will focus on the Genetic Alliance leadership model developed over the last eight years with specific attention to attachment theory. Organizational transformation begins with ourselves as leaders and the energy, creativity, and productivity of our organization is a direct function of our leadership. Attachment theory gives a simple, clear, and direct framework for understanding the value of a leader's accessibility, responsiveness, and emotional engagement—all essential expressions of a secure attachment identity.
