Schein

Professor Edgar Schein, MIT Sloan School of Management will be giving a lecture at CBS on the nature of helping. In his lecture, Professor Schein will explore the nature of helping and its implications for leadership and group dynamics.
The concept of helping can be defined by using different words such as: assisting, aiding, advising, coaching, consulting, counselling, supporting, teaching, etc. Professor Schein exposes and shows how to resolve the inequities and role ambiguities of helping relationships.
