The FINANCIAL -- The EFMD website features an article on Ashridge Business School's Centre for Action Research backing a UK wide tour of the film, ‘An Ecology of Mind’.

This is a documentary about the life and work of Gregory Bateson. Bateson’s way of thinking is a major influence on Ashridge consultants and faculty who use action research principles in their practice. And this benefits many organisations both in the UK and other parts of the world.

According to Ashridge Business School, the film, directed and presented by his daughter, Nora Bateson, explores Gregory’s ideas about relationships, connections and patterns - continues to influence and provoke new thinking about human and non human communication, culture, ecological thinking, art, design and health.

The film is on a worldwide tour and includes several venues in the UK including London, Manchester, Glasgow and Bristol.

Kevin Power, a member of faculty at Ashridge, is among the group that has arranged the screenings and seminars in the UK.
