The Kilkea Design: — a proven formula for on international development Workshop

Abstract

This workshop was designed for a predetermined number of participants drawn from many different parts of Europe. Within the programme delegates in preselected groups undertook diagnoses of real company situations as a means of providing them with a common shared experience of the workshop theme—The Development of Supervision. The chosen companies, whose plants were the subject of direct study, were representative of a wide range of industries and had their roots in three continents. The working languages were both English and French. The workshop was held in Ireland in May 1980 and came to be called the Kilkea Experience by participants—Kilkea, because of the venue, Kilkea Castle, which is situated in the countryside some 40 miles from Dublin.
