Little e-book about solution-focus

How can you make Solution-Focus as easy to understand as possible?

By using children stories!

I gave it a try, and now my little book of solution-focused-inspired children stories is available on Amazon as an e-book.

For educators, practitioners and change agents.

Love 2.0 and the interactional view

In her latest book, Love 2.0, the renowned Positive Psychology author Barbara Fredricksonintroduced an interactional view of love.

According to the latest research she presents in her book, love is not so much a noun but rather a verb. It is something that emerges in micro-moments of interactions between…

Hi Paolo,
just read that you won´t join the SOL 09 conference because of the magic of traveling to that island in the north sea. Would it change your situation if I offered you a seat in my car? I drive on the 13th/14th May from Germany and drive past Cologne/ the Netherlands and could pick you up anywhere! You´d spare one train... Best wishes (unknown) Gesa
