ABSTRACT
In this chapter, the authors like to have periods of general discussion in the large group, and from the questions raised, one of us might go to the “blackboard” to make a diagram, or outline some points which help to clarify a theoretical point. They would inevitably present the theoretical framework which underpins the thinking and the concepts presented during the workshop. The content of the theoretical framework is slightly different each time the authors present because the people are inevitably influenced by the most recent discussion or case they have taken part in and also because changing the approach keeps us fresh and interested in our own presentation. The identification of the pattern introduces the concept of the observer of the pattern. No pattern exists without someone on the scene who punctuates events in such a way that they are seen as a pattern.
