What does football have in common with playing defense at work?  There are games which are presented as almost larger than life, and there are games that you and I have to play, which can be nearly invisible.  We will reflect on the dynamics present throughout civilization at the collective level, and then zoom in to the game-playing going on in the systems we each function within.   We will discuss some of the common game dynamics that tend to play out from time to time, such as It's All About Me and Let's You and Her Fight. We'll see what games participants recognize in their own ongoing relationships at work, home or in any arena.  Time permitting, we may be able to get as far as considering what your next move may be.
