A Participative Webinar with Peter Garrett

Peter Garrett

"Bohm believed that the Implicate Order which had made a breakthrough in theoretical physics was applicable to human interaction." Peter Garrett reflects on his long friendship with David Bohm and the dialogue weekends they ran together across several countries during the 1980s.

Peter Garrett takes us back to the origins of Professional Dialogue in this webinar focused on David Bohm's Ontology and the Implicate Order. Drawing on his long friendship with Bohm, Garrett reflects on what they were trying to create together through dialogue practice. In the 1980s, Bohm viewed fragmentary thinking as damaging the world and believed the Implicate Order that had transformed theoretical physics could be applied to human interaction. Garrett and Bohm experimented with dialogue weekends for several years across multiple countries, developing the approach that would later be applied in prison systems, multinational companies, and ultimately through the Academy of Professional Dialogue. After Bohm's death, Garrett has carried their shared work forward. Cohosts Nancy Dixon and Linda Ellinor interview Garrett before participants move into small groups for reflection. For practitioners interested in understanding dialogue's intellectual foundations from someone who helped create them, this offers rare first-hand perspective.
