Founded in 1972, Indian Society for Applied Behavioural Science (ISABS) is a national, voluntary society of behavioural scientists engaged in applying their knowledge and skill to the well being of persons, organisations, communities and the society at large. Its members work as independent consultants, trainers, counsellors, academicians, human resource development managers and community change agents.

About ISABS

ISABS programmes focus on human processes and aim at helping people to understand them better, and discover more creative and satisfying ways of relating and working. ISABS utilises group and experience-based learning as its main training method. Experiencing, reflecting, hypothesizing, conceptualising and experimenting rather than lectures are the chief ingredients in this process of learning. ISABS also offers programmes to develop professionals capable of facilitating such experiencebased learning in organisational and societal contexts.

Human Process
Laboratories

In a Human Process Laboratory, a group of around 10-12 participants work together along with a facilitator to learn about human processes, and in the process discover more about themselves, their strengths, their styles, their interpersonal and group interactions, how they perceive others, and are perceived by others. While this is the primary task, there is no predetermined agenda and the group uses the here and now experience to derive this learning, using each other as a resource. The facilitators help create a climate for such learning.

About
Dona Sylvia

A luxury resort in South Goa, Dona Sylvia, with its courteous staff, cottage style rooms, sprawling lawns and open-air restaurant by the poolside is well-equipped to take care of ISABS participants. The whispering trees along the private pathway to the beach and the gentle breeze by the sea take the summer heat off, and are ideal for the kind of learning ISABS programmes offer to participants
