Bowen Family Systems Thinking on Student Learning and Development


The Bowen Family Systems Theory Community of Practice is sponsoring a three-hour virtual workshop on Friday, October 13, 2023. The workshop leader will be Daniel V. Papero, PhD. The topic will be the application of Bowen Theory to student leaning and development. The workshop will start at 9:30 AM and end at 12:30 PM Eastern Standard Time. There is no cost for the workshop.


Dr. Papero has extensive education and experience in the Bowen Family Theory. After graduate training in social work at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville, Dr. Papero entered postgraduate training in family systems theory and psychotherapy at the Georgetown University Family Center. In 1982, Dr. Bowen invited him to join the faculty of the Family Center, now the Bowen Center for the Study of the Family. Over the years he has served in many administrative and teaching roles at the Center. He currently organizes a research seminar and coordinates the Theory Meeting, a bi-weekly working group dedicated to the exploration and expansion of family systems theory.

He has written numerous articles and book chapters on various aspects of family systems theory and family psychotherapy. He is the author of a basic introduction to family systems, Bowen Family Systems Theory. He and Robert Noone, PhD, co-edited the volume The Family Emotional System: An Integrative Concept for Theory, Science and Practice. He has served on the editorial board of the journal Family Systems since its founding. He currently gives many invited presentations yearly to various professional groups across the country and around the world on topics related to family systems theory, family psychotherapy, and the functioning of corporations and organizations.

In recent years he has consulted increasingly with organizations in both the private and public sectors about the impact of relationships on functioning and the emotional process of organizations.
