Winter Meeting

The next meeting of the British Institute of Graphologists will be held on Saturday 25th November 2023, via Zoom. 

11.00 - 12.30 John Beck - The inferiority complex: is it all bad?

Whilst being able to recognise an inferiority complex in a handwriting is not such a difficult task, communicating its ramifications to a writer in the report is fraught with potential hazards  Are we aware that what we say to the writer about it can easily make matters worse for him or her?

This lecture hopes to show that feelings of inferiority may well not be the disabling complex many believe, and if approached from an entirely different angle, it can possibly even work to the writer's benefit.

12.30 - 13.00  AGM

25th November 2023 (Zoom),
