"Mastering" is a therapeutic method which re-defines and re-places the subject of authority, upon its numerous aspects in a different framework than is practice today. The method is easily understood and perceived. It facilitates the forming of acommon language, which is based on common symbols and clear rules, and is adapted to various populations.

The Method of "Authority as a Whole” (Mastering) has been developed as a tool for the therapy of families in crisis and educational organizations dealing with severe situations of loss of authority. It has been in use since 1995. Its application started in kibbutz surroundings, and has progressed to a broad range of uses in communal, organizational and clinical use. The Model combines family-system thinking, individual clinical knowledge and knowledge from the field of organizational consulting.
