Welcome to The Kantor Institute.
Evidence based results...
The Kantor Institute provides materials and training for coaches and executives. We like to say: what matters most happens face-to-face. Our theory, Structural Dynamics, is a theory of face-to-face communication, explaining how communication works when it does, how it changes from one context to another, how it breaks down under pressure, and why in these high pressure situations people react differently.
From remote diagnosis for a small team, to a company-wide communications diagnostic and associated training, the Kantor Institute has real-world workable solutions for communication problems.
The Kantor Institute offers Small-Team Intervention services, Accelerating Team Performance services, consulting and advising, as well as a host of materials on Structural Dynamics and the 4-Player model.

Intervention

The Kantor Institute offers a wide range of programs and materials to help you create the intervention right for you...

The Institute
Breakdown in communication is the bane of nations, institutions, business leaders and their subordinates, organizations and their teams, families, couples, and their children. David Kantor has spent decades investigating how communication works and how it breaks down, when it matters most. When effective communication matters most is in situations of high stakes.
Kantor has systematically studied teams, families, and couples in low, medium and high stakes situations. From this research he has derived a theory of the structure of face-to-face communication applicable in all human systems. And from 45 years of testing this ever-evolving theory in clinical contexts as therapist and organizational consultant, he has created a Practice Theory whose effectiveness can actually be measured...Read more.
