Volume 2.1 - May 2010 One year on … what’s better? SFCT has now been functioning for just over a year. In that time we have seen much progress. This is the third issue of InterAction, which is helping us to establish SF as a credible intellectual, as well as practical, tradition as we build links with universities and academics around the world.

This 2024 edition of the InterAction Collection is taking you along on a journey, offering a sustainable view of innovative practices, insightful research, and compelling stories that inspire the solution-focused evolution.
As our world navigates through tumultuous times, the significance of creating solutions rather than focusing on problems has never been more apparent.

Growing your practice of SF in organisations We are delighted to launch this 2018 edition of the Solution Focus in Organisations Online InterAction Journal.
It is in the nature of SF that it can be found everywhere. Yet it is not shapeless. We can grasp hold of it, know it when we see it, and make what is working grow. This edition demonstrates some very unique ways of noticing where SF can be found and where noticing takes us.

Volume 3.1 - May 2011 How can we learn from each other to make SF trainings more effective? That’s the key question to be addressed at the forthcoming SFCT Trainers Conference on 28–29 October 2011. This will be the first meeting anywhere to focus expli- citly on SF training for around five years, and it’s about time this issue was readdressed.

What can we know about Solution Focus? How do we con- duct research into our subject matter most appropriate- ly? The classic paper by Paul Cilliers featured in this edition of InterAction talks about what we can know. It makes the point that a “modest position” between “absolute knowledge” and “relativism” is most appropriately adopted when you are deal- ing with complex systems.

Volume 4.1 - May 2012 SFCT hosted a very successful and inspiring trainers conference in October 2011. There were around 70 participants from 15 countries and 4 continents. We are very happy that most of the institutes which offer trainings for SF in organisations were represented and contributed to our discus sions. This issue of InterAction focuses on the results of the trainers’ conference and aims to continue the discussion on these emerging topics.
