Workshop on Contracts

Dr Pearl Drego, the only Eric Berne Memorial Award winner from India is leading a workshop on contracts in NCTA 2023.  Lack of clear contract is one of the major reasons for the relationships to fail. Be it in personal or professional relationship – a contract assures efficiency and smooth functioning. When a husband and the wife discounts legal or psychological contract of their marriage, relationship get spoiled.
