This article is the final exposition of Bernd Schmid's keynote speech presented at the 2007 International Transactional Analysis Conference in San Francisco. Schmid is the winner of the 2007 Eric Berne Memorial Award for his adaption of the transactional analysis concept of ego states. His role model integrates transactional analysis approaches with systemic ideas and can be used as both a personality model and a communication model. It expands the ego state model, describing the individual as the portfolio of his or her roles played on the stages of his or her world. Background information about these ideas are provided along with perspectives that are integrated in this role model. Familiar concepts—including intuition, encounter, empathy, humanity, and spirituality—are described from the point of view of an integrated approach.
