Individuals and families manifest in their behavior their ancestors' influence even without having met them. This is the result of unconscious communication that runs between family members from one generation to another. Organizations also experience such dynamics because they have scripts based on their founder's personality. Based on biographical information about Eric Berne and recent discussions about his script, the author analyzes the transactional analysis transgenerational script. The author aims to understand the way his script may be affecting the development of transactional analysis organizations, to improve dissemination of transactional analysis as it is understood and practiced today, and to further efforts to obtain the academic merit that the theory deserves. The purpose is to modify the narrative of the transactional analysis script by becoming conscious of the fundamental role that practitioners have in the way they teach, discuss, and transmit this theory. The author suggests that transactional analysts can reconstruct the limiting part of this script and, at the same time, reinforce the positive part. That process will facilitate the recognition of the value of Eric Berne's contribution to humankind
