Description
Learn in a classroom environment with your peers, virtually, with an instructor online.
Course Length: 1 Day
Target Audience: General
Learning Objectives:
Perhaps the most powerful instrument we have in helping our employees and others navigate change is ourselves. Our ability to use ourselves relies in large part on the level of awareness we have about the impact we make, and our ability to make choices, to direct and modify that impact. During the workshop, there will be experiential exercises combined with reflection and discussion to provide an opportunity for participants to increase their awareness of themselves as potent instruments of change and to increase their range of options around the use of self in impacting the improvement of the work environment as well as relationships with colleagues, direct reports and superiors.
- Participants will heighten their awareness of some of what may be motivates them when they feel “hooked” by a person or lose their sense of choice, either in a personal or professional setting.
- Participants will increase their self awareness by focusing on how they are present, how they influence, and how they make contact others.
- Participants will explore and understand situations where they get “hooked” by someone’s behaviour – and become reactive and lose their ability to choose their response. Through reflection and discussion, participants will explore and choose strategies that help them become “unhooked” and more effective in these situations; moving from reaction to choosing how to act.
- Participants will explore and acquire communication skills that facilitate giving and receiving feedback.
