Counselling, Training & Facilitating

I work with teams and organisations to offer a range of highly rated training workshops designed to address challenging work-related issues and promote positive working environments.   I have particular experience of training within local authorities and an understanding of the specific needs of local government and their diverse workforce.  
 

About the trainers

My co-trainers are Dr. Chris Johnstone, a specialist in the psychology of change and author of `Find Your Power’ and Karl Gregory, an independent counsellor, trainer and consultant with experience of mental health and counselling in the public and private sector.  Together we have delivered a series of successful and well-received workshops which encourage managers and staff to develop their communication skills and emotional intelligence.   

How can training help your organisation?
 

Bullying and harassment, conflict at work and work-related stress are all familiar issues in the workplace and they are costly.  If left unaddressed, they can cause high levels of anxiety, lower staff morale, lower productivity, resulting in staff sickness and poor retention of staff. 

Training can help staff to learn about workplace behaviour – their own and their colleagues’ - and learn how to challenge it and manage it appropriately. 

The workshops are designed to

·         provide practical tools and techniques for effective management

·         increase self-awareness

·         improve communication skills

·         improve wellbeing and productivity in teams

·         promote positive working environments

·        provide a safe and supportive training environment which encourages personal
   growth and professional development

The trainings draw on the Health & Safety Executive’s approach to managing work-related stress and on positive psychology approaches to managing change. 

What to do if your organisation has training needs
 

Staff surveys, exit interviews, feedback from staff appraisals and sickness figures can reveal useful information about the health of your organisation. 

For further information about the trainings please follow the link to Workshops.  If you have particular organisational needs for trainings not mentioned please do give me a call for an informal chat without obligation.
