What Do the Workshops Cover?
The aim of the general workshops is to help attendees gain greater self awareness of wellbeing and their individual responses to day to day life, challenging periods or life events. This improved insight provides an opportunity for attendees to improve their wellbeing and mental health overall, to better manage their current circumstances and symptoms, recognize when additional support might be beneficial and where to get it.
Workshops on wellbeing, stress and anxiety, look at the wider elements of good mental health and wellbeing and the benefits of incorporating these into our lives.
The depth and extent to which these areas are explored depend on the length of the workshop and the full day workshop covers additional considerations.
The Management Communications Workshop looks to improve outcomes between managers and managees and reduce the issues that can occur due to different communiction styles.
All workshops have opportunities for self reflection throughout.
Why a Workshop Format?
I believe that workshops are a great interactive way to learn. Delivering them in the workplace where attendees will be in familiar surroundings with colleagues, offers a more relaxed setting and optomises attendee learning and engagement. I think this environment also helps encourage talking about mental health and wellbeing more openly within the workplace.
I invite participation from all employees and feel in person, smaller groups are also more informal, enabling attendees to feel more relaxed and engaged. However, I never ask attendees to share any personal issues.
Workshop Options
Wellbeing, Stress and Anxiety
The brief workshop is a very brief overview and looks at attendees' own wellbeing, the role of wellbeing in dealing with stress/anxiety, individual response to stress and anxiety and how to reduce and better manage symptoms. This workshop lasts 1/1¼ hours.
The half day workshop covers the same areas as the brief workshop and looks at common, personal traits which can exacerbate or lead to stress/anxiety. It goes into more depth of how to reduce and better manage symptoms. This workshop lasts 2½/3 hours.
The full day workshop is CPD Accredited (click here to go to my link on the CPD website) and covers everything in the half day workshop but in a little more depth. It also looks at self care, opening up and barriers to opening up. This workshop lasts 5½/6 hours.
Manager's Communication Workshops
This full day workship is based on my core psychotherapy training of Transactional Analysis (TA). It looks more closely at individual beliefs and how they influence the way managers communicate with others and how they respond to commuication received from others. Recognizing that managers carry an additional level of responsibility and accountability, there is also a section on wellbeing, stress and anxiety.
I can, however, adapt and create workshops to suit your business needs.
