<h2>Assertiveness: In-House</h2><p>When people are assertive they portray a strong, confident image and can put their views across while still taking other people's opinions into account.</p><p>Non-assertive, passive aggressive or aggressive behaviour can cause misunderstandings, frustration and even a breakdown in relationships at work.</p><p>In this highly practical session participants discover how effective body language, voice, and the words they say make a big difference to the results they get. Importantly, they learn how to build confidence that leads to assertive behaviour more of the time. And how to disagree without being disagreeable!</p><ul><li>Recognise the differences between assertive, aggressive and passive behaviour</li><li>Understand the impact your behaviour has on people</li><li>Make assertive requests - and follow up effectively</li><li>Say 'no', where appropriate</li><li>Be more assertive in meetings</li><li>Give negative feedback - without giving offence</li></ul><section>

<h2>Public Service Manager Programme</h2><p>Volatility, uncertainty, complexity and ambiguity - the classic VUCA environment - are the order of the day. If this is the new normal, you need all the help you can get.</p><p>And that's why we developed this programme. Inspired by a tried-and-tested programme we already deliver for private sector organisations, this programme has been designed by our two lead specialists in public service management - Amanda Dudman and David Elverson. Amanda focuses on the management side of the equation, helping even the most experienced managers find new ways of working more effectively, while David focuses on supporting the commercial agenda.</p><p>Aimed at public service managers and leaders who line manage others, this ILM-recognised programme takes a modular approach and gives participants plenty of tools and strategies for dealing with current challenges in the workplace through expert trainer input and skills practice.</p><p>In addition, there is the opportunity to learn from peers, share experiences, address how to deal with the more challenging issues, and prepare action plans to implement with confidence back at work.</p><p>Tough times continue for public services as internal and external drivers in a fast-moving landscape put ever more pressure on managers, the 'squeezed middle'. Demands on resources and time mean that managers need practical and workable everyday solutions and approaches that support them in their busy, stretching daily work.</p><section>

Leadership in a Day!: In-House

<h2>Conflict Management</h2><p>'Conflict' is a word that conjures up many emotions. It is something that most people would prefer to avoid, if possible. Work can be an emotive place. Positive relationships can make your life at work exciting, motivating and challenging, whilst relationships you regard as negative can make your life very difficult and stressful, especially if there is conflict between you and your manager.</p><p>This workshop is essential for people who want to understand where conflict can be used to positive effect, how to manage it in working relationships and how to use it as something positive that can stimulate the working environment.</p><p>Research has shown that relationships at work are an extremely high motivational factor, significantly more important than salary for a lot of people. It is therefore essential that we invest in relationships and search out new ways to make them better in order to have a more positive influence on our surroundings. By understanding why other people are in conflict we can manage the conversation a lot better, with outcomes managed more effectively so the 'conflict' will add value to the organisation.</p><p>This highly participative one-day workshop covers a wide variety of exercises and personal stories, and leaves participants with a clear strategy to identify when they are in conflict with someone and how they will structure their approach to get to a satisfactory outcome.</p><h3>Learning Objectives</h3><p>At the end of the session, participants will be able to:</p><ul><li>Understand their key relationships and the strength of those relationships</li><li>Use their Strengths Deployment Inventory (SDI) profile to identify where to deploy their strengths</li><li>Understand what is important to them and their key stakeholders</li><li>Know how motivational value systems can influence behaviour</li><li>Tailor their communication style to match other people's</li><li>Use proven strategies to resolve conflict with others</li><li>Be more assertive when challenging</li><li>Achieve key personal, departmental and organisational objectives</li></ul><section>

Conflict Management

<p>Stress continues to have a major impact in organisations. According to HSE research, the total number of working days lost due to this condition last year was 9.9 million days with stress accounting for 43% of all working days lost due to ill health. Despite this huge impact, CIPD research shows that many organisations are failing to take adequate steps to proactively identify and reduce stress in the workplace and many struggle to recognise and support staff who are already suffering from stress-related symptoms.</p>
<p>This programme has therefore been designed to help HR professionals identify how they can best support their organisation in preventing, reducing and managing stress. It recognises the role that HR can play in helping develop proactive strategies to reduce incidents of work-related stress as well as helping individuals to cope with or recover from stressful situations. It also recognises the important role that HR has in equipping managers with the necessary knowledge, skills and confidence to manage stress within their team appropriately. The workshop provides participants with a wealth of ideas, strategies and tools to use within their organisations. It draws on current research, best practice guidance, lessons from case law and learning from a wide range of organisations in the form of case studies.</p><ul><li>UNDERSTAND THE IMPACT OF STRESS AT WORK AND THE CAUSES OF WORK-RELATED STRESS</li><li>UNDERSTAND THE BENEFITS OF PROACTIVELY MANAGING STRESS, INCLUDING MINIMISING LEGAL RISK</li><li>KNOW HOW HR CAN BEST SUPPORT THE ORGANISATION AS A WHOLE IN MANAGING STRESS AND, IN PARTICULAR, HOW TO SUPPORT MANAGERS PREVENT AND RESPOND APPROPRIATELY TO STRESS WITHIN THEIR TEAM</li><li>HAVE LEARNT HOW OTHER ORGANISATIONS TACKLE STRESS AND THE RANGE OF SUPPORT AND WIDER TOOLS AND INITIATIVES AVAILABLE</li><li>HAVE REVIEWED HOW THEIR ORGANISATION PREVENTS AND MANAGES STRESS AND HAVE IDENTIFIED AREAS FOR IMPROVEMENT</li></ul><section>
