Ushering The Team Back To The Workplace

<h2>From Team Member to Team Leader: In-House</h2><h3>What are you letting yourself in for?</h3><p>Organisations constantly give people their first line management role because the individual has been identified as being good at their day job, not necessarily being good with people.</p><p>People skills are a very different skillset from dealing with processes and tasks. Managing people can be the best job in the world, or the worst. No-one tells you what it's like until you find out for yourself. &amp;'You'll be fine' is all you may get.</p><p>This programme is your opportunity to find out in advance what you might be letting yourself in for and whether it's right for you - whether at this stage in your career, a bit later, or perhaps never. This can save you and your organisation time, effort and heartache.</p><p>You'll find out what's needed to transition from team member to team leader. You'll learn what are the characteristics of good managers and see how you think you'll measure up. You'll discover what to look out for in the early days - what are the most common pitfalls awaiting the new manager and how can you avoid them?</p><p>It's a very practical programme which will boost your confidence in managing people and help make the learning curve a little less steep as you transition from team member to team leader. It will help you develop the skills you will need for the rest of your career - it might well be the most useful programme you ever attend!</p><h3>What's in it for you?</h3><ul><li>Have a benchmark for what great managers do and don't do - see how you measure up</li><li>Discover the pitfalls to look out for and develop strategies to deal with them</li><li>Identify your development areas to lead others effectively</li><li>Understand the importance of body language when communicating with your team - learn what to do, what not to do</li><li>Know how to deal with challenging employee behaviours</li><li>Find out what are the most common management dilemmas and how to deal with them</li><li>Boost your confidence for stepping up to management - or consider why it might not be for you</li></ul><section>

Maximum Performance

From Team Member to Team Leader: In-House

<h2>Conflict Management: In-House</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>

Fundamentals and Classics
Every Weds 6.30-7.30pm (UK time) from 26 Sept - 12 Dec (no class 17 Oct)
This autumn, we will be going back to exploring fundamental functions and relationships within our selves and our movement through the Feldenkrais Method, encountering classic lessons and discovering new ways to understand ourselves in action.
Each week we will encounter a different function or aspect that is key to our sense of being able to move with ease and freedom through our lives. For instance, we will explore our ability to turn through our spine, to round, extend or bend, as well as enlarging our repertoire of possibilities - looking to move with pleasure and reversibility. 
The first few lessons will explore Fundamental Functions. There will be an early 'half-term' the week of 17th Oct, and then the following weeks we will move through a series of outstanding Classic lessons, that will be useful to return to for yourself.
Audio recordings of each class are available afterwards, so you don't have to attend the class in person, if you can't make that evening.
