Courageous Conduct Intervention (in house)

<p>The Sales Accelerator programme is a fresh approach to improving business development productivity. It focuses on identifying and using a series of business productivity metrics in order to build a clear action plan for improving sales results - typically within 90 days. The metrics are grouped under three headings:</p><p>The basic principle is that a small improvement in each area can lead to a significant increase in sales results and productivity. And the object of the programme is to show how best to achieve that.</p><p>The programme therefore looks at each of these three areas in turn, spending a day on each.</p><p>Suitable for any and all businesses and all levels of experience and expertise, this is a remarkably practical and hands-on programme. During the workshop, participants discuss, review and apply many proven sales and marketing techniques and personal selling ideas. The goal is to generate and commit to changes and actions that can lead to a 10-30% increase in the next three to six months.</p><p>There's also a consultancy option, rather than the workshop-based programme.

<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>

There is often very little appreciation and understanding of the complexities of managing today's mission-critical data centers where downtime is not an option, especially since many of the data centers are operating at, or near, their design limits. Operations management at the facilities layer makes all the difference. Even a data center designed to the highest redundancy level as per the ANSI/TIA-942 standard could still experience many unscheduled downtime events due to poor planning, operations, maintenance and management processes.</p></div><div id="course-pills-2"><h4>Service Level Management</h4><ul><li>Service Level Management</li><li>Needs analysis</li><li>Capability assessment</li><li>Service portfolio</li><li>Service catalogue</li><li>Service Level Agreements (SLAs)</li><li>Availability measurement</li><li>Data points in SLA</li><li>Service reporting</li><li>Complaint procedure</li><li>Customer satisfaction measurement</li><li>Service Improvement Process (SIP)</li><li>SLA content</li></ul><h4>The Data Center Organization</h4><ul><li>Operational issues</li><li>Organization chart</li><li>Roles and responsibilities</li><li>Skills matrix</li><li>Contingency / backup roles</li><li>Shift management</li><li>Performance management</li><li>Career development</li><li>Training and assessment</li><li>Job rotation</li><li>Succession planning</li><li>Disciplinary program</li></ul><h4>Managing Safety &amp; Statutory Requirements</h4><ul><li>Safety policies and regulations</li><li>Occupational Health and Safety (OH&amp;S)</li><li>Safety awareness training</li><li>Permit to Work (PTW)</li><li>Lock-out / Tag-out</li><li>Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)</li><li>Testing and tagging of equipment</li><li>Emergency preparedness and response</li><li>Reporting of safety issues</li><li>Reviews / internal audit / external audit</li></ul><h4>Managing Physical Security</h4><ul><li>Security policies and procedures</li><li>Security standards and guidelines</li><li>Security staff</li><li>Security awareness</li><li>Security incident management</li><li>Disciplinary program</li><li>Reviews, internal and external audits</li></ul><h4>Facilities Management</h4><ul><li>Maintenance policies and procedures</li><li>Various maintenance programs</li><li>Outsourcing of maintenance activities</li><li>Maintenance contract options</li><li>Warranty</li><li>Maintenance schedule</li><li>Service situations</li><li>Spart part management</li><li>Contamination control</li></ul><h4>Data Center Operations</h4><ul><li>Policies and procedures for data center operations</li><li>Service operations and the daily data center operations</li></ul><h4>Monitoring / Reporting / Control</h4><ul><li>Monitoring requirements</li><li>Escalation procedures</li><li>Reporting</li><li>Trend analysis</li><li>Reviews</li></ul><h4>Project Management</h4><ul><li>Project management</li><li>Project organization</li><li>Project manager</li><li>Project phases</li></ul><h4>Environment Sustainability</h4><ul><li>The importance of sustainability</li><li>Sustainability policies </li><li>Environmental management </li><li>Power efficiency indicators -</li><li>Waste management -</li><li>Water management</li><li>ICT utilisation management </li><li>Environmental performance measurements</li><li>Renewable energy factor (REF)</li></ul><h4>Organizational Resilience</h4><ul><li>Business continuity</li><li>Data center facility options</li><li>Business Impact Analysis</li><li>Type of facility</li><li>Human resources</li><li>Facility, equipment and consumables</li></ul><h4>Governance, Risk and Compliance</h4><ul><li>Management commitment</li><li>Coordination, collaboration and integration</li><li>Compliance</li><li>Risk management</li><li>Document management</li><li>Financial management</li><li>Vendor management</li><li>Asset management</li></ul></div><div id="course-pills-3"><h4>Additional course details:</h4><br /><p>Nexus Humans Certified Data Center Facilities Operations Manager (CDFOM) training program is a workshop that presents an invigorating mix of sessions, lessons, and masterclasses meticulously crafted to propel your learning expedition forward. </p><p></p> This immersive bootcamp-style experience boasts interactive lectures, hands-on labs, and collaborative hackathons, all strategically designed to fortify fundamental concepts. <p></p>Guided by seasoned coaches, each session offers priceless insights and practical skills crucial for honing your expertise.

The psychological impact of critical incidents includes anxiety, depression, sleep disturbance and agitation. It can also lead to reduced motivation or morale at work, unsafe practices, and burnout.
Health and social care professionals in hospitals, residential care, and support services, who are looking after vulnerable people in challenging environments, are often exposed to distressing events. 

Critical Incident Stress Debriefings (CISDs) are brief and effective interventions. They mitigate the impact of incidents and help promote resilience and well-being. 
CISD is a facilitated, time-limited group session intended to support participants with the emotional/psychological impact of an adverse event.
The debrief is a structured group conversation about the facts, feelings, and thoughts related to the incident. A trained and competent facilitator helps the group support each other and process their reactions. 
This training is for managers, nurses, key workers, mental health professionals, counsellors/psychotherapists, or any person in charge of staff well-being in their organization. 
This excellent 2-day online training will cover theory and practice, including lectures, videos, and small-group work. When you complete the training you will be able to facilitate CISDs.
