<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 that do not hold value to you could make your life very difficult and stressful, especially if there is conflict between you and your manager. This course is essential for people who want to understand where conflict can be used to positive effect and how to manage conflict in your working relationships and see it as something positive that can stimulate the environment.</p><p>Research has shown that relationships at work are an extremely high motivational factor, and for a lot of people it has a higher importance that salary! Therefore, it is 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 participative event will cover a wide variety of exercises and personal stories, and leave course 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>This is a workshop that targets anyone where conflict needs to be managed and cannot seem to resolve it, whether internally or externally. At the end of the day, participants will:<ul><li>Know their key relationships and the strength of those relationships</li><li>Complete the Strengths Deployment Inventory (SDI) to identify where you deploy your strengths</li><li>Understand what is important to you and your key stakeholders</li><li>Know how motivational value systems can influence behaviour</li><li>Tailor your communication style to match that of your opposite party</li><li>Know conflict strategies to resolve conflict in others</li><li>Learn to be more assertive when challenging</li><li>Achieve key personal, departmental and organisational objectives</li></ul><section>

<p>This workshop will help you create, develop and close business opportunities using a consultative approach and a value-based (not price-led) proposition.</p><p>Value-based selling means working the way your customer wants to buy, not how you want to sell. It also means:</p><p>In a transactional sale the customer knows the answer without help from a salesperson (or cannot see why they should choose you), or is prepared to stay with what they have. Customer decision criteria are price and convenience and customers resent time spent with (new) salespeople, mainly because the salesperson adds little or nothing to what the customer already has and just wastes time.</p><p>In a consultative or value-based sale, by contrast, the customer doesn't know the answer already. The salesperson must take the role of an advisor, not just a 'product promoter'. Customers demand expertise, advice and customisation during the sales process. Often customers insist on multiple meetings with salespeople and others to develop advantages that you can bring and reduce the perceived risk of changing. In this way the salesperson often adds more value than the product or service alone.</p>This very practical workshop will help you use proven strategies and tactics to build, manage and successfully close sustainable business opportunities using a consultative approach and a value-based (not price-led) proposition. This includes:<ul><li>Increased impact of your new sales conversations, presentations and proposals - leading to faster decisions and increased conversion</li><li>Greater confidence, consistency and professionalism throughout the business development process</li><li>Enhanced sales questioning skills and techniques, leading to better, faster and more accurate development of customer needs, problems, value and expectations</li><li>Improve your people, communication, influence and persuasion skills when approaching, consulting or presenting your services and solutions</li><li>How to build value at all points in the customer's buying process through your knowledge, skills and structured approach</li><li>Proven ways to gain additional business and referrals from existing customers and contacts, through direct approach and lead generation</li><li>Being better able differentiate your firm, your solutions, track-record and expertise clearly and accurately with tailored value statements for each stage and for each opportunity</li><li>Overcome and avoid price-based objections, buying criteria and negotiation</li></ul><section>

An online  gathering at the Soul Shed to journey into your inner world through forest story.
The clearing in the centre of the forest is a magical place of transformation and one where new contact can be made with the creatures and characters of our inner world.
If you are new to intuitive creativity, and The Soul Shed approach to exploring, know that you need no experience to participate in these sessions apart from in being you! Bring your curiosity and imagination, and the forest clearing will contain what you need, as a map and a mirror to learn about yourself in a gentle non-intrusive way.
Supported by the trees of the forest,  we will find this space within and take our time here, meeting with achetypal characters like Red Riding Hood, Woodcutter, Wolf, Green man and woman, Rapunzel,  Prince and Sleeping Beauty, discerning which of these beings wants to share their wisdom with each of us. 
This is an opportunity to go into the world of forest story and to explore your intuitive creativity as a wisdom stream you can connect with through your embodied presence!

Will you do it at lunch time? in the evening? How realistic is this? &nbsp;Is there a place in your house where you could sit to pray? Will&nbsp;those you share space with will be able to respect your commitment to the retreat?</p><p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;"><br fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;"></p><p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">This won&#39;t be for everyone, but for those who are drawn to take part in this prayer experience, I have no doubt that it will be a positive and enriching time.
