Strategic Thinking (In-Person)

<h2>Leading People through Change (In-Person)</h2>
<p>Research shows that 70% of change initiatives fail in large organizations. The largest factor contributing to this failure rate is leadership - the inability to plan and lead people through change.</p>
<p>In many change situations, tremendous focus is put on strategy, processes, and systems, while the issue of changing people's behavior is assumed it will 'just happen'. In this interactive course, you will learn why the people side of change is crucial.</p>
<p>We will begin by understanding why and how people resist change, and how important it is to become strong and effective change champions. Next, we will focus on critical change management practices - creating our vision of the future state, planning for acceptance in our change audience and stakeholders, mitigating threats, and capitalizing on opportunities. We will use metrics to plan, show progress, and confirm success. Lastly, we will focus on the need to reinforce and sustain change, and to prevent relapse to old ways and methods.</p><h3>What you will Learn</h3>
<p>At the end of this program, you will be able to:</p>
<ul>
<li>Realize the nature of change and describe how resistance manifests in people</li>
<li>Compare prevalent change models and categorize their similarities</li>
<li>Identify and rate the skills, traits, and behaviors of effective change champions</li>
<li>Envision the future state and assess stakeholders</li>
<li>Plan for change communication, training, and risks</li>
<li>Evaluate change effectiveness using feedback and metrics</li>
<li>Develop reinforcement practices for benefits and communication</li>

<h2>Decision Making and Problem Solving (In-Person)</h2>
<p>We may live in an era of fast technology and increasing reliance upon automation, but our human abilities to think critically, make careful decisions, and solve nuanced problems are more important than ever. Our personal lives depend on those things, and so do the lives of our organizations.</p>
<p>Since business is now conducted at remarkable speeds, we put our organizations at great risk daily when we have weak competencies with decision-making and problem-solving. Decisions and solutions that are executed impulsively and without structured approaches can create more problems or make existing ones worse! This course aims to help participants improve their skills so they can execute well and add value to the workplace.</p>
<p>Learners will experience multiple decision-making and problem-solving models, tools, and techniques meant for the real world. They will learn how to align their growing toolboxes with the right situational contexts so that they can transfer that skill to the workplace.

<p>Become skillful at dealing with unworkable differences - situations where there appears to be no acceptable compromise or acceptable solution.

<h2>Work Breakdown Structures: In-House Training</h2>
 <p>It's amazing how often project managers begin the project planning process by making an outlined list of every task they believe will be required to complete a project and then proclaim they have created the work breakdown structure (WBS) for the project. The result is a list of hundreds, or even thousands of tasks, many of them having durations of a few days or a few hours.</p>
 <p>Essentially, what they have done is create a 'to do' list, which they then use as a 'checklist' to measure progress. This approach leads to, and even encourages, micromanagement of the resources working on the project without consideration of more critical aspects of project management such as: requirements management, risk management, procurement management, estimating, scheduling, executing, and controlling. Further, it makes it impossible to see the big picture, at levels of detail, in keeping with the needs of sponsors, clients, project and functional managers, team leaders, and project performers.</p>
 <p>Join us for this exciting program and learn how to use the WBS to make better-informed business decisions.</p><h3>What You Will Learn</h3>

EITHER -
CLASSROOM OPTION - Attend one of our scheduled classroom locations, completing your Introduction to Phlebotomy Course over 2 days. You will also complete your Advanced Training at the end of the first day and your Competency Training at the end of the second day.

Our Introduction to Phlebotomy and Advanced Phlebotomy Training Kits are supplied at no charge when booking our virtual classroom training option.
If you would like to add one or both of these kits to your classroom training option then these are available to add at time of booking. Our comprehensive training kits each mirror the same equipment and supplies used in the classroom and both include detailed video tutorials, allowing you to continue to practice and "hone" your skills after you have completed your practical training.

VIRTUAL CLASSROOM OPTION- Complete your theory training online at home or work, then join us for a one day Zoom session to complete your Introduction to Phlebotomy virtual classroom training, followed by your Advanced Training in the evening of the same day. You have the option to add a classroom-based competency session, awarding a CPD Accredited Geopace Certificate of Competency, at time of booking.

Our Virtual Classroom option includes two very comprehensive training kits - one for your introductory course and one for your advanced course.

What this course offers you
Individual Support - During and after your course
Practical Experience - Step by step training is given so that you can gain valuable experience using Reiki
Energy Perception – You will be taught to develop skills of energy perception and learn how to interpret the Reiki by what you sense and feel
Personal Growth - You will discover for yourself the increased level of Reiki healing and be able to use its methods of healing on others and have paying clients if you wish
Why a Level 2 Course? Reiki at Level 2 is the level of training which is needed to practise Reiki healing professionally and have paying clients. Often reflexologists, aromatherapists and other complementary therapists add reiki healing to their range of healing skills that they offer their clients. 
However it is not just for those who have clients it is also a powerful self-development technique for your own personal healing experience and to share with family/friends and give them the benefit of well-being.
A certificate at Reiki Level One is needed for you to enrol on this course and I am happy to accept students who have trained elsewhere with another Reiki Master.
The Reiki Two course is taught live on line using Zoom.
