<h2>Conflict Resolution Skills (Virtual)</h2>
<p>Many organizations have assumed that workplace conflict is always destructive. So, they have often believed that conflict is best dealt with by managers or even via policies and procedures. After all, conflict creates workplace stress and leads to many performance problems, generating very real organizational costs! However, savvy organizations have embraced the fact that when conflict is understood and harnessed, it can be leveraged to add value to teams and even enhance performance. With the right knowledge, skills, training, and practice, conflict can be productive and make organizations better!</p>
<p>In this highly interactive course, learners will discover the connection between individual conflict response and team-empowering conflict resolution skills. Participants will explore conflict's visceral dynamics and the nuanced behaviors we individually engage in to communicate and respond to conflict. Learners will apply techniques for transforming unproductive conflict responses into productive ones. Additionally, learners will use a systematic method that prepares them to objectively dissect real-world conflict, while practicing many strategies for resolving it. They will also develop proactive conflict approach plans, which they can transfer back to their own workplaces.</p><h3>What you will Learn</h3>
<p>At the end of this program, you will be able to:</p>
<ul>
<li>Recognize the organizational costs of conflict</li>
<li>Explain our physical and mental responses to conflict</li>
<li>Communicate proactively and effectively with different types of people during conflict</li>

<h2>Use Cases for Business Analysis: Virtual In-House Training</h2>
 <p>The use case is a method for documenting the interactions between the user of a system and the system itself. Use cases have been in the software development lexicon for over twenty years, ever since it was introduced by Ivar Jacobson in the late 1980s. They were originally intended as aids to software design in object-oriented approaches. However, the method is now used throughout the Solution Development Life Cycle from elicitation through to specifying test cases, and is even applied to software development that is not object oriented.</p>
 <p>This course identifies how business analysts can apply use cases to the processes of defining the problem domain through elicitation, analyzing the problem, defining the solution, and confirming the validity and usability of the solution.</p><h3>What you will Learn</h3>
 <p>You'll learn how to:</p>
 <ul>
 <li>Apply the use case method to define the problem domain and discover the conditions that need improvement in a business process</li>
 <li>Employ use cases in the analysis of requirements and information to create a solution to the business problem</li>
 <li>Translate use cases into requirements</li>

Louise is especially interested in novels that represent working-class people or children going through difficult circumstances (think <em fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Shuggie Bain</em> by Douglas Stuart, <em fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">My Name is Leon</em> by Kit de Waal or <em fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Boys Don&rsquo;t Cry</em> by F&Iacute;ona Scarlett).</p><p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;"><strong fr-original-style="" style="font-weight: 700; box-sizing: border-box;">Irish literary and book club fiction</strong>. Think Claire Keegan, Louise Kennedy or Anne Griffin.</p><p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">In <strong fr-original-style="" style="font-weight: 700; box-sizing: border-box;">commercial fiction</strong> she loves novels set during the Second World War, such as <em fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">The Nightingale</em> by Kristin Hannah, <em fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">The Beekeeper of Aleppo</em> by Christi Lefteri or <em fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">The Midwife of Auschwitz</em> by Anna Stuart. Louise recently read and loved <em fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">The Last List of Mabel Beaumont</em> by Laura Pearson and would love to see anything in the same &lsquo;older person going on a journey&rsquo; category, a more recent <em fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry</em>.</p><p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">Louise had a lot of fun publishing a &lsquo;pet fiction&rsquo; novel as an editor (<em fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Molly and the Cat&nbsp;Caf&eacute;</em>) and would love to find an author who can write an <em fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Alfie the Doorstep Cat/Dog</em>.</p><p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">She has a soft spot for novels featuring <strong fr-original-style="" style="font-weight: 700; box-sizing: border-box;">time-travel or parallel universes</strong>, a &lsquo;what if&rsquo; that plays around with conventions. At the literary end this would be books like <em fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Life After Life</em> by Kate Atkinson, <em fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">The Shining Girls</em> by Lauren Beukes or <em fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">This is How You Lose the Time War</em> by Amal El-Mohtar and Max Gladstone. At the more commercial end Louise loved <em fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Wrong Place, Wrong Time</em> by Gillian McAllister, <em fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Dark Matter</em> by Blake Crouch and <em fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Oona Out of Order</em> by Martina Montimore. She also enjoys novels set in the real world but featuring a hefty dose of magic or the supernatural. They can be commercial or literary, present-day or historical. Think <em fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Rivers of London</em> by Ben Aaronovitch, <em fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Threadneedle</em> by Cari Thomas, <em fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">A Discovery of Witches</em> by Deborah Harkness or <em fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">The Gifts</em> by Liz Hyder. And also cosy fantasy in the vein of <em fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Legends and Lattes</em> or<em fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">&nbsp;The House in the Cerulean Sea</em>.</p><p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;"><strong fr-original-style="" style="font-weight: 700; box-sizing: border-box;">Cosy or humorous crime</strong>. Recently, Louise absolutely loved <em fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Over My Dead Body</em> by Maz Evans.

LOOKING FOR: ADULT FICTION
Louise Buckley  has worked in publishing for well over a decade. She was inspired to enter the publishing industry after completing an MA in Creative Writing and then spent a hugely enjoyable year working as a bookseller for Waterstones, wishing that she could have a hand in publishing books.
After a year working at Dorling Kindersley, she then spent almost five years working in the commercial fiction division at Pan Macmillan, where she published a mix of commercial bestsellers and award-winning authors.
Most recently, she was an Associate Literary Agent at Zeno Agency Ltd. As an agent she represented a roster of commercial and literary fiction, including Anne Griffin’s When All is Said, which spent five weeks at number one in Ireland and sold into 17 territories.
She is delighted to be working with Hannah at Hannah Sheppard Literary Agency.
Louise is looking for:-
Literary and upmarket fiction that focusses on the underdog, the repressed, the suppressed. Louise is especially interested in novels that represent working-class people or children going through difficult circumstances (think Shuggie Bain by Douglas Stuart, My Name is Leon by Kit de Waal or Boys Don’t Cry by FÍona Scarlett).
Irish literary and book club fiction. Think Claire Keegan, Louise Kennedy or Anne Griffin.
In commercial fiction she loves novels set during the Second World War, such as The Nightingale by Kristin Hannah, The Beekeeper of Aleppo by Christi Lefteri or The Midwife of Auschwitz by Anna Stuart. Louise recently read and loved The Last List of Mabel Beaumont by Laura Pearson and would love to see anything in the same ‘older person going on a journey’ category, a more recent The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry.
Louise had a lot of fun publishing a ‘pet fiction’ novel as an editor (Molly and the Cat Café) and would love to find an author who can write an Alfie the Doorstep Cat/Dog.
She has a soft spot for novels featuring time-travel or parallel universes, a ‘what if’ that plays around with conventions. At the literary end this would be books like Life After Life by Kate Atkinson, The Shining Girls by Lauren Beukes or This is How You Lose the Time War by Amal El-Mohtar and Max Gladstone. At the more commercial end Louise loved Wrong Place, Wrong Time by Gillian McAllister, Dark Matter by Blake Crouch and Oona Out of Order by Martina Montimore. She also enjoys novels set in the real world but featuring a hefty dose of magic or the supernatural. They can be commercial or literary, present-day or historical. Think Rivers of London by Ben Aaronovitch, Threadneedle by Cari Thomas, A Discovery of Witches by Deborah Harkness or The Gifts by Liz Hyder. And also cosy fantasy in the vein of Legends and Lattes or The House in the Cerulean Sea.
Cosy or humorous crime. Recently, Louise absolutely loved Over My Dead Body by Maz Evans. When she was an editor Louise published the hit Luckiest Girl Alive by Jessica Knoll and would love to represent incisive, intelligent suspense written by authors such as Jessica Knoll and Gillian Flynn, or something a little more subversive and blackly comic like My Sister, the Serial Killer by Oyinkan Braithwaite.
More generally, Louise would also love to see novels with a disabled protagonist or someone (like myself) who is living with an invisible disability. As an ex-primary school teacher, she also warmly welcomes submissions from teachers, especially if the submission falls into one of the other categories she has listed. Following-on from this, she enjoys reading stories that follow a ‘beating the system’ narrative.
Louise is NOT looking for:
-romance
-romantasy
-epic, traditional fantasy
-space opera
-straightforward women’s fiction
-children’s fiction of any kind
-non-fiction
Louise would like you to submit a covering letter, 1 page synopsis and the first three chapters or 5,000 words of your manuscript in a single word document.

(In addition to the paid sessions, Louise is kindly offering one free session for low income/under-represented writers. Please email agent121@iaminprint.co.uk to apply, outlining your case for this option which is offered at the discretion of I Am In Print). 
By booking you understand you need to conduct an internet connection test with I Am In Print prior to the event. You also agree to email your material in one document to reach I Am In Print by the stated submission deadline and note that I Am In Print take no responsibility for the advice received during your agent meeting.
The submission deadline is: Friday 27 September 2024
