Communication is the essence of Leadership. This programme is the premiere of our leadership courses focusing on creating a culture of positive interaction, clear and respectful exchanges, all the while keeping high-performance productivity, ownership, and innovation in the forefront. Before the start of the learning session, delegates complete the TruTalent™ Learning & Productivity (TTL & P), a 20-minute online survey of an individual’s productivity preferences and learning styles. The assessment identifies the individual’s work and learning preferences for 4 styles and 12 environmental and mindset preferences. These elements affect, positively or negatively, how each individual achieves and performs in work-based learning environments. They also affect the way in which individuals concentrate, make decisions, solve problems, process information, approach and complete tasks, retain new and complex information, develop new skills, and interact with others. DELEGATES WILL BE ABLE TO: * Use the TruTalent™ Learning & Productivity assessment to increase productivity and maximise performance; * Set meaningful professional goals and celebrate success for incremental progress toward achievement; * Inspire innovation with teams to increase ownership and accountability; * Empower employees and increase engagement with effective, positive feedback; * Focus on positivity, setting an example for others that we are an organisation of “yes” and solutions; and * Improve spoken and written communications, creating an authoritative image of expertise.   Online Format—Leadership & Management Development is a 4-hour interactive virtual class. REGISTER FOR THIS CLASS AND YOU WILL BE SENT ONLINE LOGIN INSTRUCTIONS PRIOR TO THE CLASS DATE. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- After a two-day seminar, our attendees remained in their seats wanting more from Dr Atkins. His direct, yet challenging approach to presenting topics seemed to mesmerize the participants. Many very lively discussions were part of our workshop’s context. Personally, I am very interested in re-booking this type of experience every year for new leaders to undergo! Michael J. Whitlock, Director of Fay Corey Union & Conferences | SUNY Cortland

Essential CPD to deepen your understanding and develop your skills as a therapist -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- * CPD Certificate: 3 hours * Length: 9.45am – 1.00pm (GMT) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- LIMITED PLACES – Feb date now full Join Ros Townsend [https://www.humangivens.com/person/rosalind-townsend/] live online on Tuesday 8th October 2024 for this important CPD course, designed specifically for mental health professionals interested in the human givens approach.  BONUS – you will get a recording for 2 weeks afterwards to maximise your learning. There are many occasions when a client presents with an excessive emotional response and it is not immediately apparent why this is happening. Perhaps they know that they are ‘over-reacting’ in some way – getting very angry, very fearful – or are experiencing a driven urge to take a particular action – such as eating or having sex. This live online course will help you gain confidence in working safely and ethically with affect bridges to discover if an unhelpful pattern, in the form of a molar memory or sub-threshold trauma is at the root of their experience, allowing you to then determine collaboratively with your client the best ways of addressing that. During the course, there will be plenty of opportunity to ask questions of the tutor, and to engage in exercises and discussions with your peers and colleagues. WHY TAKE THIS COURSE Whether you are a new HG therapist wanting to develop a clear understanding of how to utilise an affect bridge to determine if a molar memory or sub-threshold trauma is present, and to better understand the protocols for working with these, or whether you are an experienced HG practitioner looking to refresh your knowledge and delve deeper into understanding this valuable skillset, this course will help you gain the skills and understanding you need to do so safely and effectively. In an early article regarding molar memories, Joe Griffin termed them ‘an ancient mechanism that is ruining lives’; and the impact of such driven urges on the lives of our clients cannot be underestimated. Molar memories can, on first encountering the theory, seem complicated and unfathomable, but this course will set them – and sub-threshold traumas and the use of the affect bridge to access both – within a clear framework of understanding, linking back to the way in which our brain perceives things (referencing the APET model) and to RIGAAR (how we structure a good therapy session). During the course, numerous case studies will be shared and used as the basis for exercises, and there will be ample opportunity to link the learning to your own experiences in the therapy room. You will gain a clear understanding of: how to follow the treatment protocols for working with molar memories and sub-threshold traumas – adapting these, of course, to each client’s unique model of reality; how to safely and ethically utilise an affect bridge; and how to avoid the danger of creating any false memories. > Ros is a brilliant teacher and presenter. She made the whole course > interesting, engaging and informative as well as very supportive. She was also > very patient with all our questions! > > GEMMA ROGERS, COUNSELLOR/COACH WHAT THE TRAINING COVERS: * How APET and RIGAAR relate to one another * Why an understanding of APET is essential when working with affect bridge * What an affect bridge is * How to use affect bridge safely and ethically within your therapy sessions * How to avoid the risk of creating false memories * Why we must proceed with caution when undertaking affect bridges when working online * The difference (in this context) between ‘positive’ and ‘negative’ * The tell-tale patterns of a sub-threshold trauma and a molar memory being present * A framework to understand the presentations of both sub-threshold traumas and molar memories * How to identify a sub-threshold trauma * An understanding of the treatment protocol for sub-threshold traumas * How to identify a molar memory * An understanding of the treatment protocol for molar memories * Why molar memories sometimes present differently in complex trauma * How to use the understanding of APET and help clients to utilise affect bridge as a positive tool within their lives -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- WHO IS THIS COURSE SUITABLE FOR? * This course is designed for both trainee and fully-qualified HG therapists * It is also suitable for any mental health professionals interested in the human givens approach * It is recommended to all HG practitioners by the Human Givens Institute (HGI) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- TIMINGS 9.45 am – Join Zoom 10.00 am – Course session starts 1.00 pm – Course ends In any online training it’s important to build in regular breaks and ensure that every 20 minutes there is a shift in focus of attention to pull the eyes away from the screen.
