We often find that whilst training is useful and targeted for staff to engage

in best practice and the most up to date information, when the new

learning is transferred and integrated back into the workplace, it gradually

becomes something that sits on the ‘shelf’.

Research suggests that only 10-13% of new learning in training is

transferred back into the workplace.

At Amovita, we have a training program that ensures you and your staff

integrate the new learning from our training for the longer term where it

can really make a difference to the workplace.

We understand learning theory and the important elements of maximising

the transfer of learning back into the workplace.

‘How to Become a Lion Tamer’ - 1 Day Presentation

Being able to communicate confidently and effectively is an essential skill in

today’s competitive workplace. This is especially true for those who work in

the ‘front line’ of public services, dealing with clients, families and carers or

in the corporate sector working with and responding to resistant

customers.

These roles often involve working under a pressure, whilst at times having

to negotiate conflicting values, opinions and beliefs of others.

This training presentation provides valuable skills and knowledge for

participants to communicate with influence that will allow the creation of

positive and productive working relationships, skills to diffuse hostile

situations, respond appropriately to confrontations and successfully resolve

misunderstandings.

It is an experiential learning journey that will enable participants to reflect

and consider the impact that certain communication styles and behavioural

approaches can have on relationships with others. The course works

through a five-tiered model that will develop an understanding and

appreciation of the different levels and types of assertiveness. Participants

will be provided with various opportunities for reflection and analyse

different examples of when, where, how and why staff find themselves in

challenging situations.

Participants will then be provided with the opportunity to practice the

techniques they have learned, building their confidence and emphasising

the use of specific strategies for promoting positive and productive

interactions.

Learning Outcomes

Identify behavioural styles and how they can impact on working

relationships

Identify their own natural style of assertiveness and apply

techniques in a range of work situations to promote positive

relationships

Identify appropriate communication strategies and utilise specific

techniques in work situations that require assertiveness

Manage conflict and challenge others with empathy and sensitivity.

Negotiate to achieve mutually beneficial outcomes

Utilise effective ways of advocating on behalf of others.

Influence others using an intentional language framework

Motivate others through effective persuasion

‘Getting called into the Front Line’ - 1 Day Presentation

It can be difficult to know what to do or say when approached by someone

who is anxious or in distress. Without specialist knowledge, training and

experience having to step into an accidental counsellor role can be difficult

and overwhelming.

There may be times where you will be first point of contact for someone in

crisis, and whether it is a major emergency or some sort of emotional

distress, it’s important to know how to respond empathically and

appropriately.

Even without a formal qualification in counselling it’s important to have a

tool kit and skills, techniques and questioning framework in which to

provide the necessary support to others when they are anxious, angry,

experiencing grief or a challenging time in their lives.

One of the main aims of the presentation is to provide participants with a

framework with which to respond when having to step into an accidental

counsellor role in the workplace.

The workshop provides participants with all the necessary skills and tools to

be able to respond appropriately, empathetically and effectively to others

in crisis including team members and clients.

Participants will learn general counselling techniques including different

questioning frameworks for use in different situations, how to de-escalate

a situation and engage in self-care post the situation.

values and beliefs can have when communicating

with others in distress

Know how to utilise a crisis intervention model

Engage empathetically with others using specific counselling and

communication skills

different situations

supervision takes place in their workplace. Guest speakers share their

expertise in the areas of supervision and coaching from a range of

perspectives. Our intake for this retreat is kept to a small number to

maximise outcomes and to build collaboration in the supervisory and

coaching space.

We explore the notion of how Neuroscience underpins masterful outcomes

for performance in supervision, how taking a Blue Ocean strategic

perspective in supervision can set your supervision framework apart from

others. Being in a ‘retreat environment’, we take the opportunity to embed

new learning through a neuroscience approach honing critical skills in

providing and receiving supervision through an observational analysis.

Working with Amovita’s leaders in the industry, participants will have the

opportunity to discuss and explore how to develop and maintain critical

supervision outcomes in the workplace, linking a high performance mindset

to the supervisory space. Come and join us in a retreat environment, in a

relaxed atmosphere, fantastic food with other high level
