Today Remind you of some important ideas Some strategies What to do BEFORE you start… What to do when it goes ‘pear-
shaped’ Qualities young people value in us Look at connections with strengths
based approaches, to motivation and to resilience

Engagement
Catching a person’s attention in a MEANINGFUL way
Forming connections with: What How Who
![Page 4: E ngaging the disengaged A presentation by Peter Slattery to the ICAN conference Adelaide 16 th August 2006](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062511/551c0820550346a34f8b4f8d/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Before we even start, ask:
What are we here for? Where are we? Who is involved? How much time do we have? What am I trying to do with this
topic, in this place, with this time, with this group?
![Page 5: E ngaging the disengaged A presentation by Peter Slattery to the ICAN conference Adelaide 16 th August 2006](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062511/551c0820550346a34f8b4f8d/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Disengaged This person has not flourished in
the mainstream system This person has probably not
enjoyed the mainstream system If we do the same as what they
have experienced before, we will get the same result
So we must do something different
![Page 6: E ngaging the disengaged A presentation by Peter Slattery to the ICAN conference Adelaide 16 th August 2006](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062511/551c0820550346a34f8b4f8d/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Engagement means creating:
A relationship… A conversation… A process… So we can do what we are here for
![Page 7: E ngaging the disengaged A presentation by Peter Slattery to the ICAN conference Adelaide 16 th August 2006](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062511/551c0820550346a34f8b4f8d/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
So this means asking:
What ‘feel’, what process do we need so we can achieve this?
![Page 8: E ngaging the disengaged A presentation by Peter Slattery to the ICAN conference Adelaide 16 th August 2006](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062511/551c0820550346a34f8b4f8d/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
What affects this process?
The space You The individual or group The topic The methods you use Each person’s ‘state of mind’ on
the day
![Page 9: E ngaging the disengaged A presentation by Peter Slattery to the ICAN conference Adelaide 16 th August 2006](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062511/551c0820550346a34f8b4f8d/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
The space
How does it ‘feel’? What does it invite? What ‘feel’ do we need? How can we create this?

You, me, us
You like what? You don’t like? Really care about…? Tend to get angry when…? Tend to get excited/enthusiastic
about…? What brings out the best in you?

Styles
Visual, aural, tactile… As true as these are, there are
other equally important aspects

The topic
Important does not = interesting The less interesting a topic is the
more interesting the process needs to be
Again: what do I want this person/s to take away from this moment?
![Page 26: E ngaging the disengaged A presentation by Peter Slattery to the ICAN conference Adelaide 16 th August 2006](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062511/551c0820550346a34f8b4f8d/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
A person’s state of mind
What do we need to know about what has happened for this young person today?
Their overall health? Their emotional state?
![Page 27: E ngaging the disengaged A presentation by Peter Slattery to the ICAN conference Adelaide 16 th August 2006](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062511/551c0820550346a34f8b4f8d/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)

Along the way… Notice what we are noticing Develop good eyes Language Rather than say what we don’t want,
say what we do want, say what we are aiming for
Be truthful And, judiciously do use potentially
disturbing truths
![Page 33: E ngaging the disengaged A presentation by Peter Slattery to the ICAN conference Adelaide 16 th August 2006](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062511/551c0820550346a34f8b4f8d/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Before we start, ask…
How will I know if you get: Bored? Hurt? Confused? Frustrated? Sad? Angry?
![Page 34: E ngaging the disengaged A presentation by Peter Slattery to the ICAN conference Adelaide 16 th August 2006](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062511/551c0820550346a34f8b4f8d/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
![Page 35: E ngaging the disengaged A presentation by Peter Slattery to the ICAN conference Adelaide 16 th August 2006](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062511/551c0820550346a34f8b4f8d/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
![Page 36: E ngaging the disengaged A presentation by Peter Slattery to the ICAN conference Adelaide 16 th August 2006](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062511/551c0820550346a34f8b4f8d/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
What do you want me to do? What do you want others to
do? And what can you yourself do
at those times?
![Page 37: E ngaging the disengaged A presentation by Peter Slattery to the ICAN conference Adelaide 16 th August 2006](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062511/551c0820550346a34f8b4f8d/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
And…
How do we make sure we are having fun…
How do we make sure it is interesting?
Challenging? What is my job? What is your’s?
![Page 38: E ngaging the disengaged A presentation by Peter Slattery to the ICAN conference Adelaide 16 th August 2006](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062511/551c0820550346a34f8b4f8d/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
When something goes wrong Stop and breath Decide what you want to have happen Ask yourself how you can get this to
happen Actions do have consequences A useful response includes:
Being supportive. Let’s find a solution Working out what to do for next time
Again, say what you want, and what needs to happen for this to come about
![Page 39: E ngaging the disengaged A presentation by Peter Slattery to the ICAN conference Adelaide 16 th August 2006](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062511/551c0820550346a34f8b4f8d/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
What do young people value in ‘useful adults’?
‘Someone who is fun’ ‘Someone who helps me learn’ ‘Someone who doesn’t let me
muck up’
![Page 40: E ngaging the disengaged A presentation by Peter Slattery to the ICAN conference Adelaide 16 th August 2006](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062511/551c0820550346a34f8b4f8d/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
The importance of relationship
It is the strength and quality of the relationship between 2 people that is the single most decisive factor in bringing about growth…change
![Page 41: E ngaging the disengaged A presentation by Peter Slattery to the ICAN conference Adelaide 16 th August 2006](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062511/551c0820550346a34f8b4f8d/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
A relationship means we can:
Find out what interests a person, or concerns them, or excites them
Find out about their talents, what holds them back; their fears, hopes and dreams
And together, we can work on these things
![Page 42: E ngaging the disengaged A presentation by Peter Slattery to the ICAN conference Adelaide 16 th August 2006](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062511/551c0820550346a34f8b4f8d/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
