We’ve still got a couple of training courses fully funded for food & drink businesses.

Early Resolution – building relationships

On Tuesday 3rd December 2024 from 9.30am to 4pm at The Guild, 5 Abbey Street, Carlisle, CA3 8TX we’re running a one day programme which is focused on understanding self and others, using a number of models and practical examples to improve self awareness, empathy and actions to support early resolution conversations and actions. Building confidence to enable clarity of message delivered with compassion.

We explore transactional analysis, trauma informed and other models to understand our behaviours and that of others, with opportunities to build stronger connections.

We trial the use of a coaching approach to solution focused conversations and actions.

We dive deep into techniques to improve own awareness and ability to move forward with early resolution techniques.
