Teaching with Emotional Intelligence
Maryborough
May 12; Sunshine Coast Uni May 13; Brisbane June 4
Nowhere is EI more critical than in classrooms. Like leaders
everywhere, teachers knowingly or unknowingly, imprint emotional patterns
and model crucial lessons in emotional self-management. This practical
1-day clinic can enhance emotional self-awareness, show how to raise
learning levels by targeting positive feelings, develop learning
strategies that are emotionally engaging and look at practical ways to
integrate EI skill-building strategies into classroom teaching. Supported
by a comprehensive EI at School Toolkit rich in EI learning activities for
teachers and students you can use freely back in the classroom. [Course Outline] [See
Why EI is every teacher’s business]
Dealing with Difficult Discussions
Hervey Bay May 8-9; Brisbane June 5-6; Sunshine Coast Uni July
29-30
Confronting or contentious conversations are something every leader could
learn to handle better. This 2-day practical clinic equips you with
a robust set of easy-to-use tools to navigate your way through those
troublesome moments more confidently and practise a more methodical,
controlled and step-by-step approach to convert destructive confrontation
into constructive conversations. [Course outline]… [Read more on Difficult Discussions]
Building Better Teams
Sunshine Coast Uni May 19-20; Brisbane Aug 5-6
Most schools and workplaces say they work in teams, fewer know how to make
teams work well. Getting teams to work in well together is a major mission
for leaders, no matter what level they’re at. This 2-day
toolkit explores the art of team-building. Whether you’re
fine-tuning an existing team or starting one from scratch, it covers key
design dimensions and tools to form teams, facilitate them to work
collaboratively, get commitment to common goals, create cohesion and
rethink how your team works together. [Course outline] [About
Working Better Together]
Revitalising School Culture
Brisbane (2-day)
May 22-23; Sunshine Coast Uni (1-day)
June 2
There may be nothing more important in the work of school leaders than
shaping a culture that supports school renewal. It’s critical to the
quality of student-teacher interaction, classroom behaviour, learning
climate and the experience of being at-school. School renewal embodies
changes to current mental models and tacit assumptions that govern
teaching behaviour, practices and perspectives that can block school
change. Many renewal efforts start with a realisation that the current
school culture needs an overhaul. This unique clinic unpacks the
components that make up culture and equips you with practical tools to
handle culture change better. [Course Outline] [Read more on
Changing Culture)
Leading Teams through Change
Sunshine Coast Uni June 3; Brisbane Aug 1
Whether it's new structures, members, workroles or procedures, teams
constantly change. While it's inevitable, team-change can distract from
work focus and upset good teamwork. A common challenge all leaders face is
how to get teams to accept and make changes with minimum fuss and
disruption to work. This 1-day clinic gives a good grounding in practical
actions to effectively initiate and lead team change – to get more buy-in
and committed support to make your attempts at team change more
trouble-free – however big or small. [Course Outline] [Read about
Leading Change]
Positive Performance Conversations
Brisbane May 5; Sunshine Coast Uni June 11; Maryborough June 10
Tackling poor performance as most leaders will tell you, is one of the
most widely feared species of difficult discussions. This
practice-oriented 2 or 1-day program walks you through a carefully
plotted, step-by-step tour of 5 essential Footings and Frameworks to take
a solution-focused approach to making tough performance conversations and
the feedback you have to give more ‘sayable’ and ‘hearable’ – particularly
difficult ones. [Course Outline] [see our
E-Zine Issue #13 for highlights]
