Building Resilient Teams, Families and Organisations
Wednesday 30 October 2024
9am - 10.30am
90 minute Online Workshop
Resilience is the capacity to recover quickly from difficulties and adapt well to adversity, stress, or change. It involves a combination of mental, emotional, and behavioral skills that allow individuals to cope with challenges and bounce back stronger.
Its about moving forward from periods of change and adversity, stress and trauma, loss and disappointment, and often more importantly - the strain and intensity of just doing the “day-to-day” in today’s world.”
When we look around, we recognize that many of the same rules and principles that apply to individuals – also apply to families, teams, partnerships, businesses and organisations. Whether thinking in terms of individuals, families, or groups, our capacity for resilience is directly related to our capacity for flexibility, adaptability, productivity and longevity.
Overall, resilience is about thriving despite adversity and using challenges as stepping stones to greater strength and capability. It’s a dynamic quality that can be developed and strengthened over time through experience and intentional practices.
Content
The 90-minute online workshop will cover:
1. An Introduction to Systems Theory – Some realistic and useable ideas about how groups work together best. Adopting effective group strategies and a positive group identity are essential to developing resilience and a sense of satisfaction – which all contribute to better performance – and well-being – whatever the group.
2. Persuasive Communication ABC’s – We look at the essential basics of using clear, compassionate, focused, and consistent communication skills. These are the keys to developing cooperation, trust, teamwork and sense of commitment and belonging.
3. Team Culture, Group Dynamics and Making Change Work - Taking effective action: All plans work well on paper, but the actual process of coming to a decision and making strategies and changes work – and last – is a much a science as it is an art.
Who Should Attend
This workshop can be for social workers, case workers, navigators, kaimahi and clinicians working with families. But this really is open to anyone who would find it useful.
