NESA Webinar
Engaging the Reluctant Participant and How To Get Them Moving
Thursday 23 May 2019
2pm AEST (1:30pm in SA & NT and 12 noon in WA)
Target Group
Team leaders and front line staff
Summary
Systematically addressing the reasons that job seekers put forward for not being gainfully employed goes hand in hand with being an Employment Consultant. But what do we do when the problem is much more complex? We need to become more curious about our participants. What are their barriers? How are these barriers affecting the job seeker’s life? How have they tried to address the barriers in the past? To be effective, we must explore, investigate, understand… engage with our participants.
Our webinar is aimed at front line staff and site managers who are experiencing this issue and would like to explore some workable options. It will discuss “reengagement” strategies that really work.
WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT
- Identifying & addressing complex barriers
- Understanding the reluctant participant
- Building harmonious and sustainable relationships
- Moving the reluctant participant towards employment (are we thinking outside of the box?)
- Change Plan Action (what is it? how does it work?)
