Managing Challenging and Aggressive Behaviour

ONLINE COACHING PROGRAM | Two hour session

Tuesday 15 August 2023

2.00pm to 4.00pm AEST

PLATFORM: GO TO WEBINAR

TARGET GROUP

All sector staff

SUMMARY

When working with people from different walks of life on a daily basis, and often requesting them to undertake activities they may not be enthusiastic about, some level of challenging behaviour is inevitable. This is a two session on line coaching program designed to build skills in dealing effectively with challenging behaviour from an employment service industry perspective.
The coaching program aims to provide you with all the skills to help you understand and deal with the challenges of a modern-day client-centred employment service. Participants will acquire knowledge on how to enhance their communication techniques and to avoid conflict in the workplace. The model of delivery for this coaching program requires ‘learning by doing’, an active learning approach, whereby participants are expected to contribute to the discussion of techniques and to consider alternative and innovative approaches.

WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT

First hour: Self-management, resilience, and communication & listening skills

• Understand the principles of how to self-manage and remain resilient in confronting situations.
• How to maintain safe limits and set client expectations.
• Understand how good communication can influence people.
• Learn how to develop effective listening skills and assist clients to develop new skills in communication

Second hour: Barriers and limiting client behaviour, responding effectively, and maintaining personal and others safety

• Understand the barriers to effective communication and how to maintain limits on client behaviour
• How to recognise and deal with clients effectively when you feel like you are being provoked.
• Have opportunities through case examples to link theory to practice and application for a safe environment.
