NESA Webinar
Engaging the Reluctant Participant and How To Get Them Moving
Friday 11 September 2020
11.00 am AEST (10.30 am SA & NT and 9.00 am in WA)
Target Group
Frontline staff & Site Managers
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 re-engagement strategies that really work.
WHAT YOU will hear about
- 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?)

Reset your Mindset - Mindfulness
Friday 18 September 2020
2:00pm AEST (1:30pm in SA & NT and 12 noon in WA)
Target Group
All staff
Summary
Mindfulness is the practice of paying attention in the present moment and doing it with non-judgment. Discover Mindfulness strategies that will help you be more effective in your life and at work. Learn about how you can introduce these techniques with your clients and colleagues.
Regulating the mind is like driving a car and constantly having to shift gears to ever-changing traffic conditions. Mindfulness teaches you to be aware of what mental gear you are in and gives you the skills to disengage and engage when you choose. The practice of mindfulness sharpens your focus so you can do something about your mind being constantly distracted and mentally hijacked. (Marianne Vicelich, Author & Entrepreneur)
WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT
- What are the benefits of mindfulness practices
- Experience a 5-minute guided mindfulness session
- Simple and effective techniques that will help you more productive at work (and in life)
Expected outcomes
- Manage negative self-talk and irrational thinking
- Become more responsive instead of reactive
- Increase resilience
- Become less preoccupied with concerns
