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.

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.

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

SUMMARY

This is ideal for frontline staff who are advising clients on the application process and what they need to do to avoid being rejected by online application / recruitment databases / HR Software.


Have you and your client ever pulled together a great job application, flicked it off, waited, waited and waited, and received no reply? These days many organisations use HR Software to screen out documents based on formatting, lack of key words and other things that you may not be aware of.

The change from human eyes reviewing the initial application to computer software analysing the application has changed the way successful applications are formatted. This webinar will provide an understanding of those changes and how they are impacting on your clients success.

It will make you look at addressing criteria and your resume templates in a whole new light.

WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT

  • An understanding of how online applications are processed by screening software is essential to know so your clients are not screened out on the first pass
  • The importance of key words in your job seeker’s application and matching these to the advertisement or industry that they are applying for
  • Formatting and making things pretty- why this does not work with online applications. Fonts to use, and fonts not to use!
  • Keeping it simple – how irrelevant or complex information on your online resume or application can be hurting your client’s chances of ending up on the ” Yes” list
  • Resume – the do’s and the don’ts, how to address gaps in employment history and how to adapt your resume to specific job applications.
  • The common mistakes that blocks resumes from getting through.

ONLINE | 3 PARTS

Performance Management for New Leaders and Other Beginners coaching program

Wednesday 16, 23, & 30 June 2021

Starts 2.00pm AEST (1.30pm in SA, & NT and 12 noon in WA)

EVENT REGISTRATION

TARGET GROUP

All managers, team leaders and aspiring mangers

SUMMARY

The mere mention of the term ‘performance management’ is enough to send a shiver up the spine of new managers/team leaders and their staff. Many of us immediately think of nerve-wracking performance appraisals and sleepless nights prior to those underperformance discussions. It doesn’t have to be like this.

This 3-part coaching program introduces new team leaders, and those looking for new ideas or to benchmark, to some of the key elements of performance management. While Most providers will have extensive HR assistance and Performance Management Frameworks, this coaching program focuses on an inclusive outcome centred approach to addressing, rewarding or re-aligning staff performance.

WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT

Session 1 – Performance Management Framework? It’s much more than a Performance Agreement! – Wednesday 16 June 2021 at 2.00pm AEST (1.30pm SA & NT and 12 noon WA)

In this session we’ll look at performance management and why it’s so important to the success of an organisation. Good performance management is like preventative medicine: people and organisations can thrive, and costs of solving staffing problems are reduced. What does good performance management look like? What does a good Performance Agreement look like? We’ll talk about it today.

We’ll also commence work on our coaching program project – to develop a Performance Agreement template for frontline staff.

Session 2 – Performance Appraisal and Managing Under Performance – Wednesday 23 June 2021 at 2.00pm AEST (1.30pm SA & NT and 12 noon WA)

A good Performance Management Framework allows people and organisations to flourish. Performance Appraisal is an integral part of the ongoing performance management process. Most of us are good at good news. Sometimes, however, there will be performance issues that we need to address. In a few cases we may need to work through a more formal under performance management process. In today’s session we’ll look at the Performance Appraisal process and managing under performance.

Session 3 – Over to You…. – Wednesday 30 June 2021 at 2.00pm AEST (1.30pm SA & NT and 12 noon WA)

Over the last two weeks participants have been developing a Performance Agreement template for the ‘employment consultant role’. Today is ‘show and tell’ day! What performance indicators did you include in your template? How will you measure performance, and what will your evidence sources be?

SUMMARY

This webinar is aimed at staff who are meeting with job seekers regularly.

Listen to the WA president of the Career Development Association of Australia, Rebecca Herbertson discuss:

  • The importance of always having an agenda and what this might look like
  • Magic Questions – Start of the process
  • The art of Goal setting with job seekers
