Summary
Post Placement Support (PPS) is a great way of gathering intelligence that can drive a strong plan to ensure job seekers maximise their sustainable employment opportunity. This task should not be a “tick a box” exercise, it is a critical component to ensure we are identifying any red flags that exist within early stages of employment and act upon them accordingly. If performed correctly, PPS will be seen as a genuine value add to your employers customer service experience and will provide a support mechanism for the new employee as they enter into a new environment.

NESA Workshop
Motivating Resistant Clients
NESA Melbourne office
Friday 26 July 2019
Tea & Coffee at 9am, for a 9:30am sharp commencement. Finishes around 4:30pm
Target Group
All staff
Summary
Resistant clients require a different level of investment to get them motivated and change their mindsets. Specifically designed for the employment services sector, this workshop takes a close look at why clients may be resistant, reluctant or suspicious.
This one-day workshop provides employment consultants and practitioners with the skills to positively engage mandated clients and develop workable relationships. It will enable practitioners to confidently deliver effective services and achieve outstanding and sustainable results. Focusing on client accountability, the skills learnt will enable consultants to encourage clients to take personal responsibility whilst creating motivation. Instead of struggling when confronted by resistant clients, practitioners can adopt a more constructive method to achieving outcomes.
Motivational Interviewing (MI) is a communication method intended to move a person toward change, focusing on exploring and resolving ambivalence as a key to eliciting that change. MI facilitates and engages the client’s own personal motivations as a means to change their behaviour. The practitioner seeks to elicit “change talk” (participant-initiated discussion about the idea of changing), utilising the Stages of Change Model. A client’s readiness for change may be assessed and Motivational Interviewing can be provided to suit the client’s stage of change.
This workshop allows participants to:
- Identify resistant clients
- Understand the reasons for reluctance, including complex barriers
- Learn the importance of deliberate and collaborative conversations about change using the Stages of Change model.
- Learn Motivational Interviewing techniques for employment services
- Learn effective ways to resolve discrepancy and ambivalence
- Acquire skills in effective goal setting and change measurement
- Learn skills to apply a solution-focused problem solving approach
