Pre-course activity: To gain the maximum benefit from the course, you will be sent a pre-course questionnaire to complete which asks you to consider current expectations. This will help you set the context of the course and the information you provide will be used on the day as part of the course activities.
Phil McKew: I find the key to this event is building confidence, understanding why differences arise, seeing situations from several perspectives (including the fresh eyes of your fellow delegates) and working constructively to get them resolved.
Delegates bring a range of, often conflict based, issues from mediating in disputes between team members, differences of opinion over performance and feedback, and how to raise tough subjects or improve difficult working relationships.
You choose how much to open up on your issues on a one-to-one or small group basis but my experience is that people find it a relief to have others listen closely and share challenges that other people in the room may also be facing.
The Faculty: Along with Bev Holloway and Ian Sanders, Phil McKew is part of the dedicated faculty team who will deliver this course.
