Course  Overview:

This course focuses on effective negotiation techniques to be successful in different situations and with people holding different levels of power. The course evaluates how negotiations impact the organizations and ourselves. Reflect on the different outcomes that can be achieved through negotiation and understand which outcomes are acceptable for the intended objectives. Finally participants reflect on the influencing process and how one can achieve things without having the authority or power. 

Each module has been carefully selected based on the intake and skills gaps of the specific audience. After a brief introduction, participants are given 1 to 2 minutes to introduce themselves, practicing their presentation and communication skills (if the intake has included the requested video, this introduction will only be 1 minute). 

Learning Objectives:

At the end of this course, you will be able to:
Define negotiation and influencing stages and how to do so effectively. 
Understand different aspects of negotiating: persuasion, manipulation, assertiveness, rationalization, and active listening. 
Understand individuals and organizations (attitude, behavior and culture). What each party expects, dealing with emotions, and resistance. 
Power play: who is in control and how to change it – tactics and coordination of power. The importance of knowledge.
Understand communication strategies, effectiveness in communicating, verbal and nonverbal 
Orchestrating a plan: positioning, anticipating problems, managing conflicts, and  approaching others for help. 
Understand interpersonal skills: importance of self-awareness, adapting expectations, and resilience. 
Understand results: risk assessment, damage control, keeping good relationships, win-win outcomes. 
Understand how to use BAPNA, ZOPA, negotiation canvas and other tools and strategies.

All the equipment and materials you will need are included in the price, unless stated otherwise, plus light refreshments (a selection of Shibui teas, coffee, hot chocolate, and sweet or savoury snacks). On full day workshops you are welcome to bring your own lunch to eat inside or out; or there are a wide range of independent sit-in or takeaway delis, cafés, and restaurants, plus supermarkets, within a 5-10 minute walk.
PLEASE NOTE: Our workshop space is on the first-floor of a Georgian mews building and unfortunately we do not have lift access. The workshop space is in our home which is not nut free. Please let us know of any skin or food allergies before booking.
Private workshop bookings
Most of our workshops are also available to book for small private get-togethers; themed wedding and birthday celebrations; corporate team building and well-being purposes; and as in-store retail events.

ECG equipment - set-up and calibration
Includes professionalism, consent, IPC
and legal requirement
Patient preparation
How to correctly apply electrodes to limbs and chest

GPT010:
Understand the acceptable variations within the normal ECG of healthy adults.
Recognise the expected patterns of an ECG from a healthy child from birth onwards and identify abnormalities.
Interpret abnormal ECG patterns in adults.
Diagnose arrhythmias as an underlying cause of palpitations and syncope. Exploring sinus rhythm, extrasystoles, paroxysmal tachycardia and the importance of a physical examination.
Identifying syncopal episodes attributable to cardiovascular disease as opposed to arrhythmias.
Recognise ECG markers for tachycardias, bradycardias, pre-excitation syndromes, bi-fascicular block, and first-degree block with bundle branch block.
Differentiate between supraventricular and ventricular extrasystoles and be able to diagnose broad complex tachycardias, ventricular flutter and fibrillation, sick sinus syndrome, and Stokes-Adams attacks.
Recognise and identify symptoms associated with the causes of acute or chronic chest pain in patients who present with myocardial infarction (heart attack), pulmonary embolism, significant central pulmonary embolism, pericarditis, aortic dissection, oesophageal rupture, spinal disorders, vertebral collapse, posterior infarction, and angina.
Recognise symptoms indicative of conditions such as pulmonary oedema, chest diseases, and pulmonary congestion.





After the course
GPT009:
Safely and competently set up an ECG machine
Introduce patients to the ECG test, adhering to compliancy requirements before and after testing
Perform an ECG test to national guidelines
Understand basic traces and their correlation to cardiac issues
Recognise normal and erroneous recordings
Recognise recordings that require urgent medical follow-up
Complete the recording and label (or record digital copies) as per guidelines
GPT010:
Appreciate normal and abnormal ECG variations in the context of varying pathologies.
Be able to determine whether an arrhythmia has an underlying cause that requires medical intervention.
Interpret ECGs as a function of the patient's ongoing cardiac management.
Understand and apply the Burce Protocol exercise test in relevant clinical situations.
Know how to clinically respond to a patient with chest pain including further investigations required, pain relief, history and examination and echocardiogram.
Understand and apply the fundamental principles of arrhythmia management.
Understand the primary causes of heart disease and the diagnostic process.
Appreciate the importance of the ECG as a diagnostic tool alongside the patient’s history and clinical presentation and recognising its limitations.
