Well, we beg to differ. We ask leaders and managers to focus on the individuals in the team so that they get the most out of the whole team.This thinking comes from our belief in Emotional Intelligence (EI). With EI, you can reach for the sky, but without EI, your dreams will die. If team members are unaware (or don&rsquo;t care) that their behaviour negatively impacts others, they will continue to behave like that. When we become self-aware, we have the opportunity to behave differently, which is a really important moment as the team needs to know how to encourage this positive behaviour.High-performing teams (HPTs) are united in their approach. No one is left behind, everyone is vigilant of each other, and mental health check-ins are a daily ritual, not just a task. This level of cohesion is not a coincidence but a result of leaders and managers fostering a culture of care and support within a psychologically safe environment.HPTs operate as a collective unit, with minimal need for a Team Manager or Leader. They share a common concern for each other, driven by the shared objective of achieving team-based goals and outputs. This collective responsibility is a testament to their mutual support and shared accountability.There may well be individual tasks or even KPIs, but they will all work collaboratively to ensure that everyone works well together, that no one slacks or repeats mistakes and that any of them will step in to help with workloads when they can without being asked.Our workshop examines all the ingredients of the HPT, reverse engineers the recipe, and discusses each aspect, leaving everyone with a clear picture of how to create and maintain their own HPT.&nbsp;</section></div><div style="color: rgb(33, 33, 33); box-sizing: border-box;" fr-original-style=" color: rgb(33, 33, 33);"> </div><hr fr-original-style="" style="border-color: var(--border-muted); border-style: solid; clear: both; break-after: page; -webkit-user-select: none; box-sizing: border-box;"><div style="color: rgb(33, 33, 33); box-sizing: border-box;" id="isPasted" fr-original-style=" color: rgb(33, 33, 33);">LENGTH</div><div style="color: rgb(33, 33, 33); box-sizing: border-box;" fr-original-style=" color: rgb(33, 33, 33);">1 Day</div><div style="color: rgb(33, 33, 33); box-sizing: border-box;" fr-original-style=" color: rgb(33, 33, 33);"> </div><div style="color: rgb(33, 33, 33); box-sizing: border-box;" fr-original-style=" color: rgb(33, 33, 33);">NEXT COURSE START</div><div style="color: rgb(33, 33, 33); box-sizing: border-box;" id="isPasted" fr-original-style=" color: rgb(33, 33, 33);">Let&#39;s chat and confirm a date.</div><div style="color: rgb(33, 33, 33); box-sizing: border-box;" fr-original-style=" color: rgb(33, 33, 33);"> </div><div style="color: rgb(33, 33, 33); box-sizing: border-box;" id="isPasted" fr-original-style=" color: rgb(33, 33, 33);">WORKSHOP DELIVERY</div><div style="color: rgb(33, 33, 33); box-sizing: border-box;" fr-original-style=" color: rgb(33, 33, 33);">The best environment for this workshop is face-to-face, but we can facilitate this workshop online.</div><div style="color: rgb(33, 33, 33); box-sizing: border-box;" fr-original-style=" color: rgb(33, 33, 33);"><hr fr-original-style="" style="border-color: var(--border-muted); border-style: solid; clear: both; break-after: page; -webkit-user-select: none; box-sizing: border-box;"><div style="color: rgb(33, 33, 33); box-sizing: border-box;" fr-original-style=" color: rgb(33, 33, 33);"><div style="color: rgb(33, 33, 33); box-sizing: border-box;" fr-original-style=" color: rgb(33, 33, 33);"><div style="color: rgb(33, 33, 33); box-sizing: border-box;" fr-original-style=" color: rgb(33, 33, 33);"><div style="color: rgb(33, 33, 33); box-sizing: border-box;" id="isPasted" fr-original-style=" color: rgb(33, 33, 33);"><h2 title="Suitability - Who should attend?" style="color: rgb(33, 33, 33); box-sizing: border-box;" fr-original-style=" color: rgb(33, 33, 33);">Suitability - Who should attend?</h2><section fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;"><h3 style="color: rgb(33, 33, 33); box-sizing: border-box;" fr-original-style=" color: rgb(33, 33, 33);">Who Should Attend and Why?</h3>Who?

Are you a stressed, exhausted SEN/EBSA parent or carer, running on empty, with no time to shout "HELP!"&nbsp;let alone step off the hamster wheel to rest, recharge and recuperate?Parenting neurodivergent and/or school avoidant young people comes with a unique set of challenges and, if you&#39;re finding yourself lurching from managing meltdowns to fighting for support or feeling isolated and judged because people don&#39;t understand, it can be really hard and I GET IT!After finding myself pretty much burnt out I discovered and implemented quick and simple self-help and relaxation tools that have helped strengthen my coping skills to navigate my family&#39;s journey, rebuild my resilience and rediscover&nbsp;my old self!&nbsp;I was so blown away by how beneficial simple habits can be that it&#39;s my mission to help others do the same - and so I created&nbsp;The SHARE Project.The ethos of THE SHARE Project is that&nbsp;we need to put our own oxygen mask on first&nbsp;so that we can&nbsp;best support our kids&nbsp;and my aim is that the tools you will learn during our time together will become your oxygen mask, not only for use in case of emergency, but as a sustainable part of your ongoing&nbsp;self-care and wellbeing.During each&nbsp;of four, weekly, live&nbsp;online workshops, delivered over Zoom, you will learn and practise a new tool to implement daily over the coming week (just a&nbsp;few minutes at a time, I promise)!Then, during the following week&#39;s workshop we will review your progress, make any tweaks and learn and practise the next tool...&nbsp;There&#39;ll be no suggestions of long and luxurious spa days and fluffy robes because most of us don&#39;t have the time to do that very often and, frankly, the benefits disappear almost as soon as you&#39;ve driven home... My mission&nbsp;is to give you sustainable tools to use anytime and anywhere to help yourself cope better and feel happier, regardless of what&#39;s going on around you!Each group session gives you the opportunity to connect with other SEN parents or carers&nbsp;experiencing similar challenges.What our clients say:"The Share project was a gentle, kind experience which showed understanding for parenting with additional challenges. &nbsp;The refocusing was extremely powerful and I felt nurtured by the sessions.""I gained different techniques to build resilience and overcome overwhelm."&nbsp; "has helped me have a more positive outlook day to day, relaxation has helped with my sleep" If you have any questions, please ask and I will be happy to help :)Sue&nbsp;

Discover Calm and Happiness with The SHARE Project: Your Path to Resilience! 🌟
Are you feeling exhausted, overwhelmed and stretched to your limit?  With meetings and meltdowns to manage, battles for support, the frustration of feeling isolated or misunderstood, not to mention the pressure of juggling your job too, it can It can feel like you’re running on empty; hard to find a moment to step off the hamster wheel and just breathe.
I’ve been there, and I get it!💛
After being on the brink of burnout myself, I stumbled upon simple, yet impactful self-help, self-care and relaxation tools.

Through our four-week, live online workshop series, delivered via Zoom, you’ll discover practical tools to bring more calm and happiness into your daily life.

Weekly Workshops:  Each week, we’ll introduce and practice one or two tools designed to fit seamlessly into your life (in just a few minutes at a time, I promise!).

Instead, you’ll learn sustainable, go-to strategies that you can use anytime, anywhere, to boost your wellbeing, even in the midst of chaos.  You will also receive a mid-week email of encouragement between workshops and printables to help record and track your progress.
Ongoing Support:  In each session, we’ll review your progress, fine-tune your approach, if needed, and introduce the next tool.  
Community Connection: You’ll be part of a supportive group of fellow SEN parents and carers who understand the unique challenges you face.  
What our clients say:
“The SHARE Project was a gentle, kind experience which showed understanding for parenting with additional challenges.  The refocusing was extremely powerful and I felt nurtured by the sessions.”

On 16th December there will be a series of live discussion events for the specific ages the course covers to assess your learning (you must attend at least one of these events - please see below for further information). 
Why? 
People with complex needs, deserve a thorough, co-ordinated 24-hour postural care service. We only get one body and yet people with complex disabilities don't always get the 'annual service' afforded the equipment they use.
Posture Positive report (2020) found training is a key aspect to developing resilient and robust 24-hour postural care for people with complex needs. Every person with complex needs or limited movement requires a comprehensive 24-hour postural care service delivered in a personalised way. 
Who? 
The course is suitable for specialist physiotherapists, specialist occupational therapists and other highly trained healthcare professionals working in health, SEN and social care. 
The course breaks down the life span of a person as follows:
0-3 years
Children and young people in education
Adults
Older people an palliative care
Each delegate selects the aspects of the course relevant to their particular area of practice whilst having access to all the course resources.
What? 
On completion of the course, it is hoped delegates will be equipped with the knowledge needed to deliver an outstanding, person-centred, 24-hour postural care service. 
This course covers: 
Why is postural care such a big deal?
What is 24-hour postural care?
Identification of need
Predictable changes to body shape
Preventing, protecting and reversing body shape distortion
Postural care in the real world with real people
Special considerations for all stages of life
Monitoring and evaluating outcomes
Co-production in developing personalised postural care
You can focus on one specific age group or take a general approach allowing you to adapt the course to meet your own learning objectives. 
On 16th December the final live review events with the trainers via Zoom are available for the specific ages that the course covers. You must attend at least one of these live discussion (the one most relevant to your practice) but you are welcome to join all four. Please note the timings are GMT.
10.30am - 11.30am 0-3 years
11.45am – 12.45pm Children in education
1.45pm - 2.45pm Adults
3.00pm - 4.00pm Older people and palliative care
Training for individuals and family carers
On successful completion of the course, all delegates will gain access to bespoke training materials designed by parents for parents of people with complex needs. This includes ongoing trainer support for local therapists hosting the workshops, pre-recorded training videos, workbook and designated webpage.
