What is our Phoenix Effect workshop about?
Our Phoenix Effect workshop helps your organisation burn down the toxic elements of its organisational culture and working environment and rebuild them through a positive, collaborative, and people-focused long-term plan. 
The plan is created by the end of the workshop for everyone to take away and collaborate in its success. The success will be managed, driven and, yes, even policed by the Organisational Culture Engagement Team (OCET), or whatever name you decide to give it. 
The team will consist of individuals from all levels within the organisation who are motivated to make this work and see the growth of a new and better organisational culture driven by its organisational values (make sure your values are people-focused). 
The overarching psychological safety will be guaranteed in the People Strategy document (I can help you with that if you haven’t got one yet). In it, the organisation will state that all colleagues, regardless of their position, will not just be permitted to say what they want to anyone at all, but that they will do so as part of their job. 
Furthermore, the organisational values should be copied into every job description as part of the employee contract. This, in turn, permits the one-to-one chats to ensure colleagues are doing their jobs by performing as they should and behaving in a manner that supports the organisational values and culture. 
The organisation will then be set up to continue on that journey, with everyone working collaboratively in a psychologically safe environment to grow a superb organisation to work in and attract new talent. 
Who Should Attend and Why?
Who? 
All people in HR and Training/L&D. People from various levels who will have volunteered and been identified as motivated to drive the organisation-wide development required to succeed. 
Why? 
We should ALL want to help improve our working environment and make our teams feel safe and happy. 
Regardless of who we work with or for, we must all do everything we can to work well together and build and maintain excellent working relationships. 
When we truly understand things from the perspective of others (our Moccasin Approach®), we are far better able to communicate and work with them effectively and efficiently. 
It’s the people in an organisation who make it or break it. They help create positivity or negativity. Do well by your people, and they will do well by you.
Workshop Content
All Phoenix Effect workshops are facilitated by our managing director, Mac Macdonald, who has vast experience helping organisations from all industries of all sizes and sectors. 


We open with our ingredients of Emotional Intelligence (EI).
We then delve into the truth about Organisational Culture (OC) and share our honest thoughts and opinions.
Everyone completes our OC self-assessment in small groups and then shares their thinking to build a starting hit list.
Small group discussions to establish possible solutions to their OC issues?
What causes these issues, and what can we suggest as possible solutions?
How will the fire burn down the old culture, and how will the new culture rise from those ashes and plan the change?
We will discuss our ES2 thinking and see why it is critical to this Phoenix Effect objective.
We discuss “Consequence Conversations” and why they must be used.
We examine our “ARCHWAY Approach”® to understand why it can be used as a health checker.

<h2><strong>About this Training Course</strong></h2>
<p>This course will begin with a presentation of topics to familiarize Process and Instrumentation Engineers with procedures and practices involved in the choice of sensors related to the measurement of temperature, pressure, level and flow in relation to single-phase flows. It will provide guidance on the optimum commercially available devices through a detailed comparison of their relative merits. At the heart of this course is sensor calibration which is a crucial element for these topics.</p>
<p>The course will also examine the various types of flow control valve, including Globe, Slide, Needle, Eccentric plug and Ball valves and their characteristics in industrial application, while focusing on the problems of Cavitation and Flashing and methods to minimise or eradicate these issues. With the use of examples, industry case studies and a wide range of videos, this course will also cover all aspects of proportional (P), derivative (D) and integral (I) control. In particular, it will address the advantages and disadvantages of PI and PID control. It will also describe Cascade, Feed forward, Split Range, Override and Ratio Control techniques.</p>

<h3><b>TCP/IP training course description</b></h3>
        <p>An intensive hands on IP foundation leading to LINX
          Accredited Internet Technician stage 1. The course
          focuses on all parts of TCP/IP including layers 4 to 7 on
          end stations as well as layer 3 on routers. The TCP/IP
          protocols are also studied to enable delegates to be
          able to troubleshoot TCP/IP using Wireshark. Hands on
          sessions are used to reinforce the theory rather than
          teach specific manufacturer equipment.<br />
          <b>A multiple choice exam, leading to the LAIT I
          certification, is available after the course. The exam
          consists of 40 questions and lasts 1.5 hours.</b> </p>

All this will be integrated into how graphic elements are printed after they are processed in graphic design software for the purpose of visually illustrating emotions and messages.</p><p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;"><br fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">During the course you will be exposed to:&nbsp;<strong fr-original-style="" style="font-weight: 700; box-sizing: border-box;">advertisements, magazines, newspapers, corporate graphic designs particular to company cultures and brand identity, stationery, letterheads, business cards, logos, books, packaging and much more.</strong></p></div><div data-id="68acc2a" data-element_type="widget" data-widget_type="image.default" fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;"><img width="1024" height="692" alt="" data-srcset="https://blueskygraphics.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/Student-work-123456-1024x692.webp 1024w, https://blueskygraphics.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/Student-work-123456-300x203.webp 300w, https://blueskygraphics.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/Student-work-123456-768x519.webp 768w, https://blueskygraphics.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/Student-work-123456.webp 1440w" data-src="https://blueskygraphics.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/Student-work-123456-1024x692.webp" data-sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" src="https://blueskygraphics.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/Student-work-123456-1024x692.webp" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" srcset="https://blueskygraphics.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/Student-work-123456-1024x692.webp 1024w, https://blueskygraphics.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/Student-work-123456-300x203.webp 300w, https://blueskygraphics.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/Student-work-123456-768x519.webp 768w, https://blueskygraphics.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/Student-work-123456.webp 1440w" fr-original-style="" style="cursor: pointer; padding: 0px 1px; user-select: none; max-width: 100%; position: relative; box-sizing: border-box;" fr-original-class="fr-draggable"></div><div data-id="e3de655" data-element_type="widget" data-widget_type="text-editor.default" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); box-sizing: border-box;" fr-original-style=" color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"><p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">The graphic design course teaches you to understand and learn how to operate a labyrinthine yet amazing world of Adobe software. With this software we explore the uses of words, shapes, textures, forms, sizes and colours to communicate by combining ideas and images to make a new concept. Graphic design through common misconception is not just about layout and typography, but much more about ideas behind visual meaning. Graphic design can make a company more successful in the world if it makes communication smart, attractive and able to captivate its audience. Graphic design can effectively be used by businesses to make (or break) their brand identity, increase sales, promote web traffic or promote services and products through advertising on their websites to convey complex data to its readers in a clear way.</p><p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">Elements of graphic design include:&nbsp;<strong fr-original-style="" style="font-weight: 700; box-sizing: border-box;">Colour, Size, Texture, Line, Shape, Space and, Form</strong>. It is important that each element is understood correctly, and this is one of the key principles we teach on our graphic design course. In other terms, graphic design communicates certain ideas or messages through visuals. These visuals can be as simple as a business logo, or as complex as pages of web design.

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

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. These quick, effective techniques helped me rebuild my resilience, reclaim my sense of self and navigate challenges with renewed strength and joy.  And that’s how The SHARE Project was born.
What is The SHARE Project?
The SHARE Project is built on a simple principle: you need to put your own oxygen mask on first!  By nurturing yourself, you’re better equipped to support your children. Through our three, weekly, set of live online workshops, delivered via Zoom, you’ll discover practical tools to bring more calm and happiness into your daily life.
Here’s what you can expect:
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!). These are not your typical “luxury spa day” suggestions — because let’s face it, who has time for that?  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.”
“It has helped me to have a more positive outlook day-to-day, and the relaxation has helped with my sleep.”
