Course Overview:
Disagreements, differences of opinion and conflicting perspectives on key issues inevitably arise in any context where people are working together.
Research has shown that workplace conflicts can become highly destructive. Negative emotions may be stirred up, poisoning team morale, creating stress and destroying relationships.
Conflict may emerge between managers and their staff, between team members or departments.
Conflict may be expressed openly, but it may also be hidden, in the form of irritation, resentment, loss of morale and lack of commitment. Hidden conflict is easy to miss and therefore can be particularly damaging.
Ultimately, this is likely to have an adverse effect on team and company performance, costing time and money.
It is therefore vital to manage conflict constructively.
As a team member and leader, your ability to deal with and resolve conflicts defines your success in the longer term.
Our one day workshop in Conflict Management and Communication Skills immerses you in the most advanced conflict management tools, strategies and practices applicable today. You will gain hands-on practice on proven frameworks, go through simulations and exercises that will train you to be a highly effective professional and leader, starting day one.

Course Overview:

Employee engagement is a necessary strategy for companies that want to succeed in the marketplace.  Employee engagement is not an HR initiative that managers are reminded to do once a year.  It is a key strategic driver of employee performance, accomplishment, and continuous improvement all year long. It is the outcome of how your organisation interacts with people to drive business results.
This Employee Engagement training is suitable for anyone that works in a management or leadership role.

Course Contents:

Help improve the engagement of your employees and increase business success
Engagement is a heightened emotional connection that an employee feels for his organisation, which influences them to put in greater effort. Higher engagement levels yield higher productivity and retention rates. This makes employee engagement a powerful factor in business success. Engaged employees are more productive, customer-focused, and profit-oriented and organisations are more likely to retain them.
An essential part of an organisation’s talent management strategy is its focus on employee engagement and retention. Organisations that maintain this focus create an environment where employees have the tools, resources, and professional opportunities to develop skills and fulfil their career goals.
Why is taking this course a good idea?

Well, just imagine if your you were better able to:

Understand the importance of employee engagement and the key part it plays in business success.
Apply tactics that motivate and engage employees, creating advocates for the business.
Achieve a working environment that encourages employees to excel at work activities.
Ensure talent retention by creating positive working relationships.
Develop a strategy for employee engagement success.
Prevent activities that cause disengagement and disgruntled workers.
Ultimately, these training course materials will help managers to engage and enthuse their team, creating a motivated workforce that wants to succeed.
Employee engagement is a key factor in creating the right conditions for all members of an organisation to give their best each day, committed to their organisation’s goals and values, motivated to contribute to organisational success, and with an enhanced sense of their own well-being.
These course materials aim to help highlight the requirements that managers and leaders have to help improve the engagement of employees, while giving them key tools and supporting content to ensure they are prepared  to deliver on employee engagement within the organisation.

Course Topics:

Introduction and Objectives – Setting the scene for the training course, defining what is meant by employee engagement and establishing participants expectations.
The Current Situations – Using a PEST analysis approach to identify the current status of employee engagement within the organisation, whilst establishing the internal and external factors that can have an impact on employee engagement.
Roles and Responsibilities – Establishing the different roles people have in ensuring employee engagement and the responsibilities that we all have for ourselves in ensuring we are motivated and engaged at work. Participants are encouraged to consider their own level of engagement, what this means and how it can improve.
The Four Enablers – Focusing on the Four Steps to Employee Engagement and how organisations and the leaders within it can create the right environment for a positive outlook to be nurtured. Includes a case study to identify key working practices.
Job Design – Understanding how the implementation of a job role can affect how the employee feels about it and the five characteristics that should be considered to help develop a role that employees are motivated to work in. Includes a chance to apply the five characteristics to a job role to help relate the approach to a real scenario.
Creating the Right Work Environment – Reviewing the big picture and the approach that the organisation and managers should take to ensure a culture of engagement and motivating factors. Creating an environment where employee engagement can flourish and applying techniques to personal work experiences.
Engagement and Retention – Establishing the importance of long-term career growth and opportunity to engagement and how this helps develop employees that feel valued and enjoy what they do each day. Includes a case study to identify how the approach can be applied to real-life scenarios.
Engagement Tactics – Developing an understanding of the tactics that can be applied to employee engagement and prioritising the factors that are most influential.
Disengagement and the Six Human Needs – Identifying how employees become disengaged and what action can be taken to turn this around. Developing knowledge of the fundamental needs that people need to have met to make them feel happy and motivated. Includes a case study that helps participants identify the needs of employees in a real example, while helping them to identify issues within their own team.
Critical Success Factors – Focusing on the engagement techniques that can be applied in the workplace and the critical success factors that managers should include in their strategy and how they might overcome barriers or challenges to their approach.

Learn the secrets of self defence and take back your power!
Become confident, empowered and prepared for a safe and fun university experience
Heading off to Uni but feeling scared, overwhelmed and nervous?


You're not alone! Leaving home to go to college or university on your own is a life-changing experience and it is natural to feel anxious. You may be wondering:
Will I be safe?
Will I be able to keep my belongings secure?
Will I manage on my own?
And our answer to you is, yes! With our course, plus some preparation and practice, you will find the power inside you to protect yourself and stay safe.


We've taught thousands of students at establishments such as Regents University London, University of Lincoln, Northern Ballet School, Cardiff University, UCS Hampstead and many more. After we were asked for an online video course so even more students could access our self defence training, we developed 'How to stay safe at university and college'.


This course is for you if:
You want to discover simple and effective self defence techniques that anyone of any ability can use
You want to learn how to de-escalate dangerous or potentially violent situations
You want to avoid threats and stay safe at university or college.
Are you a student at university or college?


Find out more about our self defence course for students - hear from Dene Josham, founder of Streetwise Defence and A-list bodyguard.


Your course instructor


Dene Josham's background includes 20 years as a bodyguard to celebrities such as Brad Pitt, Angelina Jolie and Russell Crowe, plus time spent working in private security in some of the world's most dangerous environments, including Iraq, Nigeria, Tunisia and Libya.
In his younger years, Dene joined the Royal Marines and trained in Kung Fu, Thai Boxing, Jiu Jitsu and a mixture of other martial arts.
"What has remained consistent throughout my career is the urge to protect people from harm. I know now that this stems back to childhood bullying and for the past 10 years I've been teaching self defence to corporates, students and private individuals so other people don't experience pain like I did.
I hope this training is beneficial to you and can prevent you from experiencing the trauma of an attack. Everyone has the right to feel safe and protect themselves from physical and emotional harm."
Dene Josham

Student testimonials


“The training with Dene has changed my views on self defence protection – I know how to prevent escalation, put myself first and be confident in my actions and decisions.”
Miss S.B.


”It was so interesting and really useful! Definitely feel much more confident when I’m on my own out in public now. I think a lot of what was discussed is different to ‘common ideas’ around self-defence and what you see in the media about how to protect yourself. I liked that it was different info to the generic stuff that’s out there currently and more simple”
Ms A.C.

Frequently asked questions?


What if I’ve never done any self defence training before?
No problem! This course is intended for total beginners. You do not need any prior knowledge of self defence.


I already have training in martial arts or boxing, will I learn anything new?
Absolutely! We do not teach punching, kicking or martial arts. Most of what we teach is about psychology, awareness and advice on how to stay safe. The physical self defence moves we teach are based on special forces techniques.


Is the training mostly physical?
No. The majority of our training is psychological. We believe that self defence is 95% awareness and avoidance. Our goal is that through the education and advice we provide, will not find yourself in a dangerous situation because you can avoid it as much as possible.
Physical training is part of the course, and you can learn the self defence skills simply by watching the demonstrations. We also recommend that you practice them with someone - but carefully and in slow time without force.


Is the course for males and females?
Yes, it is appropriate for students of any gender.


What age of student is this course for?
This course is suitable for any college or university age student over the age of 16.


How long do I have access to the course?
After enrolling, you have unlimited access to this course for as long as we continue to run it.


When does the course start and finish?
The course starts now and ends when you are ready. It is a completely self-paced online course - you decide when you start and when you finish. And, you can go back on and refresh your knowledge whenever you want.


Can I take this entire course in one day?
You can! BUT, we recommend completing it in small pieces so that you can reflect on what you have learnt. There is a lot of content to take in and some of it could be upsetting.


What if I am unhappy with the course?
We would never want you to be unhappy! If you are unsatisfied with your purchase, please contact us and we'll be glad to have a conversation with you about it.




Take a look inside the course


Want to see what the course looks like? Never done a video course before? Dene gives you a quick guided tour and taste of the training.

“I cannot recommend this training highly enough. The essential training all girls/women need to enable confidence that they have the methods to protect themselves if they’re ever in a situation where control is taken from them.


Dene presents an honest and straightforward method that’s easy to remember without any unnecessary detail to complicate things (no martial arts here!). We booked the session for our daughters in readiness for them heading to university in big cities but, as mums in our mid-40s, this was an eye-opener and training that will benefit us all.”
