Your booking is private for you/your group only. &nbsp;I run classes in glass fusing for up to 6 people in Worcester for beginners and those who have done it a few times before and want to explore more techniques. Bring a friend (or a few!) - it is great fun to have fellow learners to bounce ideas off and you can book a date and time to suit you. In 1.5 hours you can usually make approx 2-3 items including 1 small piece like jewellery and then a larger piece eg: coasters, hanging panels, tree decorations etc. &nbsp;The one-off lesson is suitable for people who want to learn the basic techniques of a new craft which might lead to a new hobby and if you are interested I can talk you through the equipment needed etc. Or you can just come to try something new and enjoy the creative experience. It is a great gift idea for someone who enjoys trying new things!&nbsp;Glass fusing is where pieces of coloured glass are cut and layered, put into a kiln and fused together to make jewellery, coasters or decorative window hangings (sun-catchers) etc. Glass comes in many forms and cutting is not always needed and you don&#39;t need any artistic ability! I provide plenty of ideas for inspiration.&nbsp;Here is the detail:&nbsp;&bull; 1-1 or 1-2 or 1-3 etc. tuition can be arranged at a time to suit you throughout the year. The more people in the booking, the price reduces per person. Your booking is for a private class and you won&#39;t be mixing with others. (Age 10-16 accompanied by paying adult)&nbsp;&bull; A lesson includes the glass materials and metal inclusions, jewellery fixings and the firing of your pieces - usually around 2-3 items: jewellery and either a sun-catcher or coaster and other smaller pieces too which will be ready to collect in 1-2 weeks. (Postage can be arranged at cost if preferred.)&nbsp;&bull; The studio is equipped with a large range of coloured glass in different sizes and formats, various glitters and metal inclusions, kiln fibre, appropriate tools and safety equipment and an electric kiln.&nbsp;&bull; If you have a particular project you want to try out (e.g. sun-catcher or coaster) then we will discuss how you can achieve that in the time available.&nbsp;A craft lesson makes a great unusual gift for a fun creative activity to do together. You can get in contact to arrange a date and time that would suit. I am very flexible for evenings or daytime slots. I am flexible and open to longer classes up to whole day classes and I also combine courses with my husband who is a potter. I also run enamelling classes and offer a "Glass Experience Day" where you can try stained glass, fused glass and enamelling in 1 fun day!<h3 style="color: rgb(60, 60, 60); box-sizing: border-box;" fr-original-style=" color: rgb(60, 60, 60);">What&#39;s included in the price?</h3>I offer you a tea or coffee at the start and all materials and equipment are provided as well as the firing of all your pieces and any jewellery bails fixed for you after the class.

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.
This course is highly interactive and includes activities, discussions and exercises throughout to both engage the learners and help embed the learning.

Course Description:
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.
