Overview This one day course will provide guidance on how to become more assertive and build self-confidence, which in-turn will help your attendees to achieve greater work effectiveness and productivity, whilst putting them in control of their daily activities and making them more able to overcome stressful work and life situations. Description Being assertive is being able to express yourself with confidence without having to resort to passive, aggressive or manipulative behaviour. By developing assertiveness and becoming aware of our own strengths and weaknesses, we can modify our behaviour for greater effectiveness in social and business interactions. Topics covered: What is Assertiveness? – A series of activities relating to what assertiveness means and, perhaps more importantly, what it means to the participants. My Assertiveness Goals – A chance for the participants to review what they want to get out of the session and where they would like to end up with regard to their approach to assertiveness. How Assertiveness Works – A look at human reactions and the reasoning behind them culminating in an activity that looks at the participants own observations in relation to assertive behaviour. My Assertive Rights – A review of the rights we have as individuals followed by a commitment to the rights by the participants. Taking a Positive Approach – Looking at key methodology, including: – Giving and Receiving Compliments A review of typical responses to compliments and their negative consequences, followed by an opportunity to develop new, positive responses. – Improving Self-Esteem An in-depth review of each individual’s positive aspects. – New Challenges A set of challenges to take participants out of their comfort-zone and into the realm of possibilities. – Effective Communication A look at what makes effective communication, with some modelling of behaviours. Approaching Assertiveness – A look at the four cornerstones of being assertive with an opportunity to practice these behaviours. The Words You Use – Understanding the key areas of effective communication. Covering the areas of; Disclosing Your Feelings, Being Clear, Being Persistent, Empathising and Working Towards a Wise Outcome. Preparing to Be Assertive – A chance to understand and practice a set process of ‘scripting’ in order to develop an effective and natural approach to assertive interactions. Assertive Review – An activity that solidifies the reasoning behind wanting to become assertive, whilst demonstrating that it is not an unachievable outcome. Who should attend Anyone that needs to develop their assertiveness skills and improve communication with others Requirements for Attendees None.

Developing and using our innate resources well is as integral to mental health as meeting our emotional needs – join HG co-founder Ivan Tyrrell and Diploma tutor Carol Harper to explore them further Accredited CPD Certificate: 5 hours Suitable for: All health and welfare professionals – and anyone interested in what makes us who we are A perfectly coordinated seminar, a ‘dance’ between psychotherapy geniuses Ivan Tyrrell and Carol Harper - I wouldn't have missed it for the worldIAKOVOS FLASKIS Why take this course Nature provided us with a wealth of inbuilt resources to help us get our innate physical and emotional needs met. They are a fundamental part of being human, what we call human ‘givens’, and can be usefully thought of as internal guidance systems that not only enable us to survive but to achieve remarkable things. They have been continuously refined over thousands of years and are still evolving. A lot of attention is given to the importance of ensuring that people’s innate emotional and physical needs are met well – but our resources are an integral part of this: if they are not fully developed, or are misused or even damaged, we can suffer greatly. A clear understanding of these guidance systems, how they work and what they do for us, is essential if you wish to help others, improve our society, or understand yourself and those around you better. This is especially true if you are an involved parent, teacher, manager, or any kind of therapist. If you work with, or for, others you need this knowledge – understanding what makes us all ‘tick’ should be at the heart of everything we do. Amazing! Incredibly fascinating subject delivered with a deep respect for the profound human resources with which we are endowed...DAMIAN FEARNS, TRAINER, FACILITATOR, COACH What you will gain A deeper understanding of yourself and others More insight into the holistic nature of the rich but incomplete patterns that we inherit from our genes How and why these patterns must seek their completion in the environment An increased understanding of how memory is involved in learning – from birth to old age Guidance about how malleable memory is and why forgetting is as important as remembering The unexpected science behind emotional arousal – how emotions are created moment by moment A deeper understanding of the APET model – and why metaphorical pattern matching is central to all human interactions and endeavours Greater insight into why emotions create trance states in us – and the role this plays in many disorders Why being able to go into trance is essential for learning A richer understanding of the important role imagination plays A better understanding of how dreaming preserves the integrity of our genetic inheritance The confidence and skills to build on the instinct for rapport and what happens when that instinct is only crudely met in infancy An understanding of how rapport plays an important part in language acquisition How to counter the blight of loneliness Why reasoning is important and so difficult for some people What it means to ‘know’ something How we can check out our own emotional responses and biases We also consider whether intuition is an innate resource and the role accessing the Observing Self has in spiritual development And much more… No prior knowledge of the human givens approach is needed to benefit from this course. What's included? 14 Videos 10 Multiple choice quizzes PDF Course Notes & downloads Life-long access CPD Certificate Course programme The ‘A closer look at our innate resources’ online course is split into 10 sections and covers the following: Resources: guidance systems for life and learning Emotions, dreaming, trance states, imagination The ability to build rapport Reason, how we know and the Observing Self This course has been independently accredited by the internationally recognised CPD Standards Office for 5 hours of CPD training.
