This is an interdisciplinary event with Social Care Ireland; the Irish Association of Social Work; Irish Association of Speech and Language Therapists; Irish Society of Chartered Physiotherapists; Irish Institute of Radiography and Radiation Therapy and Irish Institute of Clinical Measurement Physiology. The course has been funded by the HSCP Office, HSE. As such, places are available to SLTs in the publicly funded healthcare service only.
Rationale:
This year six professions from the professional development network identified leadership skills as a CPD need within their profession. Expanding these interdisciplinary Leadership workshops would be beneficial to share learning across a whole host of different leadership roles within the different sectors. These workshops will be targeting senior management and leaders. Thus, ensuring leaders and managers can maintain and develop skills to deliver a high-quality strategic service and not be blocked if they are faced with challenges and conflict within teams.
Workshop Overview:
These workshops have been designed for leaders/managers who attempt or avoid difficult conversations out of fear of the consequences. Typically, when the conversation does occur the parties think and feel a lot more than they say. These one-day workshops will address any issues that make conversations difficult and develop strategies as well as present tools that can be used to have real meaningful conversations where both parties are happy with the outcomes. Learning how to proactively navigate conflict, ensuring that all voices are heard, and that the most workable and practical solution can be implemented. Navigating conflict and leading change is our new mind-set, in which we help teams move from conflict to constructive disagreement as a catapult to high performance and moving forward with projects. It can lead to higher job satisfaction, stronger relationships with colleagues, and innovation.
