Description
Humans have thrived because of their ability to co-operate. By working in small groups we are better able to provide food, warmth, protection and supportive relationships.

If we all have a good idea of our collective plan (Where we are, where we are going and how to get there) and our expectations are met by working to the plan then we all thrive.

However, if we lose sight of the plan or if our reasonable needs and expectations are not being met then the balance of power and leadership might change which can induce FEAR.

Learn how to RESPOND rather than react when change and fear are in the air.

Groupings may emerge who sense that the environment has changed and that new destinations can be reached with new leaders or a different set of rules to those currently in place.

The prospect of unknown change drives fear.
When we are in fear our behaviours can become dysfunctional and we may no longer understand the rules of the group or know who to trust any more.

This fear based process or readjustment can be called group or office politics.

The art of handling political situations is to seek a restoration of balance so that all members' needs are met.

You may feel pressured to take sides or express opinions about others but there is no need to feel coercion at all.

Great Leaders achieve this by winning Trust, Respect and Confidence.

Backstabbers, the devious and those with a lust for personal power rarely survive long.

Balance, Harmony, Honest Communication, Truth and Justice must and canÂ be restored to achieve win-win scenarios.

This course will teach you how to spot political dysfunction and to thrive as a healthy and happy team

Who this course is for:
Anybody who senses that their workplace in no longer operating as they reasonably expected
If you get angry, agitated or want to avoid the workplace then this course is for you
