  • Date:
  • Time:

‘This award-winning training uses a unique, outcomes-focused communication framework ‘SCARS’ brought to life with real-time learning through skilled facilitation and coaching. Whether you want to prepare for a difficult conversation or you suddenly find yourself fresh in the middle of one, we teach you techniques and tips to start and close them safely & positively.’ Founder: Dr Catherine Millington-Sanders

Difficult or challenging conversations don’t have to be painful for either party. We can all think of conversations at work that could have gone better - whether with a work colleague or a supported person and their family. Our training develops skill, confidence, and knowledge and introduces tools to confidently master conversations, across different scenarios, however challenging.

Empower: Improve confidence, skill and knowledge of staff facing challenging conversations with the people they support and/or family members. 

 

How: Develop better communication skills and strategies, including navigating sensitive conversations, managing expectations, and effectively addressing disagreements
