SUMMARY:Habits and Patterns
DESCRIPTION:Much is currently written on creating personal and professional habits that are generative. Such habits do us\, and others\, good. But it seems to be part of the human condition that we\, at times\, ‘do what we don’t want to do\, and don’t do what we want to do‘. \nSometimes the patterns we inhabit can be difficult to overcome\, often an inner struggle is experienced. If this sounds familiar\, relax – you are not alone! \nFrom ancient philosophers to modern psychologists\, habits and patterns have long been on the agenda. But what does this mean for us as practitioners? \nIn this Learning Lab we will offer a brief survey of relevant thinking and then take time to consider our own practice. We will explore concepts such as\, shadow material\, self and social regulation\, culture\, etc. The themes will focus us inward on our own personal development\, and outward to the groups and teams we facilitate. \n\nOnline Learning Labs\nCosts are £80 members\, £115 non-members (no VAT). \nSee below and our Calendar for forthcoming dates and book here. \nBook a Learning Lab×Enquire about a Learning LabPlease send us some basic information either by completing the form below\, or send us an email: \n\n\n  \n\n\n\n\n	First name*\n\n	 \n\n\n	Last name*\n\n	 \n\n\n	Email*\n\n	 \n\n\n	Which Learning Lab?\n\n(enter Title/Date Check the calendar of events here )\n	 \n\n\n	Any Comments\n\n	 \n\n\n	*Required items\n	 \n	 Please tick to consent to send this information to us (Required for GDPR)*.\nTick to sign up for Guest Membership so you receive our Newsletter - Optional).\nFor further details\, please read our Privacy Policy here\n	 \n	You should receive a thank you email from us after clicking send.

SUMMARY:Interventions and Traps
DESCRIPTION:The “6-Cat” (Six Category Intervention Analysis) model developed by John Heron provides a useful framework for any facilitator who has ever asked themselves the question “So\, what do I do now?”  An intervention can be any verbal or non-verbal behaviour offered in service to a group or individually – ideally – the right intervention\, at the right time. \nIn this session\, we will introduce a range of possible interventions\, and consider together\, practically and experientially\, what best serves our groups\, which interventions we might personally overuse or avoid\, and how the content (what is said and done) and manner (timing\, tone\, mood\, non-verbal behaviour) is part of the whole. \nSome time will also be given to recognising and identifying unhealthy and unskilled interventions\, and habitual grooves that we might lapse into as facilitators such as the facilitator as politician\, saboteur\, drama queen or ‘emotional ferret’.  Handling our own feelings (from shame to squirming and everything in between) when we recognise our selves is an important function of awareness and essential for good self-regulation. \n\nOnline Learning Labs\nCosts are £80 members\, £115 non-members (no VAT). \nSee below and our Calendar for forthcoming dates and book here. \nBook a Learning Lab×Enquire about a Learning LabPlease send us some basic information either by completing the form below\, or send us an email: \n\n\n  \n\n\n\n\n	First name*\n\n	 \n\n\n	Last name*\n\n	 \n\n\n	Email*\n\n	 \n\n\n	Which Learning Lab?\n\n(enter Title/Date Check the calendar of events here )\n	 \n\n\n	Any Comments\n\n	 \n\n\n	*Required items\n	 \n	 Please tick to consent to send this information to us (Required for GDPR)*.\nTick to sign up for Guest Membership so you receive our Newsletter - Optional).\nFor further details\, please read our Privacy Policy here\n	 \n	You should receive a thank you email from us after clicking send.

SUMMARY:Contracting
DESCRIPTION:Navigating what work we do\, with who and how we facilitate a group or organisation is the important work of contracting – the central “C’ competency in our FACETS® model.  In our world\, the word ‘contract’ is used in a relational rather than a legalistic sense but both relate to responsibilities\, expectations\, scene-setting and the development of a mutually understood framework conducive to a positive outcome. \nIn this short session\, we will examine how we work ethically and equitably with group participants\, sponsors\, clients and co-facilitators including agreements related to outcomes\, ways of working\, fees\, boundaries and renegotiation. \nAs a facilitation skill-set\, whether you work as an in-house or external facilitator\, good contracting skills overlap with culture setting and consulting and in most groups\, achieving a common understanding of the work is half the assignment. \n\nOnline Learning Labs\nCosts are £80 members\, £115 non-members (no VAT). \nSee below and our Calendar for forthcoming dates and book here. \nBook a Learning Lab×Enquire about a Learning LabPlease send us some basic information either by completing the form below\, or send us an email: \n\n\n  \n\n\n\n\n	First name*\n\n	 \n\n\n	Last name*\n\n	 \n\n\n	Email*\n\n	 \n\n\n	Which Learning Lab?\n\n(enter Title/Date Check the calendar of events here )\n	 \n\n\n	Any Comments\n\n	 \n\n\n	*Required items\n	 \n	 Please tick to consent to send this information to us (Required for GDPR)*.\nTick to sign up for Guest Membership so you receive our Newsletter - Optional).\nFor further details\, please read our Privacy Policy here\n	 \n	You should receive a thank you email from us after clicking send.

SUMMARY:Games People Play
DESCRIPTION:All groups undergo continual shifts in how people relate to each other – the group dynamic.  Ideally\, we notice and work well with issues of ego\, power\, bullying\, victimhood\, life scripts and patterns\, however these present themselves\, including from within our inner world.  Whether relationship dynamics are explicitly the work we are engaged in\, or whether they are just ‘getting in the way’ a knowledge of core models from Transactional Analysis is helpful to all facilitators. \nAfter a brief introduction of the theory of scripts and ‘games people play’\, we will look at how participants (and facilitators) adopt and shift roles to give us power\, rationalise issues\, make us feel better about ourselves and fundamentally maintain the underlying ego- based script that we are attached to. Simply becoming aware of the roles that we and others are playing in the drama triangle\, shifts us towards empowerment and away from drama. In the contrasting empowerment triangle\, roles are dynamic\, self-fulfilling and self-reinforcing and represent a positive form of the group dynamic and a positive way of being. \n\nOnline Learning Labs\nCosts are £80 members\, £115 non-members (no VAT). \nSee below and our Calendar for forthcoming dates and book here. \nBook a Learning Lab×Enquire about a Learning LabPlease send us some basic information either by completing the form below\, or send us an email: \n\n\n  \n\n\n\n\n	First name*\n\n	 \n\n\n	Last name*\n\n	 \n\n\n	Email*\n\n	 \n\n\n	Which Learning Lab?\n\n(enter Title/Date Check the calendar of events here )\n	 \n\n\n	Any Comments\n\n	 \n\n\n	*Required items\n	 \n	 Please tick to consent to send this information to us (Required for GDPR)*.\nTick to sign up for Guest Membership so you receive our Newsletter - Optional).\nFor further details\, please read our Privacy Policy here\n	 \n	You should receive a thank you email from us after clicking send.

SUMMARY:Facilitation Myth Busting and the Perceived Weirdness Index
DESCRIPTION:What do we carry around with us as unexamined truths about facilitation? About ourselves as facilitators? About others as facilitators or group members? About organisations\, “Other People” and “The World”. How does these imaginal and attitudinal realms\, often out of our awareness\, inform and limit our choices and interventions. In our practice\, how might we collude with the prevailing culture and dynamics\, risking becoming assimilated and ineffective\, and what happens when we are rejected. To aid our myth busting explorations\, we will use Jonno Hanafin’s index of “Perceived Weirdness” to explore how we can be most effective as facilitators and agents of change. \n\nOnline Learning Labs\nCosts are £80 members\, £115 non-members (no VAT). \nSee below and our Calendar for forthcoming dates and book here. \nBook a Learning Lab×Enquire about a Learning LabPlease send us some basic information either by completing the form below\, or send us an email: \n\n\n  \n\n\n\n\n	First name*\n\n	 \n\n\n	Last name*\n\n	 \n\n\n	Email*\n\n	 \n\n\n	Which Learning Lab?\n\n(enter Title/Date Check the calendar of events here )\n	 \n\n\n	Any Comments\n\n	 \n\n\n	*Required items\n	 \n	 Please tick to consent to send this information to us (Required for GDPR)*.\nTick to sign up for Guest Membership so you receive our Newsletter - Optional).\nFor further details\, please read our Privacy Policy here\n	 \n	You should receive a thank you email from us after clicking send.

SUMMARY:Safety\, Learning and the Psychological Contract
DESCRIPTION:When a climate of psychological safety exists\, group members feel substantially free to contribute in service of their shared goals. In this state\, anxieties and fears are manageable (seldom completely absent) and the common experience is a generative one. In contrast\, groups become less effective when participants experience negative qualities\, for example\, being ignored\, excluded\, shamed\, blamed\, persecuted\, or similar. Where a sense of psychological safety predominates\, this usually correlates with a high quality of personal and professional competence. Here\, an environment is created where meaningful\, ‘flow-state’\, experiences take place and development is accelerated. The positive impact is felt by participants\, and those around them. \nHow do we as facilitators understand and work with factors that lead to psychological safety as a common group experience? \nIn practice\, the experience of safety is a complex one. On the one hand\, groups can be so safe that there is insufficient challenge for development to take place. On the other hand\, groups can feel so unsafe that defensive behaviours arise as a way to handle the stress. Further\, individual perceptions of safety tend to differ. What one person considers safe\, another considers unsafe. So how then do we judge and calibrate our facilitator interventions? \nFinally\, it’s evident that the language of psychological safety has become common parlance in organisations\, and perhaps rightly so. But\, how does language\, attitudes and dialogue about psychological safety impact group experience? Can the concept itself become used as a power play or an avoidance mechanism? What has been your experience? \nIn this learning lab\, we will critically reflect on our own practice as facilitators and develop our own strengths and understanding of facilitating in and around the bounds of psychological safety. \n\nOnline Learning Labs\nCosts are £80 members\, £115 non-members (no VAT). \nSee below and our Calendar for forthcoming dates and book here. \nBook a Learning Lab×Enquire about a Learning LabPlease send us some basic information either by completing the form below\, or send us an email: \n\n\n  \n\n\n\n\n	First name*\n\n	 \n\n\n	Last name*\n\n	 \n\n\n	Email*\n\n	 \n\n\n	Which Learning Lab?\n\n(enter Title/Date Check the calendar of events here )\n	 \n\n\n	Any Comments\n\n	 \n\n\n	*Required items\n	 \n	 Please tick to consent to send this information to us (Required for GDPR)*.\nTick to sign up for Guest Membership so you receive our Newsletter - Optional).\nFor further details\, please read our Privacy Policy here\n	 \n	You should receive a thank you email from us after clicking send.

SUMMARY:Reflective Practice
DESCRIPTION:What do we mean when we talk of reflective practice? In this Learning Lab we will unpack the concept and consider what it might mean for us as practitioners. \nDrawing on key writers in the field\, we’ll explore how we evaluate the knowledge derived through self-awareness\, and how we use intuition to think\, feel\, and find meaning. \nWe will also consider the critical side of reflection\, that part of us which is sceptical of the assumptions we make and of the context which informs us. \nNo doubt this Learning Lab will offer more questions than answers\, however\, the focus of the inquiry will be on reflective practice in your context. \nSee below and our Calendar for forthcoming dates and book here. \nBook a Learning Lab×Enquire about a Learning LabClosePlease send us some basic information either by completing the form below\, or send us an email: \n\n\n  \n\n\n\n\n	First name*\n\n	 \n\n\n	Last name*\n\n	 \n\n\n	Email*\n\n	 \n\n\n	Which Learning Lab?\n\n(enter Title/Date Check the calendar of events here )\n	 \n\n\n	Any Comments\n\n	 \n\n\n	*Required items\n	 \n	 Please tick to consent to send this information to us (Required for GDPR)*.\nTick to sign up for Guest Membership so you receive our Newsletter - Optional).\nFor further details\, please read our Privacy Policy here\n	 \n	You should receive a thank you email from us after clicking send.

SUMMARY:Habits and Patterns
DESCRIPTION:Much is currently written on creating personal and professional habits that are generative. Such habits do us\, and others\, good. But it seems to be part of the human condition that we\, at times\, ‘do what we don’t want to do\, and don’t do what we want to do‘. \nSometimes the patterns we inhabit can be difficult to overcome\, often an inner struggle is experienced. If this sounds familiar\, relax – you are not alone! \nFrom ancient philosophers to modern psychologists\, habits and patterns have long been on the agenda. But what does this mean for us as practitioners? \nIn this Learning Lab we will offer a brief survey of relevant thinking and then take time to consider our own practice. We will explore concepts such as\, shadow material\, self and social regulation\, culture\, etc. The themes will focus us inward on our own personal development\, and outward to the groups and teams we facilitate. \n\nOnline Learning Labs\nCosts are £80 members\, £115 non-members (no VAT). \nSee below and our Calendar for forthcoming dates and book here. \nBook a Learning Lab×Enquire about a Learning LabPlease send us some basic information either by completing the form below\, or send us an email: \n\n\n  \n\n\n\n\n	First name*\n\n	 \n\n\n	Last name*\n\n	 \n\n\n	Email*\n\n	 \n\n\n	Which Learning Lab?\n\n(enter Title/Date Check the calendar of events here )\n	 \n\n\n	Any Comments\n\n	 \n\n\n	*Required items\n	 \n	 Please tick to consent to send this information to us (Required for GDPR)*.\nTick to sign up for Guest Membership so you receive our Newsletter - Optional).\nFor further details\, please read our Privacy Policy here\n	 \n	You should receive a thank you email from us after clicking send.
