The session also focuses on what motivates good people to behave in inappropriate ways and provides specific strategies to identify and overcome biases, improve communication and change behaviours.

Throughout the session, real-life examples and scenarios from the public sector are utilised to highlight inappropriate behaviours and the potential consequences of non-compliance with the Code.  This session is often delivered in combination with Employee Responsibilities and Ethics.

This session educates your employees on how to abide by your organisation’s ethical guidelines with every interaction and transaction.  Employees learn the importance of recognising potential conflicts of interest, the need to protect organisational assets, maintain confidentiality, protect private information and data and their responsibilities on receiving gifts.

The session is designed as an employee focused, interactive course that teaches your employees how to mitigate legal and financial risks through local government real-life examples and ethically-challenging scenarios.  This session is often delivered in combination with Code of Conduct.

Effective communication forms the basis of successful relationships but involves more than speaking or listening well.  To communicate effectively, requires a person to adapt their response in relation to particular people and situations and this requires a willingness to develop self awareness, manage assumptions and ask open and meaningful questions. 

This session equips participants with the skills to communicate with confidence and improve workplace relationships through an increased understanding of self and others.  Participants have the opportunity to plan and practice having successful conversations.

One of the greatest challenges a manager has – is moving his/her team through the various team development stages.  If a manager has no, or little experience of teams and team dynamics, then taking over a team and leading them, can be a very stress experience (for everyone).

In this workshop, your team will be guided through models and activities that highlight how the elements of emotional intelligence cultivate cooperation and trust; the stages a team goes through and the steps to take at each stage; how to ensure that the team has embedded the essential elements to become a high performing team; and the role the leader plays in creating a well-integrated and high performing team.
