SUMMARY:How to bring fresh air to toxic situations
DESCRIPTION:Humans are hardwired to connect to each other. And sometimes the desire for connection can lead to drama as our fears create defences. It’s an art form to be able to not have your own fears triggered in toxic situations. This talk leans into human psychology and some spiritual (not religious) principles to support how we change toxic spaces and group dynamics.

SUMMARY:Creating a Strategic Vision for Shaping the Future
DESCRIPTION:A Parish\, Town\, or Community Council strategy should be aspirational\, but it can be inspirational too. \nWhen a team and a town understand the values of the council we can make powerful collaborations. \nThe Council strategy is key to this\, it needs to be a developing living document. In addition it needs to have feelings\, in the form of values. \nFinding out what people care about and how those values can become pillars that pin the strategy together\, build teamwork plans and form the council’s unique brand. \nA strategy isn’t a document that sits on a shelf gathering dust whilst you get on with other things. It is the backbone of the organisation that focuses all projects and staff’s way of thinking\, creating the council’s voice in every conversation. Pulling councillors and officers together as one and who knows\, maybe the whole town can have a mission to get behind. \nIn this webinar\, Becky will provide you with information and ideas to help you write your own council strategy.

SUMMARY:Civility and respect – Understanding psychopathic and narcissistic behaviour
DESCRIPTION:Both psychopathic and narcissistic people generally lack empathy and tend to have unrealistically high opinions of themselves. They often exploit and manipulate others\, and can be hard to spot as they can also be superficially charming. They are also attracted to roles of power and are often found in high leadership positions such as company CEOs and in political roles. \nIn this webinar\, we learn how to spot them and also how to monitor your own behaviour to lessen their impact on you and your organisation. \nEach of the webinars will give real situation scenarios and what to do in each of them\, including: \n\nMeetings\nCouncillors with Councillors\nDealing with members of the public who may be vexatious\nStaff having issues with other staff

SUMMARY:How to bring fresh air to toxic situations
DESCRIPTION:Humans are hardwired to connect to each other. And sometimes the desire for connection can lead to drama as our fears create defences. It’s an art form to be able to not have your own fears triggered in toxic situations. This talk leans into human psychology and some spiritual (not religious) principles to support how we change toxic spaces and group dynamics.

SUMMARY:Creating a Strategic Vision for Shaping the Future
DESCRIPTION:A Parish\, Town\, or Community Council strategy should be aspirational\, but it can be inspirational too. \nWhen a team and a town understand the values of the council we can make powerful collaborations. \nThe Council strategy is key to this\, it needs to be a developing living document. In addition it needs to have feelings\, in the form of values. \nFinding out what people care about and how those values can become pillars that pin the strategy together\, build teamwork plans and form the council’s unique brand. \nA strategy isn’t a document that sits on a shelf gathering dust whilst you get on with other things. It is the backbone of the organisation that focuses all projects and staff’s way of thinking\, creating the council’s voice in every conversation. Pulling councillors and officers together as one and who knows\, maybe the whole town can have a mission to get behind. \nIn this webinar\, Becky will provide you with information and ideas to help you write your own council strategy.
