SubjectProfessional Skills
DescriptionWe all deserve to feel safe, respected and valued at work. Recognising and responding to issues that undermine a culture of belonging and psychological safety is an important part of our training as healthcare professionals and leaders. Our personal experiences of diversity training have been that it is not specific to the dynamics of NHS workplaces. We recognise that challenging authority is difficult, but can be especially so when that authority can have very real impacts on training and opportunities.
Additional information

This course will offer a chance to reflect on your workplace culture. We will discuss challenging scenarios from real life experience in a supportive environment. You will have the opportunity to share scenarios that you have witnessed, for example when you have heard a micro-aggression or felt uncomfortable challenging someone in the workplace. We will discuss these scenarios in small groups and practice how to apply a structure for how to challenge injustice. You will have the opportunity to act out different ways of approaching these scenarios with our talented actor, if you wish. This allows you to practice your skills within a safe and supportive environment. A variety of scenarios will be discussed providing all attendees with the opportunity to apply the structure to different situations.

Some feedback from previous courses:

“Incredibly valuable and helpful both doing the scenarios and watching them.”

“I am so much more equipped to hold people accountable/challenge people now.”

“Such a great course, will 100% recommend!”
