Moreno Understanding People: professional development courses, leadership and therapy training programs.

Moreno offers a range of programs focused on increasing performance through a better understanding of people. Our Leadership training programs take a unique look at leadership, focusing on the relationships that the leader must create, engage in and manage suitable for managers, leaders, community developers and others. For people who work with people our therapy training programs cover the intricacies of group work, action methods and a range of creative therapeutic tools.

Understanding People is key whether you are leading people, directing people, collaborating with people, motivating people, co-ordinating people,  or working with people towards a therapeutic end. Training with Moreno is focused on acquiring the skills necessary to understand people, in all their uniqueness.

Upcoming Events & Workshops:

 

When Good Groups Go Bad!

A course for Trainers, Facilitators and Group Leaders. This workshop is designed for people who work with groups as a part of their everyday routine. People who run groups all have “those moments” or “those clients” or “those situations” where they nearly come undone. Sometimes these micro-traumas build up and make work highly stressful or certain groups almost impossible to work with.

At Moreno we are regularly working with people who are stumped by some of their clients behaviour: in training groups; in meetings; in facilitation sessions. Sometimes these professionals are profoundly effected by these moments and situations. This workshop is designed to fortify and reignite group practitioners so that they can learn from those moments, learn from the wisdom of their colleagues and be easily prepared for them in their futures.

This program is designed for you to explore what you could have done and what you might do next time and pick apart what went wrong in a fearless and forward looking manner. This workshop will be experientially based and work from individual’s case study experiences. We will use simulations and well developed role plays to work through a variety of situations as determined by the group’s participants.

Leadership - It's about people

You don’t know what you don’t know, and this can hurt you, your credibility and your business. Is it your staff’s responsibility to understand you? Do they always get it right?

The meaning of communication is in the message received. Your job as a leader is to deliver your message in a way that is not just understood, but in a way that gets the intended response.

Make sure your meaning is being heard, be confident that your communication ensures understanding.

This workshop works exclusively with the area of knowing how you are seen heard and experienced. You could call this ‘feedback’ but in this workshop you will largely be able to work it out for yourself. Often there are aspects of our leadership that fall into an area we could call “our blind spot.” A blind spot is simply how others see you that you are unaware of. This is definitely in the area of “you don’t know what you don’t know.”

There is a common a modern saying that goes “What others think of you is none of your business.” This may be true when sitting in church. It may be true when sitting on a plane. It may even be true when walking down the street. But it is never ever true when working as a leader.

You need to know how you are seen and experienced otherwise you wont know if your message is getting through. You wont know if anyone has actually and for real, understood you.

Learn the essential tools for:

  • checking your understanding of others,

  • checking your understanding of yourself,

  • developing ways of knowing how you are seen

  • developing confidence in how you are impacting others

  • be able to plan your communications rather than leave it in the lap of the gods.
