for you! |
As Australia’s largest and preferred supplier
of counselling education, the Institute has known for
some time about the benefit of applying higher level
communication and counselling skills to workplaces.
In today’s business world, business leaders and
management have a focus upon improving productivity
and efficiency to continually improve business performance
and exceed market demands. With all workplaces being
comprised of a social organisation that includes all
employees, productivity and efficiency achieved in the
workplace is often influenced by the motivation, work
practices and efficiency of work teams and their employees.
It is obvious that the culture of the social organisation
in the workplace directly affects the productivity of
the workplace.
By positively influencing the social organisation by
applying high level communication and counselling skills,
the productivity and efficiency of work teams can be
improved. The Institute’s Corporate Training Division
has been established to offer a program to companies
and businesses called Counselling for the Workplace.
The objective of the program is to assist business,
line and human resources managers and staff with acquiring
the know-how and practical skills to utilise their most
valuable resource to its complete potential: employees.
At the Institute, we call this ‘social productivity’.
The Corporate Training Division’s Counselling
for the Workplace Program includes such topics as:
- Interpersonal skills
- Solving problems
- Developing assertiveness
- Interview skills
- Enhancing workplace communication
- Resolving workplace conflicts
- Facilitating groups
These topics have been carefully selected and tailored
from the Institute’s acclaimed and nationally
recognised training qualification, Diploma of Professional
Counselling. The Program teaches participants the acquisition
and use of communication and counselling skills effectively
in the workplace and focuses on the application of these
skills to contemporary workplace situations. The Program
can be undertaken on an individual or group basis and
consists of two three-hour sessions.
