Wellbeing in the Workplace: Emotions, Behaviour and Communication

This half-day CPD course is designed to improve staff wellbeing. It improves mental and physiological health through the introduction of practices which allow improved emotional and behavioural regulation. Team working skills are improved through the exploration of compassionate communication in group settings.

This course draws on key elements from our Compassionate Mind Training for Teachers, Staff and Educators (CMT-TSE) programme and our Compassionate Compassionate Communication - Further and Higher Education (CC-FE/HE) programme, both of which have been shown to impact wellbeing and emotion regulation and improve group work.

• Theory of emotions and how emotions can be understood in the broader sense of “drive”, “threat” and “soothing” motivation systems
• Exploration of our “tricky brains” and how this impacts our threat, drive and soothing systems
• Practices that can be used to help regulate emotions and down-regulate stress, threat and anxiety
• Understanding the motives and emotions underlying various communication styles
• Exploration of communication techniques to support effective communication across employment situations
