Managers Workshop

Course Overview

We always like to begin the roll out of CALM at a new organisation with a manager’s workshop. The workshop will explore the relationship and role of CALM in your organisation, review expectations and responsibilities, and explain why we teach what we teach.

A day or half-day event, on-site or online, exploring key legislation and guidance, learning from enquiries, exploring external and internal challenges to best practice, professional frameworks, workforce wellbeing and the business case for CALM – all invaluable in preparing managers for implementing CALM in their services and supporting staff as they begin their journey through CALM.

TESTIMONIALS

What Others Say

” As a unit manager I was really pleased that I had the opportunity to attend a CALM Managers Workshop before my staff attended the CALM training. It prepared me effectively and enabled me to respond appropriately to a suddenly very knowledgeable, empowered, enthused group of staff. Had I not attended in advance I think I may have dampened their enthusiasm for change without realising. “

” As a result of attending I now feel that I have developed my knowledge and understanding of key guidance and best practice in this area of practice. I can see where we fall short and can do better – I will certainly be making some changes to systems and practice on my return. “
