Training courses
Working with the ‘Bully’
This course, initially developed for the 2007 National Workshop of the Association for Counselling at Work, now BACP Workplace, has been well received by course participants and has been featured in the Counselling at Work Journal for Winter 2007/8 click to read the article - Bullying
It focusses on working with those who are accused of bad workplace behaviours rather than maintaining the current approach of working with the recipients.
This is what one participant wrote about the course.
“Damian challenged us to visit and re-visit some of our beliefs and thoughts about ‘bullies’ and victims and to explore stereotypes and traditional ways of dealing with each. (He) skilfully encouraged the participants of this workshop to explore their own feelings around bullying, being bullied and working with bullies and in a way turned the tables on the received wisdom of current practice. A simple but effective approach … was to focus on the problem not the personalities and support and engage both parties… [Sarah Prince in Counselling at Work, Winter 2007/8 Pg 16/17)
