How to Deal with Angry and Demanding People

9am to 3pm, Thursday 13th Nov. 2008 - Rydges Hotel, Vancouver Room, 205 Bell Street, Preston, Melbourne

It seems wherever there are people, there are challenging relationships. But there are some roles, eg. youth workers, that deal with more than their fair share of difficult people.

While we would like to say goodbye to some of these people, the majority we have to continue working with and keep on-side.

In this fun and practical seminar, you will learn how to:

  1. Defuse the strong emotions of others in three easy steps
  2. Say "No" to people with unreasonable demands AND keep them on-side
  3. Give feedback well to people whose behaviour you can no longer ignore
  4. Deal well with people who are incapable of change
  5. Be less affected by the aggression of others

Engage and Motivate Difficult Clients

9am to 3pm, Friday 14th Nov. 2008 - Rydges Hotel, Vancouver Room, 205 Bell Street, Preston, Melbourne

Working as a youth worker can be very challenging work. Some young people will not see their obviously problematic behaviour as a problem at all and others will be working very hard against their own best interests. Even those who do see the need for change, often struggle with maintaining their motivation and staying on track.

In this seminar for youth workers and other helping professionals, you will learn how to:

  1. Transform a resistant young person into someone who is keen & motivated to help themselves
  2. Get young people who are reluctant to talk convincing you of the reasons they need to change
  3. Successfully apply client strengths to their problem behaviour or situation
  4. Help young people maintain their motivation after setbacks and refine their plan for change
  5. Significantly improve outcomes with only minor adjustments to your approach
