Safeguarding Workshop - Hope in the Dark: Courage and Compassion for Managers
In this workshop for managers Michael West will address four key areas. First, the importance of sustaining compassionate leadership in the context of unprecedented pressures. Second, how to create (really) effective team working to ensure effectiveness of our services and the well being of staff. Third he will emphasise the importance of managers courageously working together to influence upwards across public services in South Yorkshire to ensure we are shaping positive change for the future. Finally, having the courage to practise the hard stuff of self-compassion is vital and a core challenge to us all.
