Workplace stress has a negative effect on productivity and morale. Vibrant’s Staying in Balance workshop will help participants gain valuable skills and techniques for stress reduction and burnout prevention. The training also provides supervisors and other leaders with a long-range approach to addressing workplace stress.
We spend a third of our life at work and yet workplace relationships are the most neglected. Research shows that investing in our relationships at work increases an overall sense of well-being, belonging, and improves teamwork. All of these are important elements to prevent burnout, especially in the human services sector, where workers are constantly exposed to others' experiences of trauma and adversity. So why do we neglect these workplace relationships? In some cases, it's because the pace of the outcomes driven workplaces only leaves time for transactional interactions between peers. In this workshop, we’ll identify some of the barriers to creating inclusive culture. Case studies from Create Forward’s work in cultivating Thriving Cultures will offer practical strategies for strengthening community, connection, and belonging at work.
Supervisors across human service settings face many challenges in a changing and dynamic system of care. As the key interface between organizational policies and practices and direct service professionals, supervisors wear many hats and struggle to balance their complex roles designed to promote the mission of the organization and support the success and compassion satisfaction of their supervisees.
This workshop is designed to provide supervisors with practical and concrete approaches to support their supervisees by: 1) providing supportive and reflective supervision, 2) supporting professional development, 3) managing performance difficulties requiring “courageous conversations”, 4) managing levels of emotional stress and 5) creating a trusting and physically, psychologically and culturally safe work environment that collectively increases compassion satisfaction and workforce retention.
