Insights
Discovery System
-
How can you help your
employees understand themselves better,
and understand and appreciate the differences in
others?
- How can you build
confidents in your employees and teams?
- Imagine if you could find
an engaging and practical way to help
individuals develop themselves.
- What if you could
transform the way you do business?
Rick will provide an overview of the
and it's application within organizations.
During this engaging and
interactive session, Rick will
provide an overview of the
Insights Discovery
System™.
You
will learn just how
Insights Discovery can assist you, personally, to
become truly self aware. As a fun and meaningful
component of the Insights Learning and Development’s
learning solution, Insights Discovery is the first
step on a path for individual, team and
organizational transformation.
Using a blended
learning approach, participants will be able to
identify how Insights can help improve effectiveness
in the five key areas of Individual, Team,
Organization, Sales, and Leadership.
Underpinning
Insights learning solutions are two unique and
complimentary systems, Discovery and Navigator,
which measure preference and capability. With
foundations in the work of Carl Jung, Discovery
helps individuals better understand themselves and
others, enabling more effective interactions and
organizational growth. Navigator is a powerful
capability-based system which
enables individuals, teams and organizations to
measure performance against key indicators and to
track and monitor progress and development over
time.
Join us as we
explore Insights Discovery at an individual level
and make connections to the applicability in your
own, unique workplace context.

Tuesday, June 10, 2008

Description:
This session will be a highly interactive exploration of
the ways in which trainers/facilitators/instructional

using pictures or images in their games, simulations
and other performance management interventions;
- Identify five potential
circumstances in which to use pictures/photos in
their work;
- Access at least three
different sources of pictures/images to use in their
own work;

reasons why a facilitator must remain open and
flexible when using pictures and images.

Over
the Edge: Organizational Coaching for Change
Presenter: Kim White
Date: Postponed, stay tuned for a new date! |
Crossing the great divide
between what is known and what is new is a constant
in today’s changing environment. As organizations
adapt to emerging trends, we too must adjust our
perception of how we see ourselves in this new
structure. In addition, as sponsors or agents of
change we are often tasked with coaching others
“over the edge” in order to help them to see the new
horizon.
Organizational and Relationship Systems Coaching
combines the wisdom of Systems Theory, Process Work,
empirical relationship research, interest-based
bargaining, Taoism, and Co-active Coaching and
offers individuals and practitioner of change a new
model of identifying and addressing resistance.
This interact and highly
engaging presentation will provide you with a model
for understanding change resistance and offer you
the opportunity to practice coaching yourself or
others through new challenges of awareness.
Kim White has worked in the conflict
resolution field at the Justice Institute and as
a private consultant for many years. For
seven years Kim led the Respectful Workplace
program at BC Hydro where she coached
individuals and teams in conflict and assisted
professionals and leaders in creating healthy
and respectful workplaces.
She has provided services to local, provincial
and federal government agencies, private sector
organizations both locally and internationally
including Accenture, Alcan, Island Tug and
Barge, The Justice Institute of B. C. and the
Oppenheimer Food Group. Her current coaching
practice includes mid and senior level managers
adapting to organizational change who are
required to enhance their leadership skills.
Kim
is a passionate and fun facilitator. She has a
B.A. in Psychology, is a M.A. (cand.) - Adult
Behavioural Science (Counseling) Cert. Con Res.
and is a Certified Professional Co-Active Coach
(CPCC).
