Solution-focused management offers a powerful approach to managing people that is simple and eminently practical and effective in its use.
The core principles of solution-focused management are: simplicity, co-operation and an emphasis on valuing present personnel’s strengths and resources. These principles, combined with its practical techniques, make solution-focused management a cost effective and beneficial approach to take.
A problem focus in the workplace is time consuming and demotivating whereas solution-focused discovery invites us to find and do things that work quickly and well and to stop continually doing what isn’t working. This makes it both time-efficient and motivating.
This two day course is a development of our established Managing People course. It is aimed at individuals responsible for managing staff and volunteers for the first time and for existing managers who wish to refresh their skills.

The Surkhet – Plymouth Global Xchange programme comes to an end on Friday 30th March 2012, and the team leaves the Plymouth community a few days before this for the final debrief.
To mark the end of our time in Plymouth, the team is hosting a community farewell event at Devonport Guildhall on Thursday 22nd March 2012, 5-7pm.
This will take a similar format to the recent welcome event, with speeches, dances, perhaps one or two other attractions, and light refreshments (this time, by popular demand, to include some Nepali fare).
If you’d like to come, please inform Yogesh Gyawali or Marc Gardiner,
Programme Supervisors, on 01752 395131 / yogesh.gyawali@vsoint.org /marc@zebra.coop

Tired of getting stuck looking at the problem? This two-day course will leave you thinking and working in a powerful new way. It may change your life.
The ideas, values and skills of solution-focused communication are helpful to anyone who works with people: the focus moves away from the problem towards preferred futures, progress already made, strengths and possibilities. The power of this approach has long been evidenced in helping services, community work and schools, but is becoming recognised also in staff / human resource management and coaching, and organisational development.
This course offers new communication skills and promotes personal development, and will be useful to anyone who works with people – particularly those who support others through problems (e.g. workers in social care and housing support settings, mental health workers, community workers and health staff) and staff / team / organisation managers etc.
