These three 90’ workshops will help you identify how to influence a professional experience at work.  Defining working relationships, setting and managing expectations, negotiation and feedback, creating positive endings and new potential.  This workshop aims to help you define your professional practice, which when experienced will influence others around you and inform a better professional experience. 

Sessions will play out as follows:  

  • Coming together - a look the week ahead and a discussion on the individual needs of the group.
  • Holding confidence: working in an arena that feels known but uncertain, dealing with and working through feelings of anxiety permeating the workplace
  • Negotiation: empathy vs conflict
  • Giving feedback: integrating this practice into your management of others, requesting on your own behalf and also using it as a tool to help develop others based on your knowledge and expertise
  • Endings: how to end positively and stay connected in these remote times.

This course is intended for those working in Unscripted TV and suitable for all grades above runner.
