Raising the Bar Corporate Training Services : New Professional Development Courses

NORTH SYDNEY, Australia - July 25, 2013 - PRLog -- Expanding upon its extensive experience as a premier software applications training company, RtB is also helping clients address productivity issues beyond the scope of their applications’ software.

Conflict within a group and inefficient use of employee time are the subtle thieves of an organisation’s efficiency, stunting productivity and undermining group cohesion.

Sensitive to its clients’ needs in the arena of personal skills enhancement, RtB has tapped into its extensive experience in delivering highly effective results and is now delivering new sets of skills for their clients to benefit from. Maintaining the small group dynamics that RtB are often recognised for, they have designed, developed and are delivering, short professional development courses that are focused, effective and very affordable.

The transition has been seamless as RtB’s latest courses allow us to draw upon the decades of expertise that many of our existing training consultants already possess. This ensures the same quality and customer service that sets ‘Raising the Bar’ apart.

Conflict Resolution – Dealing with Difficult People

Offered as an intensive, one-day course, Conflict Resolution begins by showing how our own perceptions and behaviours can affect others.  It’s an especially useful course for those who often avoid people they find difficult, antagonistic or just different rather than working to resolve disunity, they ignore conflicts and their source, allowing anger to build and paving the way for increasing animosity and friction. Learning to recognise their attitudes and responses when confronted with conflict, participants then learn fresh perspectives and new techniques for coping with difficult situations and people.  The Conflict Resolution course moves through intermediary stages from recognition of conflict to resolution.

Attending this course you will learn to understand conflict by identifying what conflict is and the many types of conflict that exist. You will learn to understand people a whole lot better through application of a methodology termed the ‘Johari Window’

Learn the role of communication in resolving conflict and about the barriers that can surround it. Gain knowledge of how to form a strategy to facilitate and resolve conflict, understand and manage anger, learn to deal with other people’s anger and gain some tips on how to de-stress.
