The Road to Redemption: Overcoming Life’s Detours, Obstacles, and Challenges

Speaker: Lucinda Cross
October 17

We’ve all been there at that make it or break it moment in our lives. That moment where it seems as if time stops and the world is spinning, but you are not moving.

You have a decision to make. You have an obstacle in front of you that you did not expect or did not suspect it to be.

Maybe you haven’t attained the success you feel your hard work should have brought you by now or maybe you feel you have the talent to be all that you can be, be the expert in your field, but you just can’t seem to put that talent or those skills into position to maximize the moment.

Maybe you feel your potential or this gift you have just isn’t being tapped and you have no clue what’s missing or what’s holding you back.

If this resonates, this is the webinar for you.

In this webinar you will learn how to bring out your best, no matter what has happened in the past, or what you are doing now.

You will learn to overcome obstacles in 5 major areas:

  • Focus
  • Determination
  • Action

December 12

Date: Thursday, December 12th

Time: 11:30 am – 12:30 pm Central Time

Description:

Whatever you are doing right now is determined by the way you are thinking.

Whatever emotions you feel are influenced by your thinking.

Whatever you want – all your desires – are determined by your thinking.

If your thinking is overly pessimistic, it will deny you due recognition of the many things in which you should properly rejoice.

In this webinar you will learn the tools the best thinkers use in their work and personal lives.

You will learn how to implement these qualities of the best thinkers:

  • How to reflect on your thinking.
  • How to be more purposeful.

Our unconscious mind is amazing. It can process much more information than our conscious mind.

Mental Monsters: How to Overcome Emotions and Mindsets that Sabotage Team Trust and Personal Well-Being

Speaker: Josh Dye
June 6

Most have heard of IQ and EQ (emotional intelligence) and how they contribute to our overall potential.

A new kind of intelligence, Positive Intelligence (PQ) is on the rise. Positive Intelligence (PQ) helps us maximize our potential. 

However, according to the research of Shirzad Chamine, 80% of all teams operate below a critical Positive Intelligence level, and fall short of achieving their true potential for success and happiness.

Why? Mental Saboteurs.

Saboteurs are the voices in our head that generate negative emotions in the way we handle life’s everyday challenges. 

They represent automated patterns in our minds for how to think, feel, and respond. They cause stress, anxiety, self-doubt, frustration, restlessness, and unhappiness. They sabotage our performance, wellbeing, and relationships.

In this training you will learn:

  • The 10 saboteurs and how they impact performance.
  • How to identify and overcome your top mental saboteurs.
  • How to increase your Positive Intelligence (PQ).
  • How to apply PQ tools and techniques to increase performance and fulfillment.

Upstream Thinking: How to Solve Problems Before They Happen

For example:

  • Clients will frequently have questions.
  • It is common for clients to get confused.
  • Some people will always show up late.
  • It’s normal to scramble to meet a project deadline.

What if it didn’t have to be this way?

Well, it doesn’t. Upstream thinking can solve a lot of our annoying, costly probems before they happen!

In this training we will learn:

  • Barriers to Upstream thinking.
  • How to identify if a problem has an upstream cause.
  • Questions to ask to when solving a problem with an upstream cause.
  • How to use second order thinking to avoid unintended consequences when solving problems.
  • How to build systems to solve problems before they start.

Conflict Resolution Frameworks: Strategies & Tactics to Resolve Conflict Personally & Professionally

Speaker: Josh Dye
October 3

Kwame Christian says a conflict is A negotiation with attitude.

Conflict is a regular part of our lives. Whether it is a disagreement with a co-worker, client, family member or friend, we need tools that help us resolve important issues that are holding us back.

For many of us, conflict is uncomfortable. We would rather avoid it than confront it. We also struggle to understand how to resolve conflicts fairly.

Following a conflict resolution process, or framework, helps a lot. Instead of just winging it, we can follow research-driven and time tested best practices.

In this training you will learn the different conflict styles that people have, and we will review conflict resolution frameworks created by three experts:

  • Lisa Gates’s Resolution Roadmap
  • Kwame Christian’s Compassionate Curiosity
  • Jennifer Beer and Caroline Packard’s Mediator’s Handbook, which forms the foundation of the process professional mediators use at Conflict Resolution Centers around the country.

Let’s get ready to resolve conflicts together!

About Convene Training

Convene Training was founded by Josh Dye, MPNA and offers training to government, nonprofit, contracted case management, and health and human services professionals that help other people.

While training at conferences across the country for the past 15 years, Josh noticed two big problems plaguing the sector.1. High rates of stress, burnout and staff turnover.

2. Budgets that severely limit access to high-quality training for staff. Many agencies can only afford to train a small portion of their people, leaving many without the learning opportunities they need to be successful and feel supported by their employers.

The Convene Training subscription model was launced in 2017 to solve these problems and offers affordable training opportunities with CEUs each year.
