Lunchtime Learning - Good Conversations in Employability – An Introduction
Created: 22/09/2020, Updated: 28/09/2020FVA lunchtime learning sessions are aimed at raising the skills and capacities of local third sector providers interested in improving or enhancing their provision in Fife.
Delivered by Alison Linyard (NHS Fife) and Laura Millar (Fife Gingerbread)
A key message from our conversations with people who use employment services is ‘don’t try to fix me!’. People valued being able to find their own voice, identify existing strengths, and make their own journey – with all the learning and confidence that comes with that.
At this lunchtime learning session participants will hear about the key elements involved in Good Conversations training in Fife and how it can be valuable in the context of employment support.
Good Conversations teaches a core set of skills which enable staff and managers to focus their conversations on what matters most to people and what they want to achieve from support. The course explores how to harness the role of the person, their strengths, social networks and community supports, with a particular focus on supporting people living complex and challenged lives.
