I worked in the public, humanitarian and private sector in leadership, well-being and psychology. For over 30 years. I have learned that each organisation strives for decency but there are always toxic elements. These drain people’s energy, motivation and decency.
The best way to ensure decency in leadership and organisations is to work collaboratively in the workplace. We then free ourselves to be our best, looking after our self care and well-being. And we must tackle and address the negativity and toxicity.
We need to pause and reflect on the greater purpose of working to leave a good enough legacy for the next generation. Isn’t that our obligation?
I have learned, over the years, that I am fallible and will make mistakes and errors. That sometimes, I err on the negative side. So I am a work in progress, as we all are.
I hope you enjoy the books. Many have praised them, for which I am grateful.
“Brilliant” Five stars. Anthony Manning “These books are great. They’re packed full of interesting and pertinent ideas - and exercises to help us explore how the topic in question plays out in our own thinking and behaviour. “Decency” might at first sound like an old-fashioned concept - but it is all the more vital in our complex, fast-paced and ever-changing world of work. It’s the least we can expect of ourselves and each other, if the vital relationships upon which organisations’ endeavours succeed, or fail, are to thrive. It’s also what we should expect from our leaders (in all fields), who should aspire to be role models of truly people-centred behaviour, rather than primarily focused on goals and targets.” David Love.
Thank you
When it comes to adults with challenging behaviours, the focus is often on trying to fix or change the behaviour rather than trying to understand the person themselves. This revised manual sets out a new person-centred approach which concentrates on understanding the individual and the reasons behind their behaviours to move towards a workable resolution.
Aimed at professionals working with adults with challenging behaviours, the book recognises that the behaviour itself can be unsettling even for experienced practitioners. But author Anna Eliatamby clearly explains why empathy and understanding is vital when it comes to helping people with mental health issues and challenging behaviours.
The manual's approach is simple to follow, incorporating a wealth of resources to help professionals question what kind of intervention, if any, may be necessary. It also includes a methodology for examining an individual's background and personal circumstances to gain a deep understanding of why they behave the way they do and what internal or external triggers may provoke distress and other reactions.
From Challenging Behaviours to Distress Factors and Reactions (2nd Edition) examines a number of topics in detail including autism, depression, collective leadership and the psychology of respect, as well as happiness and general wellbeing.
This manual is a must-read for any professional who wants to take a more human approach to supporting people who may be experiencing difficulties in their lives.
