Description
Of Workshops
Human Interaction -
An opportunity to learn about yourself, how your behavior impacts others,
and how to function more effectively in a group and interpersonal
situations. The competencies developed are those associated with what has
been called emotional intelligence. A key element of the program is the
use of the T-Group
method
which facilitates learning by bringing together a small group of people
for the express purpose of studying their own behavior when they interact
within a small group. The T-group method provides little structure or
direction from the trainers. The lack of a given structure allows
participants to learn about their own patterns of behavior when there is a
need for them to accept responsibility for a group's life and work. The training staff works to help participants learn
from their own experience. The Human Interaction Workshop is the required
prerequisite training for most other LTI events. This is a beginning point
for learning core skills that are used and build on in other events.
Why
Human Relations Training is Needed - Loren Mead
Group Development -
This workshop focuses on understanding and effectively sharing leadership
in groups and teams. Attention is given to developing an awareness of
group development and dynamics, balancing task and relationship issues,
establishing group norms. Group facilitation skills training is part of
the event. Prerequisite Training Required: Human Interaction or conflict
management with LTI or
another approved group
Design Skills -
Develop skills that can improve the quality of meetings, education, and
programs; that increase "ownership", energy and excitement.
Increase your ability to design more experiential and participatory
events. Prerequisite Training Required: Human Interaction or conflict
management with LTI or
another approved group.
Consultation Skills -
For those in consulting or other third party roles This event focuses on
skills for third party intervention, e.g., steps in the consulting
process; consulting style, ethics, needs, dilemmas, dynamics; the ability
to form authentic helping relationships; becoming more comfortable with
the use of "self" in consulting.
Prerequisite
- Participants must have completed Human Interaction or Conflict
Management and one other weeklong workshop such as Group
Development or Design Skills with LTI or another agency; or have completed
a human interaction or conflict management workshop and
CDI
- Church Development Institute
Conflict
Management - This workshop will offer special attention to the
"use of self" in a conflict. The goal is to increase your
awareness of what is happening to you in a conflict, help you to identify
your blindspots, and to increase the range of options you have for
effective behavior. We will begin with a couple of days of
T-group
work. There will also be opportunities for self assessment and feedback
from other participants and trainers. In addition to the emphases on the
"use of self" you will learn conflict management skills, methods
and theory for use in groups and organizations. This event meet the
perquisite requirement for more advanced workshops. Please note - this
event is longer than most LTI workshops.
Arrange
for workshops in your region
LTI
will come to your region and offer a series of workshops in collaboration
with a diocese, group of parishes, or other organization.
Your
organization will be asked to recruit enough participants to make it
possible to conduct the workshops. LTI will also invite people from other
regions to participate. You will be asked to do the initial logistical
work of arranging for a training location and providing a contact person
to work in partnership with the LTI workshop coordinator. You may also be
asked to provide a one time underwriting grant to LTI. The size of the
grant depends on your success in the recruiting effort. It usually runs in
the range of $1,000 - 3,000
LTI
will provide the training staff, materials and manage all the follow up
work with the training location.
