Presented by Kerry Fallon Horgan, Managing Partner, Flexibility At Work,

CEO Rob Davidson comments on the "Creating Flexible Workplaces" workshop on this video clip

Contact Flexibility At Work on Tel: 612 9402 4741 for the "Creating Flexible Workplaces & Getting Balanced Workshop" to be delivered in your workplace.

Why flexibility?

The ageing population, globalisation, the 24/7 economy and differing workplace expectations from Gen X and Y’s is putting the heat on organisations to not just talk about work life balance but to actually make it work. There is still a gap between the rhetoric and the reality for many employees and as a result employers are loosing huge pools of talent and irreplaceable corporate knowledge.

The benefits of well managed flexible work practices include higher levels of commitment, retention and productivity for employers as well as greater work and life satisfaction and wellbeing for employees. Solutions are now needed to deal with the challenges that prevent worklife balance being a reality for so many.

These solutions include:

What does this workshop provide?

In this innovative one-day workshop participants will discover effective personal and organisational strategies for implementing and maintaining successful work/life initiatives. Kerry will outline the crucial steps that need to be taken at both an organisational and individual level and the why, what and how of flexible workplaces will be explored. The workshop includes the application of an award winning coaching tool, The Play of Life.

You will learn:

• Why individuals are seeking greater work/life balance,
• What's in it for organisations to support this,
• How to develop effective work/life plans,
• The personal and organisational challenges that need to be addressed,
• Leading edge tools for dealing with personal and organisational barriers,
• A step-by-step approach to implementing sustainable flexible work practices,
• Case studies of award winning organisations and their unique health and wellbeing programs,
• Strategies that can be implemented for success with work/life balance,
• Management practices that inhibit and enhance working flexibly
• Effective strategies for preventing and managing stress and burnout.

What participants thought of the coaching:

"I value the methodology and your facilitation. This will help to build a more solid foundation for our team journey.."
- HR Manager, AMP

"Kerry is, in my opinion, a highly talented and very competent coach. She successfully manages to combine the training or encouragement of the individual with a genuine care for the person. This is what makes her so effective in her delivery of service."
-Project Director, Orgdesign, Sydney, Australia

"Kerry is an excellent coach who displays empathy and compassion. She was able to help me move on in areas of my life that had become ‘stuck’. She is very non-judgemental which allowed me to personally grow through the Play of Life. The Play of Life is an amazing tool that enabled me to see my ‘blindspots’ very clearly and then decide on a plan of action. It is a tool that brings hope into a person’s life."
-Coaching and Training Specialist, Sydney. Australia

"Kerry, this is all so exciting and inspiring! Our coaching session was just brilliant and I am amazed at the subtlety and power of the process. I can feel that there has been a shift, at a core level. Your wonderful, gentle way together with the ‘tool’ facilitated me ‘seeing’ my future. Being able to experience that, and connect with that vision, has cleared that block that was there previously. WOW! this is exciting stuff! Thank you so much. I am so looking forward to our next session."
-Director, All Money Matters Pty Ltd

"The coaching sessions were always positive, systematic and encouraging. The approach enables me to see what can be achieved by reflection on past positions. The visual imaging is very powerful. Understanding myself - not the problem, helped me move forward"
Manager. Chevron

" Kerry is a beautiful director, directing with compassion, patience and warmth. Kerry has directed me through many enactments now, all with a rewarding result In one session in particular as soon as I put out that I wanted to deal with the compulsive area of my life( Of which I have been so ashamed and not wanted to admit to anyone) I could sense enormous resistance which manifested itself in being totally sceptical of the "Play of Life" and the "b----y little people". From feeling totally stuck she directed me through to the most exquisite result for my spiritual and mental healing and helped me to a new level of being from seeing the world from the half empty cup to seeing it from the perspective of a full cup. It has also helped me operate from my heart as well as my head without as much fear."
-G Mann

"Kerry's style and delivery was very good. The development of the models taking us from stressed situations to the ideal was a valuable learning experience. There was a real bonus in the insights I was given into the situations confronting my peers durnig the workshop"
Senior Manager. Dyno Nobel Asia Pacific Ltd

"I have found the skills I have learned during our sessions very useful to managing the workload and stresses that come with it. Each session was well planned and added value to my working and personal life."
- National Sales Manager, Galderma

"Helped shift mindset from old behaviours to a new way of 'being', in such a short space of time."
- ANZ Bank

"After returning to work in the corporate world post-maternity leave in a part time capacity, I have used personal coaching to help achieve some much needed work-life balance. Specifically this process has helped to identify my personal work-life goals and then develop practical strategies to achieve them. After only a few sessions I started to see some clear direction and very tangible benefits in my day-to-day work and personal life. The tools used in this process are great and really helped me to establish a clear framework around my life goals and a concrete career-life plan. By focussing on my core strengths and personal values, I have been able to develop a realistic and achievable plan for the future. Time management and stress management are other areas of focus that have really improved. I have found the process to be enjoyable, rewarding and truly beneficial and I'm certain that the personal learning will continue to deliver benefits well into the future."
- Manager, Masterfoods

"I believe that self reflection and analysis is always a good strategy for understanding why we may be behaving or feeling a certain way. In relation to work stress, on the surface of it, it may be easy to hold issues like work load, resources, expectations and so on responsible for stress, but each person experiences the same situation differently depending on your own priorities, attitudes, self expectations, goals and values. Reflecting on and identifying these can help recognize the barriers and determine solutions to stress and work/life imbalance."
- Manager, National Childcare organisation

Play of Life Applications:

Are relationships in your personal life or workplace problematic?

You are not alone!

With increasing workplace diversity, successfully managing workplace relationships becomes ever more complex. When these relationships don't work the business also suffers. As a result, communication breaks down, bullying and stress claims escalate and diversity management becomes impossible.

The outcomes for the busines are:

• reduced productivity
• reduced morale
• reduced employee engagement
• increased absenteeism and
• subsequent staff turnover.

The individual can suffer ineffective personal, family and team relationships and experience negative impacts on their life satisfaction and work performance.

Effective workplace relationships are essential for establishing high performing, flexible workplace cultures where work/life balance is a reality.

In many training programs, people are told what to do. In the Play of Life programs you will learn how to achieve successful relationships and much more.

You will be given the tools and techniques as well as understand the role you need to develop to achieve the relationships that lead to life satisfaction.

The Play of Life ingeniously transforms a problem or conflict from a complex issue into a simple, clear and visual representation, where possible solutions can be seen more clearly. The tool is presently being applied by coaches, counsellors, facilitators, psychologists, doctors, managers and human resources professionals with outstanding results.

“I have successfully applied many of these techniques in the business environment and in my personal life. I found them useful tools for business planning, facilitating complex problem solving and continuous improvement in our organisation. The processes are wonderfully simple and natural to apply and are very 'people friendly' in application”. Andrew Wilson, Director, PT BHP Billiton .

If people don’t get on, individuals, teams and workplaces can’t flourish. Having the skills to effectively coach individuals or teams who are experiencing relationship issues is a key to helping optimise their well-being and potential. Also, undertstanding the way others see us and why we relate in particular ways enables us to gain the insights and strategies to achieve success in our own relationships.

The Play of Life Programs provide the tools and knowledge for success in our work and personal relationships as well as enhancing professional coaching skills. A senior psychologist said of the Play of Life Program - “I can now put a turbo charger onto the way I already work. The Play of Life tool just overcomes so many things – cultural, language barriers and resistance. Easily adapted to already existing ways of working or theoretical constructs.” Martin Pearce, Davidson Trahaire Corpsych

The Play of Life is an innovative, international award winning coaching tool. Its application includes conflict resolution, team building, work/life balance, family therapy, behaviour change, career and transition coaching, organisational culture change and performance management.

The unique benefits of this method include:

• Language independence and immediate application
• Effectiveness beyond language and cultural barriers
• Scientifically based and easy to learn.

Tools for Cross-cultural Communication an article by Dr Carlos Raimundo

Multicultural Australia is not just a political stand it is our daily reality. Living in an homogenous social environment presents its own challenges, all of these are heightened in a multicultural society. With the challenges come opportunities. It is our ability and skill in learning “how to live together” that will maximise this opportunity.

The Ethno-Dynamics workshop has been designed to provide practical skills and tools to identify points in common in dealing with different cultural backgrounds and to maximise the benefits of diversity. The program applies an innovative coaching tool and methodology, “The Play of Life”.

The workshop will also demystify many “differences” by helping us to effectively connect to people beyond culture. The focus will be on the application of the Play of Life technology for corporate diversity issues such as leadership and management or in professional services organisations. “I have successfully applied many of these techniques in the business environment and in my personal life. I found them useful tools for business planning, facilitating complex problem solving and continuous improvement in our organisation. The processes are wonderfully simple and natural to apply and are very 'people friendly' in application”. Andrew Wilson, Director, PT BHP Billiton .

Managing Workplace Diversity an article by Kerry Fallon Horgan

Diversity management is about successfully harnessing and maximising the depth and breadth of the diversity within the workforce. It is a key strategy in developing business competitiveness in an increasingly complex and global marketplace.

Diversity management has three key components:

The bottom-line benefits to an organisation that successfully taps into the richness that diversity brings can be enormous. The costs of not doing so are devastating and can include lost productivity, stress and harassment claims, staff turnover and absenteeism.

Appropriate communication is vital to the success of any diversity program. Communication barriers result largely from cultural differences but also from gender differences, age differences, stereotyping, assumptions and so on.

Strategies for avoiding cross-cultural communication breakdown include:

Issues that involve cross-cultural communication breakdown can be complex and difficult resolve without the skills and knowledge needed to do so. An outstanding opportunity to gain the technology, skills and knowledge to successfully deal with cross-cultural issues will is available in our Ethno-dynamics workshop.

Conflict Resolution Workshop :

Some conflict is inevitable — so let’s deal with it and use it as an opportunity for positive change! Conflict arises from unfulfilled interests or when values are challenged, and it can be resolved through creative interaction between people. The sources of conflict and its remedies can be understood clearly using the Play of Life, which is used as a tool for relational analysis throughout the workshop.

Outcomes: At the end of the workshop participants will be able to:
