Univer sity staff find themselves worrying about coping with strong emotion\, cha llenging behaviour and noncompliance. In this 3-hour online workshop\, we will examine approaches to managing student behaviour supportively and col laboratively\, while maintaining an appropriate environment for learning a nd teaching support. \n\nProgramme:\n\nProblems and Principles\n\n Intro s: I hate it when…\n Chat: listening debrief\n Talk: categorisation an d summary\n Chat: Discussion: reasons for behaviour\n Group work: Advoca cy\n Debrief: Good general principles\n Talk: Starting well—the 3 S’ s\n\nWe start with an exercise which makes clear why people can sometimes behave badly\, and establishes values for a good conflict-free approach. H aving established basic values\, the course goes on to look at potential a reas of conflict between the client and the librarian. First\, we look at beginnings – what kind of environment the student encounters when enteri ng the library in terms of layout\, signage\, and other signals. This lead s into a discussion about effective voice and body language for creating a positive encounter\n\nPractical Techniques\n\n Group work: delivering cr iticism\n Chat: cultural differences\n Group work: dealing with strong e motion\n Debrief: defusing situations\n Talk: shutting down encounter— gears\n Chat: finishing gracefully—dessert/coffee\n\nNext\, we look at how to successfully deliver difficult information\, e.g. criticism for tal king in the library. In a series of exercises we look at delivery of ‘cl ean communication’ to get willing compliance from the library-user. Afte r a short session on cultural differences in communication\, we go on to s ee how to defuse strong emotion and complaints. Only then do we go on to a method to use when positive resolution is impossible: the gears technique . The day finishes with a quick look at ‘closing’ techniques: how to e nd encounters which are going on too long.\n\nTrainer:\n\nAsh Charlton\, C reative Director at Ace Training\, has been delivering useful and enjoyabl e training courses for over 20 years.  His clients include universities\, charities\, local authorities\, central government and the UN.
