You must have attended the above workshop or another full day Bridges Out of Poverty workshop prior to registering for this workshop.
We are pleased to have this event co-sponsored by the City of Pittsfield Community Development Department and welcome national Aha Process! facilitator, Jodie Pfarr to Pittsfield for the second workshop in our series. This workshop is designed to take the constructs introduced in the Bridges Out of Poverty workshop and help participants begin embedding them. Participants will learn more about:
- Language experience, cognitive issues, and barriers to change
- How to use mental models to communicate effectively
- Skills of mediation
- Relationship building and mentoring
Applying Bridges Concepts also introduces strategies for changing program designs, policies, and procedures. Participants will use case studies and an examination of the client’s life cycle to identify principles of change.
