Introduction
Innovative Resources, the publishing arm of St Luke's Anglicare hosts workshops in most states every year. Join us in 2008 in Sydney, Adelaide and Bendigo.
Our seriously optimistic® workshops demonstrate ways in which card packs, stickers, books, photographs, illustrations and a whole range of tactile resources can be used to create change-oriented, strengths-based conversations.
Our workshops are highly interactive and provide participants with hands-on experience in using high-quality resources that can help us uncover our strengths, goals, feelings, and stories.
In our workshops we endeavour to:
build on participants' own experiences provide practical, readily useable skills inspire participants to rediscover the significance of creativity in their lives and in the lives of their clients, students and colleagues demonstrate ways that metaphors can magnify the power of words and questions facilitate dynamic conversations have fun and experience the relationship between playfulness and soulfulness.We offer workshops from four hours to two days. We will tailor workshops to meet the special needs of any organisation, and we travel.
