Practical Training for People Doing Difficult Work

Good training should do more than fill a professional development requirement.

It should give people something they recognize in their own work, something they can use the next day, and ideally, something that changes the way they approach the people they serve and the colleagues they work alongside.

Through RC Productions, a branch of Resilient Change, Todd provides practical training and presentations for organizations working in mental health, healthcare, social services, community services and other people-focused environments.

CUSTOMIZED TRAINING & PRESENTATIONS

CUSTOMIZED TRAINING & PRESENTATIONS

Organizations don't always need an off-the-shelf workshop. Training can be developed or adapted around the needs of your team, organization or audience

Training That Feels Like the Work

The best professional training respects the experience already sitting in the room.

Todd creates space for discussion, real-world examples, reflection and, when appropriate, case scenarios and experiential exercises.

Participants aren't simply given information. They're encouraged to think about how it applies to their own interactions, decisions and practice.

The goal isn't to talk at people. It's to give them something they can use when they go back to work.

Let's Talk About Your Team

Looking for a speaker or facilitator? Have a training need that doesn't quite fit into a standard workshop?

Start with a conversation about what would be most useful for your organization.

And then I'd make Todd's line visually prominent:

Training shouldn't just sound good in the room. It should still matter when people go back to work.
