SUMMARY:Putting the T in Competency: Supporting Your Trans+ Patients
DESCRIPTION:Please see below an invite to a free lunch-and-learn webinar Putting the T in Competency: Supporting Trans+ Patients\, run by Waiting Well\, a new service from Gendered Intelligence and LGBT Foundation. \nHere at Waiting Well\, we know that a large percentage of transgender and non-binary people don’t feel like their needs are being met in healthcare settings (1)(2). We also know that you\, as a healthcare professional\, want to provide high-quality\, patient-centred care to all of your patients and we’re here to offer you a helping hand. This DHSC-funded training is designed to make you feel confident and competent in supporting your Trans+ patients\, giving you some take-away tips to better your practice both individually and as a team. \nNow more than ever\, with an updated BMA principles on shared care agreements (3)\, the NHS changing its policy on single-sex spaces (4) and the recent changes to the EHRC Code of Practice (5)\, being able to feel confident that you and your team are offering your Trans+ patients a welcoming and inclusive space to engage with their healthcare is so valuable. \nBy the end of the hour\, you’ll have learnt key terminology\, grown your understanding of health barriers and inequalities\, and joined us on the patient journey as we explore concrete steps you can take to provide the most inclusive and supportive care to your patients. \nThis webinar is currently open to healthcare professionals (including both clinical and administrative staff) practising in the South West of England. \n Sign up for one of our monthly sessions here and commit to putting the T in competency. \n  \nMore about Waiting Well \nWaiting Well was created to support trans and non-binary people who are on the national waiting list for gender identity healthcare.

SUMMARY:The Fascinating World of Understanding People
DESCRIPTION:Why a little more self-awareness can make a big difference \n  \nWhy do some team relationships thrive while others feel challenging? Why do certain leadership approaches work brilliantly with one person but fall flat with another? And what changes when we truly understand ourselves and the people around us? \n  \nJoin Niki and Charlie for an informal and engaging conversation about their passion for psychometric tools\, including Insights Discovery\, Belbin and MBTI\, in developing stronger leaders\, managers and teams. \n  \nDrawing on their experience of delivering this training\, they’ll share stories of those lightbulb moments when people discover something new about themselves\, gain a fresh perspective on a colleague\, or realise just how powerful our different values\, preferences and strengths can be. \n  \nTogether\, they’ll explore how personality preferences\, values and behavioural styles influence communication\, motivation\, collaboration\, and why understanding these differences can transform workplace relationships and performance. \n  \nWhether you’re leading a team\, managing stakeholders or simply looking to work more effectively with others\, you’ll leave with fresh perspectives on what drives people and how greater self-awareness can enhance leadership effectiveness. \n  \nCome along\, get curious and see people in a new light. \n  \nRegister here
