Bridge Conference 2019

Many of us are familiar with the active participatory approach to learning for youth, but have you considered how this approach applies to your management of staff? Non-profit jobs, especially child/youth work, can create a revolving door of front line employees. Purposeful staff development, active management, and consistent coaching can assist your program in building and maintaining quality staff.
Participants will:
1. Explore the Active Participatory Approach through the lens of management
2. Learn generative coaching strategies to improve staff engagement and retention
3. Improved management communication skills.
This session will take an intersectional approach grounded in understanding the social and economic conditions in which women, LGBTQI people, people of color, people with disabilities, and younger staff are especially vulnerable. Skills building will include coaching and communication skills to foster self efficacy for your staff.
