This exercise is great for starting a discussion about behaviours in the workplace. In an organisation with staff in office, factory and warehouse settings it was interesting to discuss the differences and should the behaviour be more acceptable in one place than another. The importance of context also came out strongly. I loved that the way the exercise is run means the "right" and "wrong" comes from the group, so the trainer doesn't need to be preachy about the topic, and can challenge views by throwing them out to the rest of the group. I would use this exercise with any group where raising awareness of potentially harmful behaviours would be useful.

Brilliant exercise for getting delegates into deeper discussions about behaviours and their impact. I also customised some statements to make them relevant to the groups I was working with (using the word template). This made the exercise even more powerful. The client wanted to highlight the differences between Firm Management and Bullying so I used this exercise in conjunction with the article by Sheila Williams.

I have run 90 minute Banter and Bullying sessions for 250 people now in 4 organisations. It really helped to have this module as the main focus of the session. It certainly raised awareness of how one persons banter can be another person feeling bad! It works at th simple level of showing how difficult it is to define where the line is, but also helped to make people more likely to intervene if they witnessed problems. It also worked with teams who had many members were English was a second language. Not much extra explanation was needed. Powerfully thought provoking, and really rammed home the "it depends" thinking.

This activity was used for middle managers who had little or no experience of recruiting staff. This content was used in conjunction with “Take your pick – short listing candidates” The course content was good and easy to use; participants had to think and discuss about colleagues roles. This was used as the first activity of the day which meant everyone could make an input. It showed a link between skills, attitudes and behaviours, how they all inter link and how they are all equally important. The activity was a good discussion basis and I was able to build more into the session from the group discussion afterwards.

I was asked by our board of directors to run a session throughout the company that would highlight how to identify and deal with bullying and harassment. Although we don’t have a problem with this the directors wanted all employees to have the knowledge of how to deal with it if it does happen. I have run this session approximately 25 times now with groups of 4 -10. This mini session was really good and highlighted things that people do and say in everyday life that they don’t realise can often offend people and make them feel “bad” about themselves. Everyone enjoyed this session and the feedback was all positive.
