Senior Leaders’ Webinar 4: Restorative and Relational Based Practice led by Mark Finnis
Restorative and relational based practice describe a way of being, an underpinning ethos, which enables us to build and maintain healthy relationships, resolve difficulties and repair harm when relationships breakdown.
Mark is the founder and director of L30 Restorative Systems, who have created an explicit framework which embodies the principles, values and practices of the philosophy of restorative and relational practice. L30 is founded on the principles of working ‘with’ people, rather than doing ‘to’ or ‘for’ others. When we work with and alongside people, rather than make decisions about them in isolation, outcomes and impact are so much greater.
The key learning points for the webinar are:
This new and innovative approach is designed to deliver practical skills based learning that will promote and embed practice.
The format for the programme is based on action learning principles, learning, questioning, reflecting and building on current strengths. I will use restorative principles to assist participants in clarifying group protocols, giving direct input and facilitating group reflection.
It has been specifically designed to support online learning about working restoratively. The approach to learning will be a combination of presentations, interactive discussions and group and personal exercises. The emphasis will be on engagement and using the skills and knowledge of the whole group.
All of the training that is delivered will provide delegates with the practical skills & underpinning knowledge, enabling them to use these immediately on completion of training.
All training fits with National Standards for Restorative Practitioners and the Best Practice Guidance document for 2012.
