Managing Dual Roles : Supporting Behaviour Change

This session will take place on the Microsoft Teams platform.

Overview

Even in the best situations after listening and thoughtful work, service users required to carry out a prescribed plan as part of set conditions can make choices and engage in behaviours you wish they wouldn’t. Such times do call for a response. In this workshop we consider how to approach this scenario using a strength-based, collaborative and an autonomy supportive response based on experience and insights from Motivational Interviewing. This should be of interest to people who work in services where there is a dual role of managing the relationship between the service user and the supervising authority.

Completion of the SDF Introduction to Motivational Interviewing training is a requirement for attendance.

Aim

To illustrate practice consistent with motivational interviewing in non-compliance situations which maintains the balance between supporting change in service users and an effective advocate for the supervising authority.

Learning Outcomes

By the end of the workshop, participants will have:

• Discussed the importance of improving practice in adopting a strength based, collaborative and autonomy supporting response in situations of non-compliance.
• Observed a demonstration of managing dual roles in a non-compliance scenario using the ‘Two Futures’ process.
