About this Event
When working with couples and families, this is an invaluable skill in helping individuals respond strategically rather than reactively to perceived misbehavior in that its use can lead to greater feeling of belonging and contributing.
Understanding the Goals of Misbehavior and utilizing this knowledge in classroom applications and counseling situations is a critical skill. Using the Seven Step Consultation Process of Dinkmeyer and Carlson, participants will be provided a basic understanding of the Goals of Misbehavior and how to use the Consultation process in helping our colleagues, students, and clients identify goals of misbehavior (Attention, Power, Revenge, and Display of Inadequacy) How to respond strategically/proactively rather than reactively will be emphasized. The Consultation Process may be demonstrated with an actual person, with participants providing their observation and insights during the process
Participants will be able to
1.Identify the Goals of Misbehavior and how to determine which are in play.
2. Understand the steps in an effective Consultation Process
3. Participate in an actual consultation experience with their colleagues.
