Building the Future - Partnership Training

Event Date:

UNISON Belfast 

Unions and management traditionally work within an industrial relations framework across a range of issues.  A partnership approach does not replace formal negotiations but for some initiatives can offer a different way of working towards agreed solutions.  In the past UNISON has very successfully utilised the approach with the West Belfast Employability Initiative and to improve experience of staff and residents in care homes.   This course offers activists the knowledge and principles of working in partnership in order to take forward projects in your local workplace.   We welcome participation from any activist but is essential for anyone who wishes to undertake a project to effect positive change in their workplace.  The day will explore the 

  • ethos of working in partnership
  • setting your goals
  • enthusing others
  • measuring success
