New workshop aims to empower practice managers to facilitate change in workplace

26 Mar 2024

All practice managers across the region are invited to PM Efficiency Tips & Tricks, face-to-face workshops to be held at Bowral and Warwick Farm in April and May.

Director and Practice Coach, Kim Poyner, from the Practice Excellence Institute, is guest speaker at both events and will focus on supporting practice managers to facilitate change within their practice during the first half of the workshop.

Ms Poyner will:

  • explore the starting points by identifying key areas and initiatives where change can be effectively introduced in general practices.
  • cultivate a change mindset by discussing the importance of embracing change as an opportunity for growth and learning, and how to foster a positive attitude towards change within the team.
  • co-designing next steps with your team by engaging participants in collaborative exercises and discussions to co-create actionable plans for implementing change initiatives in a manner aligned with the needs and aspirations of the team.
  • provide tips to communicate change with your team by sharing practical strategies and tips to effectively communicate change to the team, ensure understanding, manage resistance, and promote ownership and commitment.

In the second half of the workshop, practice managers will be invited to join a group discussion to brainstorm ideas about the areas in which they would most benefit from upskilling, and how SWSPHN can best support them through continuing professional development (CPD) activities throughout the year.
