Handling aggression: Aggression, both in the domestic and professional spaces, is a serious cause for concern. It is something that vitiates the atmosphere at home and at the workplace. Its financial costs are extremely burdensome. It costs organizations and the national economy billions of dollars in revenues lost to lack of productivity that aggression brings about. The emotional costs are even higher, and incalculable. At this course on handling aggression, Dr. Thompson will show the basics of recognizing the potential for aggression, nipping difficult situations in the bud, reacting calmly to aggressive outbursts, and dealing with the aftermath of an episode of aggression.
Positive Mental Health: Cultivating a condition of positive mental health is a great means to achieve peace and happiness. It is the foundation for wellbeing. But how does one achieve this? At this very flexible, power packed course on positive mental health, Dr. Thompson will show the Five C’s model of mental health, which he has designed based on five elements:
o Challenge
o Character
