Creating The Upside Down Organization: Transforming Staff to Save Troubled Children
Based on the book of the same name, this workshop introduces a new paradigm for the way in which child-serving organizations are organized and operated. Rather than focusing on changing the behaviors of children, this new philosophy focuses on changing the thinking and behavior of the staff that respond to the children. Known as Transformation Education, this organizational philosophy intentionally structures a culture where the beliefs, values and expectations of the organization are clearly, powerfully, and consistently communicated through the alignment of people, systems, curriculum and environment. Packed with tools, templates, systems and examples, this workshop will teach you how to transform the performance of your staff and your organization to improve the quality of services you provide to children. This proven model boasts impressive results in a variety of child-serving settings including schools and residential programs. By focusing on the transformation of the staff, students receive the values and life-skills education necessary for a successful life — one full of caring, contribution and commitment.
