This conference will explore some of the recognised factors that influence how relationships develop and the principles that increase the probability of building successful and fulfilling relationships.
To help ensure everyone begins the day with a shared understanding, we will also host a short pre-conference webinar introducing the key concepts of The Chimp Model for those who may be new to it.
Throughout the day, Professor Steve Peters will explore the relationship we have with ourselves, what happens when we first meet someone, and the beliefs and behaviours that shape how relationships develop over time.
The aim of the conference is to provide insight and practical ideas that can help people reflect on and strengthen the relationships in both their personal and professional lives.
This workshop will explore the relationship we have with ourselves.
In particular, we will look at our self-image and the beliefs we hold about ourselves, and how these can influence the way we think, behave and relate to others.
Understanding this relationship can play an important role in how we approach the relationships around us.
In this workshop we will look at what happens neuro-scientifically when we meet someone.
We will explore how relationships often develop around needs or desired outcomes, and how recognising these can help us better understand why relationships form and how those needs can be fulfilled constructively or destructively.
This workshop will consider the difference between professional and personal relationships.
Delegates will have the opportunity to reflect on the beliefs and behaviours on which their personal relationships are built, and the factors that can influence whether those relationships develop in a constructive and fulfilling way.
The final workshop will bring together the key insights from the day.
We will explore practical takeaways that can help people reflect on and improve the relationships in their everyday lives.
