Sandi’s Workplace Boundaries workshop covers boundaries, or healthy limits, and how they are essential at work and in business. Sandi says “people can find themselves pleasing others and putting up with situations that lead to being taken advantage of, feeling trapped and stressed, compromising themselves and their roles. They need to know when and how to say “no” to colleagues and even customers in a way that does not cause offence.”
Cross cultural skills is another area of Sandi’s expertise. “Improved awareness and appreciating cultural differences builds respect, reduces misunderstanding and enables services that better meet the needs of diverse customers and clients”. Sandi also provides workshops about the effects of bullying and harassment at work and what to do if it happens. Bullying can be a significant workplace hazard which employers have a duty to control. Training for staff reduces the risk of harm to employees and of failing to comply with the legislation. For more information or to arrange a workshop contact:
