Cooperation with the WoCo Director
"Works council members are my affordable consultants!" said a Director during one of our training sessions. How do you get your Director to see you that way too? No vague relationship therapy, but personal tips to improve your relationship.
Improv for the WoCO
Accept it. Decisions will be made, against your advice. Sometimes the Director surprises you. Changes are suddenly announced. The better you become at dealing with changes, the more fun your work becomes. Therefore, register your Works Council now for the workshop Improvisation for the Works Council
DISC for the WoCo
DISC helps you work better together in the Works Council and with the Board. Once you understand why your colleague acts the way they do, you can choose to adjust your behavior and communication style accordingly. You will immediately notice that the collaboration will be easier and better, with more results for both of you!
Negotiating
Negotiating will definitely be part of your works council work. How do you achieve the maximum result for both the colleagues and the organization? Can you strengthen the relationship during a negotiation? You will learn all about it in the Negotiating for Works Council training. With a master's degree in Conflict Mediation, we know the ins and outs!
Deal with resistance
As a Works Council you don't always get your way. Sometimes you will experience resistance within the Works Council. Sometimes there is tension between the Works Council and the Director. The better you get at dealing with resistance, the more fun your work becomes. Get practical tips and personal feedback on how you can become more effective.
Elections of the WoCo
Every few years it's happening: the elections of the Works Council. And now you are the one who has to organise it. What are the legal requirements again? What do you have to do and by when? How do you make sure it looks slick? Our election tool will help you. All the way.
Group Dynamics in the WoCo
Sometimes the team just does not work so smoothly as it should. There is disturbance in the undercurrent. The Daily Board has to do everything, members don't show up or don't come prepared. What to do? We're here to help!
WoCo advanced class
