Empatia (em-pah-tee-a) |
TESTIMONIALRead what people have said about their work with Jan BlumVictim Witness Administrator -- "I was fortunate to be part of this training at the POST Academy in September of 2007. The class was fun, informative and gave me useful tools in managing conflict situations. I have utilized what I learned many times, not only at work, but in my personal life as well. …I have recommended that all Victim Witness Coordinators in my area take this training since the skills are practical and highly effective in working with our clientele, people in trauma and conflict." Coordinator of Judicial District -- "My original purpose for attending the workshop was to gain skill in managing conflict and improving motivation and cooperation among members of the Third District Drug Court teams. What I experienced and received was so much more. The concepts are powerful and effective tools but ones that I had not been introduced to despite many trainings and conferences throughout my 30 year career. My goal to learn how to better manage conflict was met and surpassed as I left the 3-day workshop with a new way to talk with people, whether professionally or personally. Jan Blum brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to her participants. There was no doubt that she knows her subject well and designs the workshop to fit the participant's style of learning. She has the experience and sensitivity to provide an atmosphere for participants to relax and yet work diligently on the material. Upon returning to my office and work with the Drug Court Judges and teams, I shared some of what I had learned with our Judges and team members. We have now scheduled another workshop that will include all members of the District's Drug Court teams. I highly recommend including Jan Blum in any of your future training or professional development plans." Business Owner -- "Thank you for sharing so much of yourself and creating a learning environment that is authentic, safe, and fun! You've given me a lot of information and tools to make my world a happier, more peaceful, and more productive place!" Mediator -- "I'm excited about what I learned in this class. I'm walking away with new problem solving skills. I would recommend this material to other mediators." Telecommunications Specialist, Coordinator Bonner County DEM/EMD/911/EMS - "Recently three of our employees attended your conflict management course at POST. They all came back raving about what they got out of the course and there has been a noticeable change in their handling of relations with others." (This coordinator subsequently brought the training in-house for her entire team of emergency responders.) Patrolman -- "It is so nice to talk and be heard." Psychiatrist -- "Jan Blum's work with the teaching of nonviolent communication brings a freshness and creativity that not only embodies the spirit of compassionate language but gives us an experience of transformative healing at multiple levels. This is the stuff that making the dream life is made of, one empathic word at a time with every interaction between us. Her work has impacted my daily life, both professionally and personally. I recommend her enthusiastically and without reservation and feel strongly that it is none too soon that this work comes to us, full of integrity and vitality to heal ourselves and the planet as well." Counselor -- "I appreciated your positive energy -- the ability to model with such a diverse population. You met my need for hope as I watched your interactions with people who usually avoid dealing with feelings." Training Coordinator -- "This was an excellent class that will impact my relationships both at work and in my private life in a very positive manner. You have a miraculous way of getting the entire class genuinely involved."
