Empowered Relationships - an Introduction
This session looks at the Drama Triangle and Empowerment Dynamic and helps delegates understand how their responses (conscious and unconscious) influence interactions.
When we learn to recognise our own patterns – (eg people-pleasing and ‘rescuing’), we are empowered to act differently.
This has huge implications when we’re working in supportive roles. Boundaries become clearer and easier to maintain. Interactions become more solution focussed. Clients, in turn, are empowered.
By the end of the session, participants will:
- Understand the Drama Triangle model and how it applies to working life
- Recognise the signs of Persecutor, Victim and Rescuer
- Be familiar with the Empowerment Dynamic
- Explore the difference between the two models
- Identify their own patterns
- Explore how to make changes to foster happier, healthier relationships
This session has the potential to springboard lasting change. When people are enabled to understand how their own patterns influence the quality of their interactions, changes can be made and life gets better all round.
“The tutors’ manner, skills and competencies were outstanding. The delivery, timing, engagement tools and ethos were excellent.”
– Vicky, Workshop participant, 2023
There can be so much energy lost to unnecessary drama. Learning how to stop taking responsibility for things beyond my control and getting better at setting boundaries has been a game-changer for me. Understanding how these patterns play out gave me the power to create healthier relationships. The models are useful for personal and work life.
This course will be helpful for anyone in a supportive role, whether team-leader or managing challenging clients. It reduces stress and leaves everyone more energy for doing great work.
