Overview
Whether working in classrooms, health-care settings, or hospitality we all recognise the emotional labour of "putting on a show" when we least feel like it. Flourishing means more than minimising distress - it is about recognising our sources of nourishment, meaning and purpose, which can include the work we do. The pandemic accelerated our understanding of work as a place to go; work instead is a place to be in complex and multi-layered networks of relationships. If you are interested in understanding flourishing as understanding your place in relationally-complex environments, recognising boundaries and monitoring what we "spend" of ourselves, then this course is for you.
Key Features
In addition to exploring the skills and attitudes for raising awareness of our relational "selves" in the workplace, I promote something more sustainable and ambitious, which is assessing the attitudes we no longer question about how we organise our working lives. Multiple lockdowns emphasised the problems we face in untangling ourselves from work. This is why I integrate exercises in relational competences as the keystone for change. We come to know ourselves through our relationships and this Flourishing at Work course at the University of the West of England (UWE Bristol) introduces you to an understanding of ourselves and our place in the order of things which includes the world of work.Programme Structure
