This workshop will examine recent developments in the science of human connection to explore its neurobiological mechanisms and psychological value for generating shared meaning, learning and health. New studies, especially of communication with young children, demonstrate social connection is active at all times, and that we share feelings and motives based on ‘non-conscious’ neurophysiological systems. We will explore how these forms of communication affect professional practice, how they are organised, and how to work effectively with them.
This event is for individuals interested in the nature of human relations and how to improve professional working practice in work with others. It will be of relevance for police officers, social workers, teachers, business people and other professionals wishing to improve their understanding of communication to improve their practice.
Delegates will learn about new studies of communication with young children, how these forms of communication affect professional practice, how they are organised, and how to work effectively with them.
