Do your clients give you excuses? Here’s how to recognise this diversionary tactic – and intervene – for your client’s own good health.
In this DC webinar, featuring online learning expert Matt O’Neill, director of the Smart Shape Centre for Weight Management, you’ll learn how to turn excuses into actions.
Matt will give you tools to use in future client consultations, including specific questioning to explore behaviour; a suite of coaching strategies you can apply to any client; and much more. His focus is on five key strategies for coaching:
- Establishing commitment
- Reducing excuses
- Managing setbacks
- Boosting belief
- Intervening when change has stalled
From the very first consultation, dietitians have the opportunity to change lives, not just diets. Become a better change agent with Matt’s effective mindset approaches and coaching strategies.
Learning Objectives:
- How to use specific questioning to explore and establish better behavioural management.
- Establish a suite of brief behavioural coaching strategies to user in any client consultation.
