A colleague keeps making the same mistake and you want to call this person on it, but you are afraid of a negative reaction. Or your supervisor asks you to give feedback on a project, but you don't know how to do this constructively without hurting anyone. Recognizable?
In this training your employees will learn how to give feedback without being too direct, too offensive or too soft. This allows them to take concrete actions faster. They also learn how to receive feedback, even when it is not given in the most constructive way, without feeling personally attacked.
After this training, your employees will succeed in giving and receiving feedback effectively, contributing to a positive and constructive work environment. In doing so, they create a culture of open communication where everyone feels valued and respected.

Based on these theoretical foundations, our trainers develop a learning path focused on giving and receiving feedback.
Police Zone Antwerp continues to hold integrity in high regard. Integrity is linked to the vision, mission and values of the police force. Integrity violations do not comply with the internal code of conduct of Police Zone Antwerp, nor with the deontological code of the integrated police. Not only can they damage the good name and reputation of Police Zone Antwerp, they are also detrimental to the customer and the employees. For optimal service, it is therefore of great importance that all 2,650 employees of Police Zone Antwerp act with integrity.
Newemployees in the force are immediately brought into this culture with the slogan "We never look aside." This includes a one-day workshop. The theoretical session in the morning focuses mainly on sensitizing the employees. In the afternoon, Obelisk sharpens communication skills. That way, employees feel skilled enough to also address others about undesirable, non-integrity behavior.

Online or hybrid
Obelisk believes in the power of hybrid solutions, the combination of offline and online. Our hybrid courses are not a "copy-paste" of classroom training. They are adapted to new realities and our coaches retrained. The result is a complete hybrid package with the best of both worlds, online and offline.
During an introductory meeting, we identify your questions, expectations and the unique context of your organization. This is how we ensure that our offer perfectly matches your needs.
Based on this first meeting we will work out a tailor-made offer, which we will send you by email or come and explain in person. After your approval, we start designing the learning trajectory and planning the next steps, always in close consultation with you in order to optimally align the trajectory with your wishes and goals.
