The Speak Week campaign runs from 6-10 February and aims to raise the profile of the employee voice – your voice – and encourage you to share your views. It’s an opportunity for you to give your thoughts and ideas across a range of topics. If you haven’t already heard about Speak Week, you can find out more on the staff intranet. It’s your chance to get involved.
The Staff Wellbeing Team will be attending all four Speak Week events, so why not come along and say hello to Cathy and I – we’ll be looking after the wellbeing stand. Speak to us to:
- Find out about wellbeing support available to you
- Try one of our stress-dots (find out how stressed you are!)
- Learn about our STOPP-card and how it can help you respond better to your stressors
- Give us your feedback on the service you’ve received from Care First, the University’s Employee Assistance Programme provider
- Tell us what you’d like from our wellbeing service.
To further support the week, here’s a short (3:48) video-clip that discusses ‘being assertive’. Understanding assertiveness and how to be assertive can guide you in using your voice in the most effective way. Remember though that assertiveness is a ‘doing’ activity – practice to develop your skill and build confidence.
