Special Topics in MI Series Presents:
Motivational Interviewing in Supervision & Leadership
Over the years as a Motivational Interviewing trainer, I have had supervisors, managers and supervisors ask how Motivational Interviewing can be applicable in their work. Well, there are two books on the topic! Motivational Interviewing in Leadership Organizations (MILO) is a subgroup of the Motivational Interviewing Network of Trainers (MINT). Join one of the authors, Colleen Marshall, in this workshop to introduce managers and organizational leaders to ways Motivational Interviewing applies in leadership.
In this workshop, participants will be introduced to a new adaptation of Motivational Interviewing for leaders and managers. Specifically, we will discuss how to apply the spirit, four tasks, and methods of Motivational Interviewing (MI) are an effective approach for leaders and managers to evoke change readiness among employees in an organizational setting. MI is a collaborative and goal-oriented style of communication based on empathy and listening and focused on the language of change. The workshop will set the stage for understanding how MI can positively impact leadership goals and approaches and will also share other opportunities to develop the skills and practice necessary to master this new application of Motivational Interviewing.
