The ODP™ wave one Workshops are building on the work undertaken within ASC over the last two years to establish a culture with a holistic approach to performance, to ensure clarity on what needs to be done, who is going to do it and how things are undertaken. The emphasis of a strong performance driven culture, working at pace with adult: adult relationships embedding coaching as a preferred conversation style.

 Through the workshops to :

• Ensure understanding of ODP™ principles and behaviours in practice
• Improve Confidence in modelling ODP behaviours individually and within own team
• Modelling of ‘adult adult’ style conversations to encourage ownership and innovation- based on key behaviours of shared goals, people first and achievement
• Apply and explore ODP™ behaviours within context of our key agenda items of Strengths based practice, Health & Wellbeing and Equality and Inclusivity

The three interrelated workshops seek to create and sustain a strong, cohesive, and supportive performance culture with the following principles modelled in behaviours:

• Owning and Driving Outcomes
• Embracing Innovation and Change/New ways of Working
• Partnership and Connectivity ethos                  
• Encouraging inclusion of different experiences and bias to add value to the whole
• Support and Challenge ethos and behaviours

Why we need to look at performance from a people centred model, understanding context of change, Modelling ‘owning and driving’ own performance in practice - clarity re behavioural (qualitative) measures – theory to practice!

ii. Coaching for performance

Introduces the GROW model of coaching applied ‘In Time’ conversations. Practical session to practice in time coaching conversations as we move away from ‘grade or ‘go to’ technical expertise focus only’ and towards equity and empowerment style conversations with focus on individual responsibility and accountability invested in individuals. 

 iii ‘Crunchy conversations for performance

Considers more personal awareness of behavioural style in application when providing challenge and giving feedback in a way that improves performance, even when difficult.  Again, the focus Is on consistency of modelling the stated behaviours in practice 

Each person will be paired with a peer from within the cohort where they do not have a current line manager relationship – these will continue for 2 years to enable consolidation and practice of modelling new behaviours and approaches whilst developing partnership relationships and thinking.
