IP Inclusive workshop: Managing inappropriate behaviour at work

IP Inclusive is an initiative devoted to promoting equality, diversity, inclusion and wellbeing throughout the UK's IP professions. Our activities cover four areas: awareness-raising upstream of the professions; best practice charter and accreditation schemes; diversity training; and support.We aim to provide cost-effective and accessible training, discussion and networking events for IP professionals in diversity-related issues. We also encourage our member organisations and Charter signatories to incorporate diversity into their own CPD and training programmes, particularly those focused on commercial and personal skills training, to ensure that diversity stays on the agenda for the decision-makers within our professions.

Inappropriate or unacceptable behaviour in your teams can drastically affect morale and performance...and more seriously may lead to claims of bullying and harassment.  But help is at hand...
Our interactive seminar will offer practical, down to earth guidance on how to tackle such situations with confidence, and stop them escalating into costly grievance or disciplinary procedures.
Aimed at all IP professionals and their managers, in both large and small organisations and with any level of experience, this event will look at the impact of inappropriate behaviour at work; help you to identify the line between “harmless banter” and unacceptable behaviour; identify practical steps for building truly inclusive teams, where everyone feels comfortable and able to give of their best; and produce guidance to share with the wider IP Inclusive community.
The seminar will be run by Catherine Hamilton of Focal Point Training and Consultancy, who has extensive experience of helping clients to deal with inappropriate behaviour at work.  Dominic Houlihan, from the UK IPO’s HR team, will also share his experiences on creating an inclusive working environment and offer advice on best practices to avoid causing upset or embarrassment amongst colleagues.
