Real cost of Outdated Behaviour Management Systems - free webinar

Still relying on sticker charts, sanctions, or "zero tolerance" policies? You might be spending more than you realise – not just in morale, but in money.

In this provocative and practical session, behaviour specialist and author Andy Baker unpacks the real cost of outdated behaviour management systems in care homes, children’s services, and schools. Drawing from his book Targeting the Positive with Behaviours That Challenge, Andy challenges the ingrained reward-and-punishment models still dominant in many settings – models that often escalate behaviour, drive staff burnout, and create environments where risk is managed poorly, or not at all.

Whether you lead a care home, a children’s residential setting, or a school, this session will help you:

• Recognise how traditional behaviourist models may be undermining your outcomes, staff retention, and legal compliance
• Understand the moral, legal, and financial impact of poor behaviour support – including real UK case studies of negligence, compensation claims, and regulatory fines
• Identify how burnout, absenteeism, and agency reliance are often symptoms of deeper cultural issues around behaviour and unmet need
• Explore the power of mindset shift – moving from compliance-driven control to understanding-driven connection
• Learn how the Able Target System offers a trauma-informed, values-led alternative that supports both staff and individuals – reducing incidents and saving thousands

Packed with real-world examples and actionable insights, this talk will equip you to reflect honestly on what your current approaches are really costing you – and inspire you to build safer, more sustainable cultures that thrive through compassion, not control.

Because behaviour isn't something to be "managed" – it's something to be understood.
