Who Should Attend
Leaders, Business Managers, Human Resource Professionals and Individuals keen on continuous skills development
Overview
The traditional workplace has evolved into a digital one, marked by the characteristics of a BANI (Brittle, Anxious, Non-Linear, and Incomprehensible) world.
This module aims to examine the different psychological frameworks associated with emotions, and how they can be applied in the digital workplace to improve employee engagement, risk management, and professional development to encourage non-linear problem solving.
The module will also explore common emotional challenges faced by employees, and equip individuals with basic micro skills to manage colleagues and remote/ borderless collaborations.
Learning Objectives
At the end of the two-day module, participants will be able to:
- Understand the role of psychology to facilitate employee engagement in the BANI (Brittle, Anxious, Non-Linear, and Incomprehensible) world
- Demonstrate understanding and application of psychological frameworks in the new digital workplace for enhanced decision making, risk management, performance appraisals and recruitment.
- Apply micro skills (e.g., non-verbal communication, listening, responding) within and outside the workplace.
Topic/Structure
Leveraging on SMU’s distinctive pedagogy for interactive, discussion driven and thought provoking seminar-style teaching, we aim to provide our participants with the ability to translate the learning and insights into practice at the workplace. A variety of teaching methods such as experiential learning, role plays, case discussions, presentations, exercises and oral questioning will be employed by the programme’s faculty in the training sessions. There will also be an individual assessment at the end of every module which serve to assess a participant’s understanding of the subject matter.
Assessment
Participants have to meet a minimum attendance rate of 75% and have to complete all assessment(s) required by the course. Only upon meeting the minimum attendance and passing the assessment will participants be issued a Certificate of Completion.
Participants who fail the assessment will be given a chance for re-assessment at a fee of SGD100.00 (excluding prevailing GST). Each participant is allowed 1 re-assessment. The re-assessment has to be taken within 7 calendar days from the end of the course date. It will be held on a weekday specified by SMU Academy and conducted during office hours. Please note that re-assessment fees are not supported by SSG Funding.
Participants who meet the minimum attendance rate but do not achieve a pass for the assessment will be issued a Certificate of Participation.
Participants are required to bring their laptop to access the course materials, class exercises and individual assessment(s).
