concrete workshops for brain workers

To develop and further strengthen personal well-being, Veneco organized workshops on recognizing and setting boundaries.

Some reactions from participants:

what I've remembered:

  • no is a full sentence
  • that we answer a question too easily (our social brain is being hijacked)
  • ,
  • it's ok to set your limits healthily, assertively and, above all, with understanding for others

what I use in practical terms:

  • build in a delay before agreeing (I'll check it out and come back to you later, ok?)

  • show sincere understanding, then a break, then repeat your position again (unfortunately...) —
  • I offer - where possible - an alternative


  • What a few dozen welfare professionals at the AP Hogeschool Antwerpen Safety Institute liked

    by the less stress workshop in the stress class

    :
    • clear and convincing framework,
    • strong exercises and interaction
    • space for learning and exchanging experiences
    • lively and brought with the right energy


    What they appreciated about the workshop never negotiate again

    • great top role-playing games and exercises to discover easily and in a safe setting
    • be thrown to the lions with constructive exercises where everyone remained valued
    • the insight that you need to negotiate at the level of interest and this needs to be properly prepared.


    and in general: Joost:

    • I learned that I'm already doing a good job, but I'm bringing opportunities for improvement again
    • !
    • From: A big thank you for the inspiring and enthusiastic work sessions. Not only did I enjoy it but I also talked about it regularly

    • Dirk: thank you so much, a long time since I had fun and learned something new, it flew by!!
