BRIEF News

In the context of the current crisis face-to-face work, whether that be therapy, coaching, consulting, supervising or training are no longer possible. For the foreseeable future we have decided that the only responsible thing to do is to move our work on-line. We have already started delivering.

At a time of crisis many people are looking for the 'right words', for a template upon which to base a useful conversation. Here is just such a template that can be used by managers, family members, neighbours, volunteers and supporters. https://www.brief.org.uk/videos.html

Here are the sign up details for a free SF video training course that is available NOW.

In these unprecedented times BRIEF has decided to suspend our own training programme until the end of August 2020. This seems to us to best fit the advice received to date and the need for education, social work and health staff to be available for work in services that are likely to become increasingly pressured .

Over the next few days BRIEF will contact all those who have booked on our courses between now and the end of May outlining the possibilities. In the meantime BRIEF wishes all of you our very best in these difficult times. Perhaps now our communities really do require us to be the 'best versions of ourselves', truly at our best as we might say in the Solution Focused world. BRIEF would also wish to thank those of you who are continuing to work to protect the health and well-being of all of us.

Harvey and Chris have each recently published co-authored books exploring two of the flexible and varied applications of the Solution Focused approach. Harvey, writing with Yasmin Ajmal, has focused on work in Schools and Chris, with Susanne Burgstaller, on work with Teams.
