This is a LIVE webinar available from our training partners People Connect Institute.  

 

Who's stressed out and overwhelmed these days?

 That's an easy one! 

Some of your patrons and co-workers.

How we respond to these difficult patron behaviors is often the key to de-escalating these situations and in turn protecting ourselves when their behavior is no longer acceptable or wanted.

 

In this interactive and informative program, attendees will learn specific verbiage to set boundaries and de-escalate patrons' situations, as well safety techniques and procedures to use to create more consistent responses to difficult behaviors.

 

As a result of this program, attendees will learn:

 

        Specific phrases to use with patrons to stop unwanted behaviors

        The 30-30-30 rule for creating an environmentally safe library space

        Using the OODA Loop model to decide what actions to take (or not)

        De-escalation techniques to use to help patrons focus on problem solving instead of continuing emotional outbursts

        How and why not to take the patrons' behavior personally
