In 2021 Ingeus Justice Services commissioned Geese to deliver a series of ten Behind the Mask training events across the UK. The training was designed in consultation with Ingeus Justice Service’s Director of Operations and their Learning and Development specialist to align with the needs of their staff teams, some of whom work in Education, Training and Employment, some in Housing, and some in Personal Wellbeing.
The events were delivered to staff groups of 16 people and included:
– Demonstration of mask as metaphor for presenting behaviours and coping strategies
– Practical exploration of what might lie behind the mask and motivate the external behaviour.
– Exploration of fictional scenarios in which professionals encounter a challenging or resistant mask and a safe forum in which situations can be discussed and alternative approaches rehearsed.
For many staff this was their first opportunity to attend face-to-face training since the Covid pandemic and as such provided an excellent opportunity for building a healthy team dynamic
