METASAGA
“Heroes take journeys, confront dragons, and discover the treasure of their true selves.” - Carol Lynn Pearson.
I am running a Meta Saga at John Knox house in Edinburgh on Friday 7th March at 10.30. This is a facilitation technique that encourages people to reflect on the surroundings and environment. See the attached document for more information.
There is no cost for this event except your entrance fee to John Knox House – probably £5.00. Because the house is small I plan to limit the numbers to 10 people. So please book a space with me. I expect the Meta Saga to last about an hour and we can then meet in the Café at the Story telling centre for a chat.
If you are unable to make this event but would like to know more about Meta Saga and designing training to be friendly to the Brain. I am an training event workshop –Train in the Grain of the Brain at Carronvale House, Near Falkirk on the 20th March.
Discover yourself in the world around you. Kate Coutts
“We don’t receive wisdom; we must discover it for ourselves after a journey that no one can take for us” - Marcel Proust
Metasaga is a journey through the culture, heritage and physical landscape. It allows leaders at all levels to engage in deep self- reflection by exploring their environment. It utilises a strengths-based, whole system approach to evaluate how they operate as leaders and the performance of the organisation they lead. It makes leaders at all levels reframe their thinking using metaphor, narrative, tradition and artefacts found in their own physical environment. It combines the business techniques of non-directive coaching, dialogue and appreciative inquiry with the traditional storytelling teaching of our culture, be that the Norse saga or Gaelic “sgeul”.
Metasaga has been used in both the private, voluntary and public sector, especially Education where pupils and staff have travelled together to create innovative courses on leadership development.
“The Metasaga is a fantastic tool, as it encourages the young people involved to explore their local culture and understand their place in the wider world, while developing key skills such as team work and leadership.”

Module 2: Motivational Interviewing
Duration: 2 separate days: 9.30 am – 4.30 pm
Aim:
To help practitioners to take a person-centred and strength-based approach to supporting people to make changes, using a Motivational Interviewing (MI) approach.
Description
This is the second of a suite of courses which are based on Motivational Interviewing (MI) approaches. MI is widely used in the fields of health and counselling to help explore and resolve issues around intentional behaviour change. MI is a way for a practitioner to take a person-centred and collaborative approach to having a conversation with a person who is in two minds about change; which helps them to find their own reasons for change, and when ready, plan for change. The focus is on demonstrating compassion and acceptance of the individual, affirming their strengths, and on practicing reflective listening and evocative questioning. Practitioners find this MI approach to be liberating as it shifts the focus away from the practitioner finding all the solutions.
The skills and strategies are generic and can be used in any consultation about behaviour change. Although developed for use in the addictions field, MI has been applied to subjects ranging from drug use to parenting, and is increasingly used in the criminal justice field.
The course does not go into detail regarding information about healthy lifestyles, but topic specific elearning modules are available which complement this generic training.
Methods
This is a blended course. The two face to face days of the course are enhanced by short online modules, and by a reflective practice task before day 2. Creative and active learning methods will be used.
Learning Outcomes:
By the end of the course participants will:
• Describe the spirit, principles and concepts of brief negotiation and Motivational Interviewing and how they apply to behaviour change
• Be convinced of the need for a person-centred, empowering approach as a key ingredient for eliciting motivation for change
• Recognise and be able to work with ambivalence to change
• Recognise and be able to manage discord
• Recognise and be able to elicit change talk
• Describe four conversation processes
• Demonstrate MI skills and strategies including listening
• Have demonstrated reflective practice
