Build stronger connections in your practice.

RELATIONAL CAPABILITY

What is Relational Capability training?

OnePlusOne’s relational capability framework brings over 50 years of relationship research into your workplace. The course is designed for anyone who works with others, helping you to explore the practical skills, understanding, and confidence you need to build better relationships.

Why relational capability matters

Relationships are vital to our physical and mental health. In fact, there is very strong evidence showing that good-quality relationships can help people to live longer and happier lives. Despite this, it has never been harder to connect with others, especially in the workplace.

When you develop the skills to really connect with others and build genuine trust, the impact can change both your life and theirs. Relational capability training gives you the confidence to work relationally, no matter the context, strengthening your workplace and supporting positive outcomes for the people you work with.

It’s giving that confidence that if you have had a bad meeting, or if you’ve got a tricky one coming up… you can reflect and think well, actually, I do know how to solve this. There’s evidence that it’s the right thing to do and that for me is really helpful.

I’m now clearer about how I’m talking to people, really making sure that we both know what to expect and having clear expectations from their side… It’s helped build up more trust for us to work better together.
