An incredible episode with Director of Research - Professor Ben Jackson from The Kids Research Institute Australia - a masterful lesson in communication skills.

Our role as clinicians involves a whole lot of communication and there are evidence based approaches for how we communicate. This is so important because whilst communication skills are often referred to as 'soft skills', they are the key to understanding people.

In this week's episode, expect to learn about the role of the Self Determination Theory in motivational regulation, how motivational interviewing can move us along the continuum from from have to, to want to, to love to, if SMART goals the only way to set goals. how to bring people along the journey through some key negotiation skills and why the word "yet" is so powerful.
