Welcome to the 2013 NHS North West Mentoring Scheme Annual Conference. I am delighted to welcome you to the Norton Grange Hotel for our 6th Annual Conference! The theme for this year is “Mentoring to Create Positive Attitudes and Culture in the NHS�. I am sure you appreciate the volume of continued change that is hitting many of our services at a local and regional level and the challenges (both positive and negative) that many staff are facing. When we put together the programme this was at the forefront of our minds and from speaking to and working with our members, it seems to reflect the mood of NHS staff. This year we are lucky to have a variety of facilitators, all of whom are specialists in their subject areas, and I would like to thank them for taking the time to work with us. Whilst you will have made your choices on the workshops you will attend today,
we will of course make all the materials and presentations available for all four workshops after today’s conference on Mentor Net. I am really pleased to see so many old friends and advocates of the Scheme here today who have been with us from the start. I would also like to extend the warmest of welcomes to our members for whom this is their first conference. I hope you get the opportunity meet new mentors and mentees who are part of our ever-growing membership. As always today brings together months of hard work from all of the team and I would like to thank them for once again putting together a fantastic event. This will be my last event in the Scheme and I really feel that our networking and learning events are second to none. I hope you will have an enriching and fulfilling day! www.nwment or ing.nhs.uk

Workshop 1: presented by Cathy Bridge
Beyond Maslow – Values at Work This workshop is focused on the work of Dr. Clare Graves, who proposed a theory of psychological development based on the work of Abraham Maslow. His theory describes how values emerge, how values cluster together in ‘memes’, and the impact that our values have on our daily lives. By the end of the workshop, participants will be able to: • Describe the Graves model and each level within it • Understand how values cause both clashes and harmony at work • Understand where different values are ‘coming from’ and how best to manage people with different values than their own. It will be very useful for those who are working with values at an organisational level, for example those in HR or OD teams. It will also be useful for mentors who are seeking a different way of understanding their mentees.
