VoicePrint Training & Accreditation Programme

What you get

The training & accreditation programme equips you with all you need to start using VoicePrint in your own work as a people and organisational development professional.

The programme consists of two foundational modules, and gives you the opportunity to use the VoicePrint self-perception instrument on two real practice cases of your own. We encourage you to do at least one of these between the first module and the second.

Module 1 gives you the understanding to work with the VoicePrint personal profiling tool to explore your clients’ profiles. Module 2 lets you take part in an expertly facilitated review of your initial experience with the tool, and then familiarises you with the other resources provided to enable VoicePrint practitioners to take their work and their clients beyond diagnosis through development to real competence in practice.

The content, format and support provided in the programme has been progressively developed and refined over time to make your VoicePrint training relevant, efficient and practical, and to enable you to achieve your accreditation at the earliest opportunity. Your certificate of accreditation is awarded as soon as you demonstrate your grasp of VoicePrint through a reflective review of your two practice cases.

Six months after accreditation you will be invited to take part in a Master Class with VoicePrint’s developer, Alan Robertson. The Master Class provides an opportunity for small groups of accredited practitioners to continue to finesse their skill with VoicePrint in an open learning dialogue with Alan and with each other.

Module 1: Through Exploration to Understanding

Explaining the VoicePrint Model:

VoicePrint is designed to be complementary and to add value to other profiling tools

So what is VoicePrint and what makes it different & additive?

Examining Tendency:

Awareness of current tendency is the beginning of the developmental process

How to jointly explore & ‘read’ VoicePrint self-perception profiles

The process is taught with reference throughout to real, anonymised cases

  • ‘Triangles’: the implications of a repertoire: intentions and impacts
  • ‘Tracks’:  regulars, occasionals and tacit strategies
  • ‘Expression’:  the Inner Voice and the Bigger Conversation
  • ‘Pressure Profile’:  inhibition, energy and in-the-moment awareness

Developing Skill:

Diagnosis is only the first step. VoicePrint is designed to develop competence in practice.

Introducing  VoicePrint’s  development resources:

  • Tips for strengthening or de-emphasising specific voices

Participant Practice:

The best way to become adept with using VoicePrint is to accumulate experience using it.
