Listener Appreciation and Support
by GnomedBinary
Last post
 June 21st
...See more So I wanted to make this thread because I've been noticing a trend on cups that genuinely upsets me, so I'm drawing attention to it. I have noticed that there has been an increase of listeners leaving because of certain member conduct within the group rooms. Cups is supposed to be a safe and supportive space for EVERYONE, not just members and it seems like listeners are the effects of burnout through no fault of their own. Yes I'm well aware that listeners are volunteers and have no obligation to be here, and that they can step away when needed - however I've noticed that the amount of support listeners have has declined over the years. I've also noticed a rather unfortunate trend of members sometimes ignoring or even disrespecting listeners who are trying to keep chat rooms a supportive environment, or inform new members or fellow listeners of guidelines within the space. This trend has results in a lot of members only paying attention to moderators who do the same thing and that's quite unfair. Being a listener is a thankless job and not everyone appreciates the amount of work they put in to support us, everyone has bad says but it's not fair to take frustration out on the ones trying to provide support. I've noticed a lot of new listeners are unaware of the programs that are available to support them, and I've also noticed and heard through the grape vine that said programs have declined in quality. I want to draw attention the Mentorship program, and I want to remind people what it should be rather than what I've heard it's like now because I think a lot of people have forgotten. So here are what I think are appropriate goals for the mentorship program: * Mentors should NEVER consult Noni for providing feedback to mentees, feedback needs to stay genuine and should come from the mentor's own experience as a listener. * Mentors should actively engage with their mentees, teaching them valuable skills or lessons they've learned as a listener - mentorship should never be passive. * Mentor leadership roles should have limited slots, and given to new applicants at the end of each year to prevent burnout and disinterest. * Listeners who are Peer Support should be proactive with making sure fellow listeners feel appreciated if feeling invalidated by members. * Listeners should be encouraged to share frustrations and issues within the Cups community, leaders should be proactive in facilitating solutions to best support listeners who are struggling. While change doesn't happen overnight, I think it's important to raise awareness that this happens and if something doesn't happen - more listeners are going to leave because of the lack of support they receive. ļ»æTaglist: @Heather225Ā @Amanda84Ā @LoveHashira (Feel free to add to the list, I know there are more who'd like to see this)

Discussion 05: Ethical, Cultural, and Group Management Issues
by ASilentObserver
Last post
 January 30th
...See more Please note: In order to successfully complete the program, you must respond to this post. Your comment/response should answer the questions/show that you completed the given activity (if any). Read the post carefully and implement the learning in the chat rooms. If you didn't participate in Discussion 04: Group Leadership , then check here! [https://www.7cups.com/forum/GroupSupport_168/GroupLeadershipDynamicsDevelopmentCourseStartHere_2184/Discussion04GroupLeadership_233712/] This discussion highlighted some of the major points related to ethical, cultural, and group management The competent group leaders act ethically in leading the groups. And, achieving this type of competence requires more than good intentions. Many well-intended group leaders have engaged in an activity while lacking solid ethical principles. It could probably be because of unawareness of the code of conduct and guidelines. So, a high level of familiarity with the guidelines is important so they act as professionals and leaders while leading any group. A few points to remember: Privacy and Confidentiality. It could be possible a group leader may also be a long term listener for a member. Members might have shared their situation in detail with them in a 1:1 setup. But, when you are a group leader, you need to ensure you are not bringing up the matter discussed in 1:1 with members unless the members themselves bring up the topic and discuss it with the rest of the group as well. Follow Community Guidelines. Preach what you can follow. As a group leader, you would need to intervene from time to time to ensure the group is running effectively. Reminding users that they follow community and chatroom guidelines while participating. But, at the same time, remember to be the first to follow the guidelines too. So, you are able to model the role behavior in the groups. Make unbiased decisions. In a group, everyone is equal to you as a leader. Even if you communicate with some of them more frequently than others. If anything goes wrong or you find anyone being unsupportive or unacceptable behavior, take the decisions without any bias. So, the group could trust you and know that you are impartial and there for everyone and against wrong behaviors. For more, here are the community guidelines. [https://www.7cups.com/about/communityGuidelines.php] Members in the group come from different backgrounds, demographics, and cultural differences. So, as a leader, it is significant to respect and acknowledge the cultural differences and highlight the common grounds to connect all members of the group. Such behavior allows members to feel inclusive and comfortable in the groups to share. And the group management issues include conflict management. You may observe that sometimes misunderstanding or disagreement causes conflict between two or more people leading to an unsupportive and unhealthy environment in the room. So as a leader, it is your time to take action and settle down the conflict to ensure room and group stay supportive and comfortable around each other. Spontaneity is the key to restrict such events from happening. Discussion: What is one ethical, cultural, or group management issue you recognized in the room? What would you do to handle it? Activity: Respond to at least two of your fellow trainees' comments with thoughts on their share. After fulfilling the requirements of this post, [https://www.7cups.com/forum/GroupLeadershipDevelopment_206/DiscussionsDen_2203/Discussion06DiversityAmongMembersintheGroup_233714/]please check out the next discussion here.
