First initiated in 2016 by Rivca Rubin./p>p>The way we move through the world is hugely shaped by language, from our day-to-day communication to our internal thought patterns, our relationships with ourselves and others, to our attitude and approach to life. As thinking and speaking are so habitual, the language we use and the impact it can have on our daily interactions and stream of consciousness goes largely unnoticed./p>p>Our communications today are still riddled with phrases and concepts that cultivate hierarchies and uphold inequalities. If our intention is to move to environments that nurture mutual benefit, promote autonomy and responsible living, we can choose to make active shifts in our intention and language that facilitate, rather than hinder this; Upwording./p>p>When intention changes, the impact is instant – even very small changes create instant positive impacts with self and others./p>/p>In this global moment of increasingly divisive, fear-driven politics, Upwording can lift our thinking quickly, facilitating a collective re-imagining of what else could be possible, to action towards more satisfied, invigorated and sustainable interactions; relationships; family lives; workplaces; societies; cultures; a desirable global world for all./p>p>This is a grand vision and it is pragmatically achievable through Upwording – with ourselves, partners and family, our peers, colleagues and students, strangers and friends alike, and our children, right from birth./p>p>Upwording: words change worlds. Join the movement./p> p>If you would like to get involved and help achieve critical mass, email a hrefmailto:communicate@upwording.com>communicate@upwording.com/a> to register your engagement, keep informed, learn how to Upword, or be part of disseminating and developing Upwording.

We have since delivered workshops and presentations (in the UK, Czech Republic, Germany and South Africa), and apply the Uptimism approach to all of our facilitation, moderation, mediation and training. This year, we continue our presentations and workshops at Conferences, Festivals and Events, starting off in January 2018 at Dortmunds NRW Landesbüro Freie Darstellende Künste and Frankfurts Künstlerhaus Mousonturm. This year, we launch the two-stage Upword language training programme, begin developing a short book and throughout the year will be in residence at Islington Mill, Salford working with artists to design Upword inspired iconography.

Her preparation in advance of the meeting she facilitated and her management of the group on the day was professional, calming and objective. The environment she created and the ground rules she laid down ensured everyone had a say, felt able to say what they thought and created a good outcome. I would have no hesitation in using Rivca again in the future.” br/>strong>- Sally Joynson, CEO Screen Yorkshire/strong>/p> p>Rivcas ability to ask a well-timed open question has unlocked many opportunities for my clients/ projects during the times I have used her skills. Her preparation and planning are detailed, her presence in the room attentive, and her assistance in getting agreement and action most effective. Having done training with her too, I would highly recommended it for anyone who wants to learn how to communicate and facilitate with clarity.br/>strong>-Laura Drane, Consultant/strong>/p> p>“Bringing Rivca in to facilitate a number of sessions has moved a fairly complex partnership project on considerably. Her ability to listen, probe, reflect back and hold a strong overview of the all aspects of the process was invaluable. Her confidence, enthusiasm and humour put people at ease and her ability to be strong /tough when needed got people working effectively. As project manager, working with Rivca has been really valuable – we were able to plan and scope out the sessions together as well as reflect on outcomes and issues. The first session was so productive we have now brought her in to facilitate a further two sessions.” br/>strong>-Sue Todd, Screen Heritage UK Programme, Regional Manager/strong>/p> p>“Rivca is undoubtedly one of the few trainer/ facilitators currently working in the UK, whose understanding of human interactions is reflected in her confident and humorous delivery style. This in turn is matched by high personal integrity and superb attention to the issues of importance to others, I cannot recommend her highly enough.” br/>strong>- Viv Lever, Staff and Educational Developer, York St John University/strong>/p> p>“Her flexible, open approach inspires trust and confidence. She has been instrumental in developing effective teamwork and cohesion amongst the core staff team following a period of challenge and change. The mutual spirit of trust and respect generated has had a huge impact and enabled strong and lasting collaborations.” br/>strong>- Nancy Barrett, Director, Creative Partnerships Greater Manchester/strong>/p> p>“Ranging from coaching to facilitating to training, the work Rivca has done has made a considerable impact on staff in all areas of the College. Her innovative and practical approach has not only enabled a diverse community of people from the Principal to the Porters to handle difficult changes but, for many, has also resulted in new ways of thinking positively about change and conflict.” br/>strong>- Dr Judy Giles, York St John University/strong> /p> p>“When working with a University senior team -Vice Chancellor, Deputy VC and Pro-VC and the Senior Leadership Team, Rivca facilitated them to fully understand the strategic significance of how they communicate not only with each other in terms of embodying the core values of the organisation and illustrating this through personal action, but also directly creating opportunities for them to envisage how they might create an ecology where radical sector change is viewed as a place for opportunities and development.” br/>strong>- Professor Steve Purcell, Professor of International Cultural Development York St John University/strong>/p> p>“Rivca is good at probing and drawing things out, and listening, and also straight forward and deal with what’s at hand. She has no vested interest in the debate which is vital. She hears and safeguards somebody’s point of view however apparently negative or challenging that point of view may sound, capturing the positive essence of an essentially negative contribution.” br/>strong>- anonymous/strong>/p> p>“I thought you did exactly the job we needed you to do at that moment. Our conversations in advance helped you get the tone and the feeling right and I do believe that people trusted you in the room. We needed a light touch and you gave that yet also allowed people to express their deeper feelings.” br/>strong>- Peter Moser, Artistic Director More Music, Morecambe/strong>/p> p>“Now our group can speak very openly and honestly in our sessions, and that is down to Rivca…“ br/>strong>- Member of Staff Pioneer Projects/strong>/p> a nametraining-quotes>TRAINING FEEDBACK/a> p>“I went to Rivca after being asked to facilitate an important leadership development session at Heatherwick Studio. Rivca was fantastic at tailoring her ‘Facilitating with Ease’ course with specific reference to the work I was going to be undertaking and extremely sensitive to my pace and needs at all times. She showed a genuine care and commitment to the work I was doing. I would thoroughly recommend this course, and Rivca herself as a person, to anyone who lacks confidence or knowledge- I came away with both.“ br/>strong>– Emily Gottlieb, Royal Opera House/strong>/p> p>“Your style is fab ;-) I can’t bear being patronised or bored (which usually happens to me in training) but you make it hugely interesting. And amusing.” br/>strong>- Claire Frawley, Dance City Creative Partnerships/strong>/p> p>“I would like to thank you for an inspiring three days. I found doing your course incredibly useful and it has helped me in lots of ways - I guess the main thing has been that I have been able to step back from situations and be more objective and less emotional about encounters as a whole.”br/>strong>- Kate Hobson, Programmer Creative Partnerships East Lancashire/strong>/p> p>“I feel you are a real person, not a pretend, to be a master in so and so..., ego character. I feel I can reach out to you, helping me over shyness and I can ask questions without the fear to sound stupid. You use a lot of humor and your own life experience to make it lively, entertaining and human. I feel curious in deepening some issues and go further than I normally would. It feels to me that you have curiosity in the subjects and knowledge, experience and understanding, so that I can trust to try out in a new way. So in other words; I think you hold the space really well, without moving on to fast so to give us time to really experience an exercise and not just touching on the service.” br/>strong>- Sophie Ferman Course Delegate/strong>/p> p>“… the course gave me a renewed sense of confidence, and helped me to think about getting back in control of my life. Before then, I felt that things were happening to me over which I had no influence, but now I’m able to think more clearly about what I want, and how I might plan effectively to achieve it.” br/>strong>- Jennifer Vickers Course Delegate/strong>/p> p>“I would describe Rivca’s approach as direct and friendly, grounded, clear, inclusive, generous, deliciously brain-frying in its intensity and fullness, with a welcome dose of humour and lightness.” br/>strong>- Jo Shapland Course Delegate/strong>/p> p>“Practical, inspiring, no-nonsense, informed, fun. Rivca’s style is great for me as I know she will move at a quick pace which I like and that everything is fully practiced and comes from a place of experience.” br/>strong>- Mairead Turner Course Delegate/strong>/p> p>“Rivcas style is both revealing and revelatory, direct to the core of the issue, while also leading in many directions.” br/>strong>– Lucy Course Delegate/strong>/p> p>“They were the most interesting and useful 3 days Ive had in years and the understanding and the skills you taught are already helping enormously. I found it all quite profound actually!” br/>strong>- James Boardwell Course Delegate/strong>/p> p>“Rivcas style is that of the well-informed, well-practiced professional - her relaxed manner communicating a mastery of her subject matter.” br/>strong>- Wayne Thexton Course Delegate/strong>/p> p>“Your approach, presentation and delivery felt smart, unique and authentic. Im inspired!”br/>strong>- Anisa Saleh Course Delegate/strong>/p> p>“Even though I regularly facilitate discussions I was amazed at how much there was to learn for me and after two days of training with Rivca I can honestly say I am now more prepared than ever!” br/>strong>- Lindsey West Course Delegate/strong>/p> p>“It felt like several little light bulbs in dark corners of my brain were being switched on. The course will help you to better understand others, deal with conflict, be more assertive (without playing mind games or causing fights) and find your place in life and work. Highly recommended.” br/>strong>- Si Waite, Artist and Musician/strong>/p> a namecoaching-quotes>COACHING FEEDBACK/a> p>“Coaching has been a lifeline for me over the last couple of years as Ive been faced with taking my organisation through significant change. Having the support of a trusted coach provides just that space you need as a leader to work through issues and has both renewed my confidence and helped me to unlock potential in myself and my team. I would also say its really helped me to become happier in my own personal leadership skin and find a more satisfying work/ life balance. Im a real convert! ” br/>strong>- Kate Brindley, Director Middlesbrough Institute of Modern Art/strong>/p> p>“Working with Rivca gave me clarity when I felt clouded and confused, and it put me back in touch with what I really wanted from work and from life, a perspective I had managed to lose in the anxiety and frustration of my work. Many of the good things I visualised with her have now happened, which shows her gift and skills, and also the power of working with someone who can help you unlock your own truth.” br/>strong>- Simon Seligman Coachee/strong>/p> p>“When encountering wide ranging issues during a long career you need regular to take regular stops to take stock and learn. I have found myself returning to Rivca Rubin again and again to help unpick or bring clarity to situations for me and my teams in various posts. This is because Rivca Rubins skills always produce resolution or, at the very least a finding the loose string to unpick the knot. More recently I asked Rivca Rubin deliver personal coaching as I wanted change and new challenges but wasnt sure what or how. The sessions were insightful, responsive and worked because they did not follow an off the peg model of coaching and worked beautifully. So much so that I regularly tell peers to bring Rivca Rubin in when they feel things need to change, either within their organisation or within themselves.” br/>strong>-Andrea Hawkins, Independent Arts Developer & Producer/strong>/p> p>“Coaching has been an invaluable tool in enabling me to take on increased leadership responsibilities, feel more confident in those abilities and create time and space to develop new ideas and think strategically. The benefits have considerably outweighed the time spent.” br/>strong>- Erica Love, Director PiCL/strong>/p> p>The experience of being coached and then training to be a coach, completely transformed the way I approach my role as a leader. The biggest impact has been becoming able to differentiate between management and leadership and being conscious applying them appropriately.” br/>strong>- anonymous/strong>/p> p>Thanks for your coaching it really really helped - it gave me momentum and some bottle! br/>strong>- anonymous/strong>/p> /article> article idconsultants> h2>Consultants/h2> p>Rivca Rubin collaborates with a range of highly experienced consultants, including Charles Lauder, Venu Dhupa, Eva Hartmann, Emma Haughton, Michele Taylor, Steve Purcell and Federico Schwindt. p>Previous co-trainers and facilitators have included Linda Green/BBC, Laura Drane, Lesa Dryburgh, Sanson Sansom, Kate McCoy, Andy Readman, Deborah Barnard, Robert Meadows, Sara Robinson, and Nancy Barrett./p> /article> /section> section idorganisational-section> article idorganisational> h2>Organisational/h2> p>We provide a range of services for organisations, teams, managers and leaders, including:/p> ol> li>a classorganisational href#organisational-leadership-coaching>Leadership & Executive/a>/li> li>a classorganisational href#organisational-consultancy>Consultancy/a>/li> li>a classorganisational href#organisational-staff-training>Staff Development/a>/li> li>a classorganisational href#organisational-facilitation>Facilitation/a>/li> li>a classorganisational href#organisational-idea-generation>Idea Generation/a>/li> li>a classorganisational href#organisational-mediation>Mediation/a>/li> /ol> /article> article idorganisational-leadership-coaching> h2>Leadership & Executive/h2> p>An efficient and effective service that supports you in removing barriers to access your unique personal advantage.

A world of cyber attacks, offshore accounts and an outpouring of decades of deeply-ingrained systems of sexual harassment and abuse of power./p> p>We know a shift from this can feel implausible, Utopic; too large to actually take place.

Through our work, we have acquired techniques, theories and tools from a variety of the most successful methodologies including Non Violent Communication, Neuro Linguistic Programming and a range of Behavioural Change and Systems Theories. To these we have added our own brand of creative inquiry…and humour. Our experiences of working in different countries, with different cultures and religions, has shaped a versatile, empathic approach that allows us to be at ease working across many arenas.

First initiated in 2016 by Rivca Rubin./p>p>The way we move through the world is hugely shaped by language, from our day-to-day communication to our internal thought patterns, our relationships with ourselves and others, to our attitude and approach to life. As thinking and speaking are so habitual, the language we use and the impact it can have on our daily interactions and stream of consciousness goes largely unnoticed./p>p>Our communications today are still riddled with phrases and concepts that cultivate hierarchies and uphold inequalities. If our intention is to move to environments that nurture mutual benefit, promote autonomy and responsible living, we can choose to make active shifts in our intention and language that facilitate, rather than hinder this; Upwording./p>p>When intention changes, the impact is instant – even very small changes create instant positive impacts with self and others./p>/p>In this global moment of increasingly divisive, fear-driven politics, Upwording can lift our thinking quickly, facilitating a collective re-imagining of what else could be possible, to action towards more satisfied, invigorated and sustainable interactions; relationships; family lives; workplaces; societies; cultures; a desirable global world for all./p>p>This is a grand vision and it is pragmatically achievable through Upwording – with ourselves, partners and family, our peers, colleagues and students, strangers and friends alike, and our children, right from birth./p>p>Upwording: words change worlds.

We have since delivered workshops and presentations (in the UK, Czech Republic, Germany and South Africa), and apply the Uptimism approach to all of our facilitation, moderation, mediation and training. This year, we continue our presentations and workshops at Conferences, Festivals and Events, starting off in January 2018 at Dortmunds NRW Landesbüro Freie Darstellende Künste and Frankfurts Künstlerhaus Mousonturm. This year, we launch the two-stage Upword language training programme, begin developing a short book and throughout the year will be in residence at Islington Mill, Salford working with artists to design Upword inspired iconography.

Her preparation in advance of the meeting she facilitated and her management of the group on the day was professional, calming and objective. The environment she created and the ground rules she laid down ensured everyone had a say, felt able to say what they thought and created a good outcome. I would have no hesitation in using Rivca again in the future.” br/>strong>- Sally Joynson, CEO Screen Yorkshire/strong>/p> p>Rivcas ability to ask a well-timed open question has unlocked many opportunities for my clients/ projects during the times I have used her skills. Her preparation and planning are detailed, her presence in the room attentive, and her assistance in getting agreement and action most effective. Having done training with her too, I would highly recommended it for anyone who wants to learn how to communicate and facilitate with clarity.br/>strong>-Laura Drane, Consultant/strong>/p> p>“Bringing Rivca in to facilitate a number of sessions has moved a fairly complex partnership project on considerably. Her ability to listen, probe, reflect back and hold a strong overview of the all aspects of the process was invaluable. Her confidence, enthusiasm and humour put people at ease and her ability to be strong /tough when needed got people working effectively. As project manager, working with Rivca has been really valuable – we were able to plan and scope out the sessions together as well as reflect on outcomes and issues. The first session was so productive we have now brought her in to facilitate a further two sessions.” br/>strong>-Sue Todd, Screen Heritage UK Programme, Regional Manager/strong>/p> p>“Rivca is undoubtedly one of the few trainer/ facilitators currently working in the UK, whose understanding of human interactions is reflected in her confident and humorous delivery style. This in turn is matched by high personal integrity and superb attention to the issues of importance to others, I cannot recommend her highly enough.” br/>strong>- Viv Lever, Staff and Educational Developer, York St John University/strong>/p> p>“Her flexible, open approach inspires trust and confidence. She has been instrumental in developing effective teamwork and cohesion amongst the core staff team following a period of challenge and change. The mutual spirit of trust and respect generated has had a huge impact and enabled strong and lasting collaborations.” br/>strong>- Nancy Barrett, Director, Creative Partnerships Greater Manchester/strong>/p> p>“Ranging from coaching to facilitating to training, the work Rivca has done has made a considerable impact on staff in all areas of the College. Her innovative and practical approach has not only enabled a diverse community of people from the Principal to the Porters to handle difficult changes but, for many, has also resulted in new ways of thinking positively about change and conflict.” br/>strong>- Dr Judy Giles, York St John University/strong> /p> p>“When working with a University senior team -Vice Chancellor, Deputy VC and Pro-VC and the Senior Leadership Team, Rivca facilitated them to fully understand the strategic significance of how they communicate not only with each other in terms of embodying the core values of the organisation and illustrating this through personal action, but also directly creating opportunities for them to envisage how they might create an ecology where radical sector change is viewed as a place for opportunities and development.” br/>strong>- Professor Steve Purcell, Professor of International Cultural Development York St John University/strong>/p> p>“Rivca is good at probing and drawing things out, and listening, and also straight forward and deal with what’s at hand. She has no vested interest in the debate which is vital. She hears and safeguards somebody’s point of view however apparently negative or challenging that point of view may sound, capturing the positive essence of an essentially negative contribution.” br/>strong>- anonymous/strong>/p> p>“I thought you did exactly the job we needed you to do at that moment. Our conversations in advance helped you get the tone and the feeling right and I do believe that people trusted you in the room. We needed a light touch and you gave that yet also allowed people to express their deeper feelings.” br/>strong>- Peter Moser, Artistic Director More Music, Morecambe/strong>/p> p>“Now our group can speak very openly and honestly in our sessions, and that is down to Rivca…“ br/>strong>- Member of Staff Pioneer Projects/strong>/p> a nametraining-quotes>TRAINING FEEDBACK/a> p>“I went to Rivca after being asked to facilitate an important leadership development session at Heatherwick Studio. Rivca was fantastic at tailoring her ‘Facilitating with Ease’ course with specific reference to the work I was going to be undertaking and extremely sensitive to my pace and needs at all times. She showed a genuine care and commitment to the work I was doing. I would thoroughly recommend this course, and Rivca herself as a person, to anyone who lacks confidence or knowledge- I came away with both.“ br/>strong>– Emily Gottlieb, Royal Opera House/strong>/p> p>“Your style is fab ;-) I can’t bear being patronised or bored (which usually happens to me in training) but you make it hugely interesting. And amusing.” br/>strong>- Claire Frawley, Dance City Creative Partnerships/strong>/p> p>“I would like to thank you for an inspiring three days. I found doing your course incredibly useful and it has helped me in lots of ways - I guess the main thing has been that I have been able to step back from situations and be more objective and less emotional about encounters as a whole.”br/>strong>- Kate Hobson, Programmer Creative Partnerships East Lancashire/strong>/p> p>“I feel you are a real person, not a pretend, to be a master in so and so..., ego character. I feel I can reach out to you, helping me over shyness and I can ask questions without the fear to sound stupid. You use a lot of humor and your own life experience to make it lively, entertaining and human. I feel curious in deepening some issues and go further than I normally would. It feels to me that you have curiosity in the subjects and knowledge, experience and understanding, so that I can trust to try out in a new way. So in other words; I think you hold the space really well, without moving on to fast so to give us time to really experience an exercise and not just touching on the service.” br/>strong>- Sophie Ferman Course Delegate/strong>/p> p>“… the course gave me a renewed sense of confidence, and helped me to think about getting back in control of my life. Before then, I felt that things were happening to me over which I had no influence, but now I’m able to think more clearly about what I want, and how I might plan effectively to achieve it.” br/>strong>- Jennifer Vickers Course Delegate/strong>/p> p>“I would describe Rivca’s approach as direct and friendly, grounded, clear, inclusive, generous, deliciously brain-frying in its intensity and fullness, with a welcome dose of humour and lightness.” br/>strong>- Jo Shapland Course Delegate/strong>/p> p>“Practical, inspiring, no-nonsense, informed, fun. Rivca’s style is great for me as I know she will move at a quick pace which I like and that everything is fully practiced and comes from a place of experience.” br/>strong>- Mairead Turner Course Delegate/strong>/p> p>“Rivcas style is both revealing and revelatory, direct to the core of the issue, while also leading in many directions.” br/>strong>– Lucy Course Delegate/strong>/p> p>“They were the most interesting and useful 3 days Ive had in years and the understanding and the skills you taught are already helping enormously. I found it all quite profound actually!” br/>strong>- James Boardwell Course Delegate/strong>/p> p>“Rivcas style is that of the well-informed, well-practiced professional - her relaxed manner communicating a mastery of her subject matter.” br/>strong>- Wayne Thexton Course Delegate/strong>/p> p>“Your approach, presentation and delivery felt smart, unique and authentic. Im inspired!”br/>strong>- Anisa Saleh Course Delegate/strong>/p> p>“Even though I regularly facilitate discussions I was amazed at how much there was to learn for me and after two days of training with Rivca I can honestly say I am now more prepared than ever!” br/>strong>- Lindsey West Course Delegate/strong>/p> p>“It felt like several little light bulbs in dark corners of my brain were being switched on. The course will help you to better understand others, deal with conflict, be more assertive (without playing mind games or causing fights) and find your place in life and work. Highly recommended.” br/>strong>- Si Waite, Artist and Musician/strong>/p> a namecoaching-quotes>COACHING FEEDBACK/a> p>“Coaching has been a lifeline for me over the last couple of years as Ive been faced with taking my organisation through significant change. Having the support of a trusted coach provides just that space you need as a leader to work through issues and has both renewed my confidence and helped me to unlock potential in myself and my team. I would also say its really helped me to become happier in my own personal leadership skin and find a more satisfying work/ life balance. Im a real convert! ” br/>strong>- Kate Brindley, Director Middlesbrough Institute of Modern Art/strong>/p> p>“Working with Rivca gave me clarity when I felt clouded and confused, and it put me back in touch with what I really wanted from work and from life, a perspective I had managed to lose in the anxiety and frustration of my work. Many of the good things I visualised with her have now happened, which shows her gift and skills, and also the power of working with someone who can help you unlock your own truth.” br/>strong>- Simon Seligman Coachee/strong>/p> p>“When encountering wide ranging issues during a long career you need regular to take regular stops to take stock and learn. I have found myself returning to Rivca Rubin again and again to help unpick or bring clarity to situations for me and my teams in various posts. This is because Rivca Rubins skills always produce resolution or, at the very least a finding the loose string to unpick the knot.
