Approaching Organizations as Organisms

Applying ABA principles for effective supervision and operational management.

BCBAs are highly skilled clinicians, but only when dealing with organisms as their subjects. When working with the systems and environments that we develop in our ORGANIZATIONS, we seem to forget our ABA training. This is not the fault of the BCBA (or the Organizational managers) but is due to the fact that we usually receive limited training in organizational leadership and management. Yet, we supervise staff, influence culture, and impact agency systems daily and seldom think how the ORGANIZATION (like any other ORGANISM), lives, breathes and reacts to the environment in the ways that ABA teaches us. This training bridges that gap by applying ABA to: Staff Supervision, Organizational Culture and Needs Assessment, Performance Management and Operational Excellence, Leadership Effectiveness.

I really enjoyed this course. The information was clear, practical, and easy to relate to real-life situations. I especially liked the focus on using positive reinforcement and creating supportive environments instead of relying on punishment. It gave me ideas that I can apply in my own practice, and the presenter made the topic engaging and easy to understand.
