Overview
Following a pilot meeting in September 2004, Moving On is establishing itself as a self-help group (maybe even an NGO!) interested in providing a space for folks who are seeking to move on from their experience of adult workplace trauma (adult bullying). We hope that gradually the sense of being a victim can be replaced by personal growth towards becoming a stronger and wiser person, who is caring, aware and sensitive to the needs of those around them.
There is a BCC egroup who receive Moving On related emails, minutes of meetings etc; you can join simply by asking in an email - your request will be kept on file.
Good News! Thanks for the support! One of our group has successfully re-entered the working masses; scared stiff the first day but delighted with the second... today is Day Three... Another has re-entered the world of work, encountered yet another bully but dealt with issue successfully. A cyber-member has been re-instated in work after a five year battle... really we can't claim to have been much help on this one but we pass on the news to those who are battling away. Great opportunities! Newstalk 106 with Declan Carty, City Edition 12.15 - 12.30; 14th Oct; 'Richard' and I were guests on Dr. Paul Heslin's program on Office Politics. We surfaced some of the issues and had a couple of callers ring in. Dublin South Community Radio FM 104.9 with Wallace Huey on 'A Life Discovered' 4 - 5 p.m. yesterday 28th Oct Vincent Mooney and Adrienne Crowe were on the air waves... gasp! and it was very challenging as we faced our demons but felt good afterwards. I have a cassette of it and I hope to make copies of it and to be able to work out how to put it on the website soon.
At a recent meeting, Vincent identified a desire to go on radio about our issues in Moving On, he felt that would help him move on: yesterday he had the great courage to go on air as himself and not under an assumed name. It felt good to do it!! Planning ahead... We are hoping to have a workshop soon of facilitated role playing confrontational and bullying situations; if anyone is interested maybe they can get in touch. At a recent meeting someone said they thought this would help them to move on - so let's try it! ...ambitiously (why not?)Meetings are planned for the First and Third Mondays of each month (01/11/04 & 15/11/04; 06/12/04 & 20/12/04) at 20:00 - 21:30 in SERAPH, 15 Heytesbury St. Dublin 8.
