ChangeTalk?

Change Talk

11

Change talk is any self expressed

language that is an argument for

change

(Miller and Rollnick, 2012)

TIP

12

Change Talk has been shown to be a pre-cursor to change. The more change talk a client is saying (something you can help to evoke), the more likely they are to adhere to and make a change.

(Butterworth, 2008)

Have a chat to a person near you. If you dont want to have a go, ask to join another group to observe.

Talk to your partner about a change youve been thinking of making but havent yet made. As theyre talking, notice the different types of Change Talk. Use OQs and Rs to learn more. Next slide for DARNCAT

Ques%ons

Q: Knowing when to plan?A: This is something we will cover in more depth this %me. Knowing when not to move to planning is as important as knowing when to go to planning. Youll be hearing a lot of change talk, mainly mobilising change talk but also preparatory. Moving to planning can be done in a number of ways, a nice way of tes&ng the water can be with a summary of change talk and a follow up ques%ons such as- Where does this leave us?- What if anything do you think you might do?- Whats next now?Depending on an affirma%ve answer youll know that now is the %me to move to planning.

Well discuss when not to move to planning more in next months MI Club in March.
