The Brisbane Institute of
Strengths Based Practice (Inc) was founded in
2006 by Dr Venkat Pulla, to support approaches
that promote resilience as opposed to dealing
with deficits.
A small robust group of
believers in strengths approaches and Gandhian
principles of ‘self reliance’ manage the
activities of the Institute.
The first group or that
constituted the board came from a range of
professional backgrounds such as social work,
psychology, media, accountancy and digital art.
Although, Brisbane based
and Australian, the Institute’s true partners
reside in many states in Australia and also come
from the rest of the world.
Professionals and lay
people from various alternate therapies, health
including psychiatry, Social Sciences, Human
Services, biology neuro-sciences, pure sciences
aboriginal people’s development, education and
management that believe work with and advocate
strengths based practices have joined us in
several of our initiatives.
United Kingdom, South
Africa, Malaysia, USA, Bosnia and Herzegovina,
India, New Zealand, Pakistan, Netherlands,
Thailand, Papua New Guinea, Slovenia, Singapore,
Sri Lanka, Netherlands, Canada, Germany, Poland,
Israel, Austria, Nigeria, Myanmar, China,
Taiwan, and Peru are some countries that have
found interactions with us through conferences
and training to be meaningful to them.
The networks that have
built through such interactions have produced
great friendships, reinforcing conversations and
journeying together through strengths approach
to increase coping, build hope in all societies.
Since its inception the
Institute has flourished offering meaningful,
affordable conference and training strategies
that bring together people from various NGOs,
Government and Private and corporate sector,
International agencies, Universities and
Research Institutes together to engage in
conversations that aim to influence and create a
more positive world in Australia and the rest of
the world.
People from diverse
backgrounds are attracted to this inward looking
practice. For example, teachers utilise such
strategies with their students, helping
professionals engage with clients to fulfil
their potential, and employers and HRD Managers
are deploying strength based performance
appraisals with their employers.
The Institute banks with
Commonwealth Bank of Australia.
