Navigating Difficult Conversations
We have been taught that conflict is bad and that arguments get us no where. Conflict and disagreements are a natural part of human relationships and can be a positive experience in your organization.
Good conflict cultivates innovation, creativity, and trust.

You will learn strategies for navigating difficult conversations, strategies for mutual agreements, and conversation starters to set you up for success.
Turn conflict and uncomfortable challenges into new opportunities to strengthen your team.
Radical Care Leadership
Cultivating a culture of “Radical Care” that fosters emotional well-being, enhances productivity, and creates a supportive environment.
Twenty years ago we didn’t really talk about love in the workplace or joy or care. We talked about accountability. We talked about performance. We talked about KPI’s. We told you to leave your kids at home. Don’t worry about them. They’re in daycare somewhere. You don’t get to bring that to work.
If we look at the statistics around mental wellness in our country right now, we’re in crisis. And I believe it’s directly related to how we’re treating people at work.
It’s time to be shifting to being holistic leaders that take care of our people – personally and professionally. What are you doing in your leadership to help those you lead to show up as their whole selves?
