The challenges seem to be mounting both professionally and personally as our capacity seems to deplete. Sometimes we can get stuck and settle into the struggle versus leveraging it to fuel forward. This interactive training explores specific ways resiliency can be elevated through practical strategies and stories. It offers the space and time to practice ideas for progress not perfection. To fuel resiliency, relevancy and relationships even in the middle of challenges.
For those in leadership positions the current challenges and disruptions can lead to exhaustion, reactive responses and apathy both personally and professionally. Often leaders dismiss and push through the experience, leaving them vulnerable to burnout and leading in ways that sabotage the progress they desire, and the connection needed with their teams to accomplish the work and activate the mission.
The board and senior leadership design the organization's culture. They influence the work environments that either inspire transformative work or discourage the organization's ability to attract and develop resilient leaders that guide teams to bringing the mission to life. This training creates resiliency boosting conversations and strategies that foster workplace cultures, positioned with relevancy, relationship, and the fluidity to reframe the inevitable disruptions and detours faced by every organization.
Resilient teams are better equipped to face challenges in ways that allow for necessary innovation, connection and determination to do work that is relevant, links to the mission and engages the strengths of team members in purpose-filled ways.

Needed: conversations that get to the point and build common language on leadership skills and experiences. Through one-hour interactive conversations teams are building authentic community in their organizations by connecting over topics and common experiences that build resilience on teams and in the work they do individually and collectively.
Unintended conflict and confusion happens, exhaustion and disconnection can develop especially during transition, change and stressful situations. Crucial Conversation consults are facilitated conversations designed with clients so participants learn and leverage resources, strategies and that offer new discoveries that will determine next steps.
One conversation. One exchange of words spoken, written, typed, texted, or posted can change the direction and ultimately the outcome. Conversations create culture. And yet, the skill and practice of creating culture building conversations is given little attention and less intention in organizations. Conversations directly impact whether the mission is activated or discarded. Companies can't afford to not give attention to strategies that equip people to have transformational conversations. The very sustainability of the organization is a stake.
To have authentic conversations that lead to sustainable solutions and connection we need to guide and guard the table. Teams that give attention and ongoing intention to these ten principles can create the safe and brave work cultures. Cultures that offer the environments needed to face challenges and make decisions with greater resiliency, relevancy that lead to results!
