Leadership Development
COACHING CONVERSATIONS:
A practical, positive approach supporting others to aspire and achieve.
Finding our way through myriad options of professional life takes self-awareness, goal orientation, improvisation, and support. In this interactive workshop, you will explore a process of coaching others that helps them move from insight to action.
LEAD WITH OUR STRENGTHS
The way we do work is changing: It’s more creative, more collaborative and faster-paced than ever before — and we struggle to keep up. The good news is that managers and employees want to learn and grow. Based on the Gallup CliftonStrengths®, this interactive half-day workshop supports team members to learn a shared Strengths-based language and development approach. They gain personal insight and effectively relate to one another, harness the power of productive conflict, and increase group cohesion. Strengths-based development immediately changes team conversations. It creates more positive dialogue and boosts the team's overall engagement and performance.
THE VOICE OF LEADERSHIP
This one-day experiential course explores the meaning and value of authentic voice—the foundation of effective leadership. You will learn a framework for understanding the role of voice in mobilizing people to tackle tough problems, and its impact on your success as a leader on teams and within your organization.
Conflict Engagement
Handling Difficult Conversations
Collaborative problem solving offers individuals and teams a common language and approach for addressing difficult issues early. This course provides a framework and tools that allow you to create the conditions for dialogue, explore options, build mutual agreement and improve performance in the future.
Leading Teams Through Conflict

Storytelling
STORIES THAT LEAD: Claiming your power to lead at work and in your life
Stories are creative strategies that can inspire profound results. Explore three types of stories and how they help us show up as leaders so we can build connection with those who might follow.
STORIES THAT ENGAGE: Shaping workplace culture one story at a time
Our workplace is perfectly organized to give us the results we are currently experiencing. Without awareness, our natural story-telling talents can create a toxic culture of drama and dysfunction. But with intent, we can shape stories that build trust and engagement.
The Power of Stories to Shape Organizational Results
It’s easy to get caught up in the organization-speak of strategic visions, logic models, and lean process improvement, but how do they align with the purpose and passion you bring to your work and the priorities of your organization? Learn three tools to shape stories with purpose and practice shaping your origin and impact stories.
