How Can I Help?

De-escalation in the Workplace

As observations of escalated behaviors have increased, employees who interact with the public need fresh tools for realistic expectations, healthy boundaries, and authentic connection. In this highly interactive workshop, we look at the crucial role of purpose, keys to prevent power struggles, and what to do when you need to exit an interaction.

This workshop focuses on escalation prevention, and mental health for employees and the public they serve. This workshop does not address conflict that includes physical violence, but rather the cumulative weight of engaging with increased anger, outbursts, and anxiety.


DIFFERENTIATED LEADERSHIP:

Leading in an Anxious Workplace

Anxiety at work is at an all-time high. How do we lead ourselves well in this current workplace landscape? This workshop is built on concepts from Edwin Friedman’s groundbreaking work in, A Failure of Nerve. We focus on a practice of self-leadership that is uniquely impactful in reducing anxiety in ourselves and in the workplace. Differentiated Leadership orients towards strength, remains reliably connected even in conflict, rejects blame, and leads with a non-anxious presence.

This workshop will focus on three key areas that make Differentiated Leaders stand out: Knowing Your Voice, Understanding Emotional Triangles, and Moving Forward.
