Workshops & Trainings
Neurodivergence can present in many positive ways— people with ADHD are quick to process and integrate new information into their work, and autistic employees are often adept at focusing on projects for long periods of time. But workplaces are largely created for neurotypical staff members, resulting in conflict and even underperformance from those whose neurotypes differ from the norm. As an effective manager, you know that it’s not possible (or appropriate) to force a neurodivergent employee to think the way everyone else does… but how do you leverage the unique strengths and mitigate the challenges of autistic employees? How do you help employees with ADHD organize and prioritize their work?
A practical, inclusive session to help you understand your workstyle, communicate your needs with clarity, and build a more supportive team culture. Designed for all employees, with insights grounded in neurodiversity.
Has your team been through something hard? Whether it’s the loss of a colleague, a round of layoffs, or another major disruption, your employees need more than business as usual. Bouncing Back: Reconnection and Resiliency After a Crisis helps teams process what happened, reconnect with each other, and rebuild with honesty, clarity, and care.
Are your employees losing their tempers at work? Does the temperature rise whenever there’s conflict? In high-stress workplaces, even the most skilled leaders can get rattled. This session, co-presented by a workplace strategist and a therapist, offers practical tools to help managers stay steady, respond thoughtfully, and lead with clarity—no matter how tense things get.
If your team is experiencing chronic lateness, overwhelm, or a lack of honesty about capacity, a meaningful training about boundaries might be just what the doctor ordered! This interactive session is co-led by a leadership development professional and a therapist, bringing you the best in the art and science of setting appropriate boundaries in the workplace.
Preventing burnout isn’t just about self-care—it’s about building a resilient, high-performing workforce. This interactive workshop equips employees and managers with real-world strategies to sustain energy, prevent disengagement, and create a workplace culture where people thrive instead of burn out. Invest in long-term success by giving your team the tools to stay engaged, productive, and balanced.
Feedback is essential for personal growth, organizational success, and deepening relationships, yet it is often avoided or mishandled due to fear, rejection sensitivity, or discomfort with conflict. This workshop equips participants with tools and strategies to give and receive feedback effectively, fostering a culture of trust, accountability, and openness.
Digging into Dare to Lead together gives teams and organizations a shared language and understanding of what courage looks like within their organization, what gets in the way, and how to build specific courage skills. The Dare to Lead model brings the power of collective courage-building in teams and organizations who are willing to do brave work, have tough conversations, and show up with their whole hearts.
No matter how skilled you are at your job, at some point, you will find yourself in a disagreement. Sometimes the conflict will go well— you are able to hear other viewpoints, articulate your opinion clearly, and work toward a solution that integrates multiple lenses. But conflict often goes another way, resulting in hurt feelings, a deeper entrenchment in original opinions, and one-sided outcomes.
If triangulation, passive-aggression, and indirect communication are challenges at your organization, this workshop will help transform communication styles so employees feel better equipped to rumble* with each other in healthy, effective ways.
All too often, individuals who want to create inclusive environments struggle to engage effectively across lines of difference. Discussions can get heated while everyone tries to keep their cool while discussing issues of diversity, equity, and inclusion, and it can be difficult to know how to navigate multiple points of view.

Not only does trust impact commitment, retention, and financial outcomes, but there are decades of research culminating in the BRAVING trust framework you can use to improve trust immediately.
