Get Started with Planning Your Workshop

Life can be stressful.  Work is even more so!

Most people spend well over half of their waking hours working.

Even if they love their work, they need ways to make it less stressful and more rewarding, otherwise they burn out.

Wellbeing Workshops

That’s where we can help.  We provide dynamic and engaging workshops that do two important things.

First, we engage people right away so they feel safe, energized, and ready to learn.  We do so by combining humor, action and expressive techniques, art therapy, and storytelling with our extensive background in group process.

Next, we teach simple but highly effective techniques for managing stress, preventing burnout, improving wellbeing, and building team morale.

This includes teaching:

  • The difference between productive and destructive stress
  • How to manage difficult situations at work
  • Ways to improve positive communication at work
  • Optimistic and pessimistic styles of thinking and how these impact our work
  • How to identify and mobilize individual and team strengths
  • How to align personal values with the group/organization values and mission
  • How to overcome the tendency to focus on problems over what is working well
  • What positivity in the workplace means
  • How to introduce more of it
  • How to find more meaning and engagement at work

What Attendees Walk Away With:

The organizations that hire us and the people who attend our workshops often voice that they are most appreciative of how informative, inspiring, and even transformative our workshops are. They leave with a fully equipped toolbox of strategies to manage their stress that is uniquely tailored to their strengths, values, and personal and professional mission.  They also learn how to match those with the larger group culture so that they are working with others more effectively and productively.
