Description:

Mental fitness and emotional alignment tend to be seen as “nice to have” where, in reality, they are main causes of ineffectiveness and lack of results in teams. In this workshop, we will delve into our own personal makeups and that of our teams to understand how we can move from managing or micro-managing on a daily basis (leading to stress and burnout) to leading teams with resiliency, strength, and grace (leading to a better work environment and results). An ACC certified coach with International Coach Academy and Positive Intelligence™, Robin Yates, brings in multiple coaching modalities for nonprofit leaders to address their own stressors and to instill good practices for themselves and for their teams. We will give you tools that build on your innate sage powers, improve your team’s emotional literacy, and help you identify what your individual team member’s need to deliver upon the work at hand and grow as future leaders.
