Trauma-Informed Leadership Keynote Speaker

America's leaders are in crisis

America's leaders are in the midst of a trauma tsunami, one exacerbated by COVID-19, race and social justice, political division and economic downturn which has impacted each member of the workforce in unique ways. We need a new radical leadership paradigm, one that starts with all of us demanding a psychologically safe workplace with a focus on each employee’s fundamental human needs.

Trauma-Informed Leadership Coaching

One-on-one executive coaching

America is on a collision course between high levels of anxiety and the continued practice of authoritative styles of leadership in the workplace.

  • Practice being a trauma-informed leader 

  • Listen 

  • Problem Solve

  • Set Goals

Trauma-Informed Leadership Retreat

Awakened: Emerging Leader Retreat for Women

Leading people is a responsibility, not an entitlement. You are not entitled to lead just because you occupy a leadership position, have a coaching certification or because you've been with an organization for more than 10 years.  Leading people effectively and creating thriving working environments requires a continuous journey of deep and sometimes difficult personal development, reflection and healing, not just the use of "quick and easy" tools, personality type assessments or implicit bias workshops.

 

Trauma-informed leadership begins with you.


The Awakened,  3-Day Emerging Leader Retreat for Women is for first time supervisors, managers, leaders, and coaches.  Across a span of three days, this small cohort of 8 women will practice connecting, understanding, reflecting, discussing and trusting each other and learn from experts in the field of:

  • neuroscience and learning​

  • trauma and attachment

  • healing modalities 

  • nutrition

  • sleep deprivation

  • trauma-informed leadership and change management 

​

At the end of the retreat,  cohort participants will be able to apply and practice healing modalities, an approach for personal and executive wellness, and a blueprint for creating a trauma-informed organization.
