Rewiring Your Brain and Changing Your Baseline Stress Tolerance
Working professionals and leaders often face a variety of challenges that can be addressed through the Conscious Leadership Accelerator (CLA) program.
“Conflict is what happens, when people come together to do meaningful work, and fail to pay attention to the relationship between them.”
Personal obstacles include:
-
- Desiring to consistently practice mindfulness but can’t commit
- Harm caused by thoughts and behaviors that are unconscious and reactive
- Disempowering experiences of navigating change, overwhelming challenges
- Inability to think creatively (reacting) in the face of complex problems
Relational challenges include:
-
- Unresolved conflict that looms as a result of navigating continuous change
- Unintentional harm we cause when we are unconscious in how we interact
- Inability to stay in relationship, while navigating creative or collaborative tension
- Personal triggers, history and baggage getting in the way of effective communication
“The conversation is the relationship.”
Organizational problems include:
-
- Failed attempts at personal and professional leadership development
- A culture of ‘shared victimhood’
- Staying stuck or stifled in stress cycles
- Turnover of talented people, who will naturally move away from energy-depleting workplaces
