Workshops and Professional Development Services

Featured Workshop:

Change Management

““Normality is a paved road: It's comfortable to walk, but no flowers grow on it.” -Vincent Van Gogh.

Call it what you will: Readiness. Resilience. Agility. In work and in life there’s one true constant, and that’s the presence of change. The question is: How will you and your organization respond?

In this workshop, we take an organizational change and break it down into 4 very important steps:

  • Casting the Vision

  • Transferring Knowledge and Skill

  • Active Application

  • Results and Reinforcement

We can use a provided case study, or an upcoming change effort in your organization.

As with all of my workshops, consultation and evaluation are included. Coaching follow up is also available for an additional fee.

Featured Workshop:

Create-Lead-Learn

“You can only express in words what words are capable of expressing-- what language can communicate. Painting has nothing to do with that.” -Mark Rothko

“Create Lead Learn” is a workshop that uses art as context for professional development in almost any area. We’ll use activities, discussion, and a step-by-step paint project to create a fun and thoughtful learning environment. The best part? Everyone gets to create their own art to take home.

No art talent is required, and we can cover most professional development topics.

Here are just a few:

  • Collaboration and Teamwork for in-house and dispersed teams

  • Discover your Strengths

  • Building Resilience and Caring for Self

  • Authenticity and Belonging

  • Managing Performance

  • Authenticity

    Some call it Emotional Intelligence, but I call it Authenticity. It’s the awareness of what makes us who we are, the intentional development of that identity, the ways you express yourself, the habits that align with who you are, and the ability to engage with others in a way that allows everyone to be their true self.

  • Leadership

    Leadership is not defined by your title, but by your values and behaviors as a leader. Through introspection and mindful reflection, we can come to understand our leadership style. Through an interactive process with those around us we can understand our leadership behaviors. Through intentional practice and coaching, we can improve how we lead.

  • Teamwork

    We exist in a community of interdependent professionals. (Ok, most of the workforce does.) Understanding how we blend our talents, whether it be in harmony or conflict, will impact our effectiveness and our wellness. We can achieve a lot of team growth through training, open communication, and play.

Every workshop is better with Art.

For a small, per person fee, you can add an interactive art element to any workshop. I’ll bring all the supplies, including art paper or canvas, paint, brushes, aprons and surface protection. This addition will create a relaxed learning environment and build stronger community within your team.

If you are interested in a stand alone art event for a special occasion such as a conference, birthday, social event, annual meeting or retreat, book a custom event. They’re amazing.

Looking forward.

 

Let’s talk. I want to learn more about you, your organization, and where you want to go.

We’ll create a plan and schedule based on your individual goals.

In the end, you will experience the benefits of an open, authentic, healthy workplace.
