High-performance team habits have never been more essential. Over the last few years, teams have experienced incredible disruption, massive industry shifts, and unprecedented turnover. Given all of this, culture is more important than ever. Learn what your team needs to thrive – as individuals and as a collective group. Building on long-standing teaming principles, this session focuses on how you can bring out the best across your team, regardless of where you work. Strengthen trust, foster connections, and drive engagement with frequent recognition, developmental feedback and equal access to opportunities. Learn how to balance autonomy with collaboration routines, while providing each team member with the meaning and purpose they crave. Collectively, your team is capable of outstanding results, and we all deserve to work in a culture where we can thrive.
Thriving at work requires a specific mindset: a thrive mindset. Elite performers know success is an inside game, regardless of what is happening around us. Learn proven, evidence-based habits to build your resiliency and skillfully navigate stressful situations. Recognize setbacks and failure as learning opportunities. Build your confidence and improve your presence. Recognize and curate limiting beliefs. Revisit your goals and self-imposed limits, so you can rise to your full potential and beyond. Embrace a thrive mindset to perform at your best when it matters most. These key lessons – the ones we all should have learned much earlier in life – will transform how you work and live.
Wellbeing is an essential foundation for our work and our life. Yet many people struggle to prioritize key behaviors such as sleep, exercise and eating well. Fostering healthy relationships, practicing gratitude, relaxation, and meditation are also crucial for restoring ourselves physically and mentally.
