When we are promoted, we are rarely provided training on how to handle the challenges that are coming our way. This can leave us woefully unprepared for significant shifts, ambiguity and uncertainty.
During these times, graceful leadership through change can seem impossible, but it begins with investing in our own resilience. Learn to bounce back from setbacks to stay effective in the face of tough demands and adversity—as an individual and a team.
COVID-19: Due to the novel Coronavirus (COVID-19), we will be hosting this workshop remotely to protect the health of our community and team.
Format: Live workshop on Zoom, 3 hours
Note: This content does overlap with the resilience section in the Leading Change workshop.
Scholarships
We’re excited to partner with Shopify UX to provide 5 scholarships to this workshop to underrepresented folks, non-profits and leaders whose education budgets have been affected by COVID-19.

Remote format
Our remote workshops are based on the success of our in-person learning principles. Our goal is help participants learn not only from our instructors, but industry experts and peers. The day will be a mix of short lectures, solo reflection, and group activities. It’s a highly participatory remote workshop. Participants should be prepared to participate in a quiet space with stable wifi.

Any leader looking to build their personal resilience and support their team in investing in their own.
