This is a special one-hour workshop presented by Design Dept. and led by Liz and Mollie:
We all have emotions at work, but we don’t always know how to use them to our advantage. Success as a leader depends on knowing how and when to express emotion. In this engaging workshop, we share how emotions affect our professional lives and equip leaders with the tools to understand and navigate their own emotions at work.
As our jobs become more collaborative, complex, and stressful—as well as increasingly tied to our identities—effectively embracing emotion will only become more important. We share practical advice and a clear-sighted toolkit for navigating emotion at work as a leader, focusing on how to be “selectively vulnerable.” This workshop includes our emotional expression tendency assessment for all participants.
Sessions will not be recorded.
Registration closes August 15.
