Tuesday Afternoon Skill Builders

Have you ever felt under-appreciated at work? Frustrated with feedback that seemed unjustified? Left out of a decision? Micromanaged? Or uncertain about the future of your role? Unfortunately, these experiences are all too common; and even more unfortunate is the fact that recent neuroscience research suggests we lose our ability to think strategically, logically, and collaboratively in those moments—all the things needed to overcome these challenges and perform at our best. In this session, we’ll explore what happens in the brain when we experience a threat to our social safety, identify the five primary drivers of social well-being, and discover practical ways to leverage these drivers. The brain is a powerful force—learning how it responds to challenging situations at work gives us the strength we need to consistently show up with confidence and competence.
