2022 Annual Conference
We share practical advice and a clear-sighted toolkit for navigating emotion at work as a leader.

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 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.

Learning Objectives:

  • Understanding how to be selectively vulnerable
  • Identifying your own emotional expression style
  • Working with teams to help them become emotionally fluent
Date(s) & Time(s):
