Testimonials

”Immediate utility! I left for a meeting during the session and was immediately able to apply supportive statements and question my negative thoughts in a director-level one-on-one. I want to die with gratitude. The examples that were drawn out were great.“

— Stephen, Google Participant

“When I feel included, when people feel included they can face racism, social injustice,…privilege and fragility and all the ways we get triggered and don't say what is true or necessary.”

Courageous Belonging

 

Human-made hierarchies of value are woven into each of us, as well as our societal fabric. So, how do we look at all forms of “otherizing”, to build an understanding of the mechanisms of dehumanization and create a deeper sense of belonging for all? This Courageous Belonging workshop offers an opportunity to increase our awareness, skills, and social support to begin to create respectful and supportive relationships and environments, the basis of highly effective organizations.

 

We have trained Fortune 500 companies and national nonprofits in the skills of having “courageous conversations.” With a life-affirming approach based in neuroscience, we offer ways to embrace all of ourselves and each other by managing key evolutionary and socially-based traps, as well as by leveraging the saving graces of what it means to be human. Come see our common humanity, observe and experiment with different approaches, share and support each other, and increase our ability to build a more emotionally intelligent, supportive and effective organization and society.
