Consulting & Training

Are you wanting to create a more effective team? Do you find yourself spending too much time on office drama or sorting through communication mix-ups?  Do you dream of being a part of a team that you can trust? I help organizations build high performing teams through consulting and training services. Here are some examples of training that I have done for organizations.

  • Building High Performing Teams – An effective, cohesive, high performing team is often the primary reason for an organization’s success. Teamwork is difficult to achieve but is arguably the number one competitive advantage that impacts the outcomes of an organization.  This training focuses on learning the elements required to build a high performing team. The training consists of five sections including: building trust; engaging in healthy conflict; achieving commitments; embracing accountability; and attention to results. The training is based on the book, The Five Dysfunctions of a Team, written by Patrick Lencioni. Each section will include activities, role plays and group exercises to engage the group in the content. 

  • Critical Conversations – Effectively handling emotionally charged conversations can be some of the most challenging work we do. Whether they happen between staff and supervisor or between employees we tend to get stuck when we come up against delivering difficult news, responding to disagreements or even trying to get others to do something they don’t want to do. Some of us avoid these conversations in an attempt to keep the peace and others want to tackle the issue head on sometimes appearing aggressive and ineffective. This training focus’ on teaching specific steps to engage in critical conversations that make it safe to talk about almost anything. Participants will learn how to prepare for challenging situations and transform intense emotions into powerful dialogue.

  • Well- Being Matters – Building Resilience and Promoting Wellness – In this training we delve into the world of mental health, exploring the significance of building resilience and promoting wellness in our lives. We’ll discuss the complexity of mental health from an adaptive perspective, gaining insight into the intricacies of our nervous system. You’ll learn practical tools and knowledge to prioritize your mental health and foster a sense of well being that extends way beyond the training and into your daily lives.
  • Understanding our attachment styles – We all long for safe, secure relationships regardless of our background, our living situation, or our family of origin. Understanding our own attachment styles can positively impact and deepen all of our relationships. This training will explore how adult attachment theory relates to personal and work relationships. Participants will learn how to identify the four attachment styles as well as learn specific strategies in working with individuals with each attachment style to build solid, secure relationships at home and at work.

  • Ethics and Evidence Based Practices – Those of us in the helping profession got into this line of work because we care about helping people solve problems. This course provides an overview of understanding how the evidence is critical to engaging in ethical practice. Participants will receive a review of social work ethical principles; code of conduct; and standards of practice​. Participants will learn how to ask evidence –based questions and will learn specific practices for the effective treatment of children and adolescent mental health.
