Anxiety at work is at an all-time high. How do we lead ourselves well in this current workplace landscape? This workshop is built on concepts from Edwin Friedman’s groundbreaking work in, A Failure of Nerve. We focus on a practice of self-leadership that is uniquely impactful in reducing anxiety in ourselves and in the workplace. Differentiated Leadership orients towards strength, remains reliably connected even in conflict, rejects blame, and leads with a non-anxious presence. This workshop will focus on three key areas that make Differentiated Leaders stand out: Knowing Your Voice, Understanding Emotional Triangles, and Moving Forward.
