Wellbeing Reimagined: Beyond Broccoli and Burpees to What Matters Most

Employees of all generations are seeking workplaces that prioritize their wellbeing, with Millennials and GenZ particularly valuing this attribute. However, in today's fast-paced world, it’s difficult for most of us to prioritize our own wellbeing much less be change agents for the wellbeing of the people we lead.

Being stressed out, zoomed out, and burned out seems to be the norm these days, and it’s affecting our ability to lead effectively. The higher we advance in leadership and responsibility for others, the more we sacrifice ourselves for the betterment of those in our care. What's at the root of wellbeing that no one is talking about, and how can we begin to prioritize our own wellbeing so we lead by example in both words and actions?

What Matters Most Now? Reflect, Reframe, Recalibrate

The past few years have served as a catalyst for many of us to pause and reflect, to reinvent and reimagine, and to show up more intentionally in our lives and in our work. In the midst of continued change, it's never been more important for us to reconnect to what matters most, both personally and professionally. We can start doing that by accessing the power of curiosity within ourselves and with each other to create an inspired, aligned, and compelling future.

Powerful questions ignite insight and help us gain clarity about what could be, so we don't feel so stuck in what is or what has been. Tapping into the combination of curiosity and clarity gives us the confidence and courage to unleash purpose, passion, and potential in ourselves and in the people we lead and serve. Now, more than ever before, we need that kind of fresh perspective and motivation, so we can have more impact and influence through our work.

Unmute Yourself: Unleash Your Clarity, Confidence, and Courage to Amplify Your Career

Do you ever silence yourself or hold yourself back at work or in the world? Do you let self-doubt and insecurity disqualify you and dictate what you do? You’re not the only one. A lot of us mute ourselves. We don’t speak up to ask for the opportunities we want or the support we need. We don’t express our thoughts, needs, or aspirations. It’s like we’re living our lives on mute, and it’s costing us a lot more than we realize.

What if it didn’t have to be that way? By tapping into the power of curiosity, we can find the clarity we need to get unstuck and move forward in our lives and at work with greater confidence and courage. The result? More fulfillment, impact, and alignment personally and professionally and a brave, bold UNMUTED life that makes us feel energized, inspired, and alive.

Everyone in attendance will…

  • Identify how self-silencing is holding them back at work Discover specific strategies and prompts to help them illuminate their strengths and contributions, so they can be more empowered, confident contributors who have greater impact and influence

  • Advocate for themselves, so they feel more motivated and empowered to create a career that engages them by making the most of their unique talents

  • Identify one of the top four regrets people have in their lives and take one step to overcome it and unmute themselves

Core themes in this session: courage, confidence, resilience, self-advocacy, strengths, leadership, employee engagement
