It's time to reconnect
Discover how to engage, inspire, and unite members of your organization while reducing burnout and discord. Laurie's RECONNECTING WORKSHOPS provide tools to instantly alter the way people view themselves and the world, resulting in more meaningful interactions, a brighter outlook and a more harmonious workplace dynamic.
Workshops
Reconnecting happens in three key areas:
1. PERSONAL CONNECTION: getting back in touch with a more playful and present you, and reestablishing your core values and goals.
2. PEER CONNECTION: developing more meaningful relationships with those in your sphere, and working toward better understanding and communication.
3. BROADER CONNECTION: feeling that you are part of something bigger than yourself, and nurturing a sense of unity with humanity and nature that you can carry with you daily.
Laurie gives easy-to-follow steps to strengthen these three areas through 45-minute lunch and learns, half-day or full-day workshops, and extended programs with built-in growth and accountability plans.
Contact Laurie today to find the right match for your organization.
