The We before me way
What we do and why we do it
Our focus lies in helping leaders build their own communication and leadership skills to inspire the team to build the culture, to innovate, to solve issues, to inspire each other.
Our why is because most people spend about 30% of their professional years at work and it is commonplace to hear how unhappy they are doing it. The World Health Organization recently recognize workplace 'burn-out' as an occupational syndrome causing "feelings of energy depletion or exhaustion; increased mental distance from one's job, or feelings of negativism or cynicism related to one's job; and reduced professional efficacy." The effects are harmful to both the individual and to the organization.
Our approach is to work with leaders and team members to introduce tools that make time spent at work meaningful, productive, and, yes, fun. Whether you are in an entry level position or the founder of the company, your work and your attitude, impacts the team and the customers. Our workshops, coaching, and team meetings focus on tools like strength based coaching and job crafting to help leaders get the BEST out of employees rather than the MOST out of them and for team members to aspire to be the best FOR the team rather than the best ON the team.
