Intentional Culture: From the Inside Out

Experts have not always understood the impact of culture at work, but today we know that culture is ten times more important than compensation in determining whether employees will stay or leave. Most cultures are created accidentally based on assumptions, observations and stories and this leads to burnout, high turnover and decreases in performance. In today’s work environment, constant change is inevitable; therefore, people and teams must continually upgrade their inner operating systems (IOS) to accommodate. Change is inevitable with the integration of AI, hybrid work environments innovation being critical. We need to optimize and update our culture to optimize performance and ensure resilience. As changes are occurring it’s important that we’re intentional about the culture we want and acknowledge the parts of our culture we’d like to eliminate or improve.

The audience will:
- Learn an operational definition of culture
- Know how to recognize accidental vs intentional culture in your environment
- Understand what is necessary to transform culture from an individual, team and organizational perspective.
Identify the three most important responsibilities of every leader when it comes to intentionally designing and nurturing a thriving culture
Experience what it means to upgrade your inner operating system (IOS) to transform culture
 

Courageous Communication: The Inner Game

Traditional efforts to improve communication focus on models or strategies that, while valuable, overlook a major factor: the internal work that is necessary to improve the way we communicate with others. Developing an impactful communication style requires that we attend to important elements of our “inner operating system” (IOS), such as thoughts, feelings, values, mindset and decision-making models. The inner work is what’s necessary before the conversation happens and yet it has the most impact on how effective communication will be.

The audience will:
- Describe at least five communication traps humans fall into that undermine communication
- Identify their most pressing personal challenge when it comes to communication
- Understand how doing the inner work will influence their communication style
- Apply two simple but powerful tools for more courageous communication.
