As we navigate rapid changes in the modern world — from hybrid work cultures to pandemics, wars, and overwhelming stress and anxiety — it is critical for human-centered HR professionals, or “people leaders”, to become trauma-informed.
More than ever, people leaders need tools to manage their own stress, burnout, and mental health challenges while they support their teams and executives through similar obstacles.
In this dynamic workshop, Manuela Mischke-Reeds, Justin Milano, and Rebecca Crotts integrate didactic and interactive learning with guided somatic practices and meditations to help leaders become trauma-informed while also supporting their own healing process.
This workshop will offer tools to help you:
This workshop is geared toward executives, people leaders, and HR professionals who wish to better understand and navigate stress and trauma in the workplace.
