LESSON 1
Adopting an Interconnected and Healing Approach
We’ll cover fundamental concepts to our method, including approaching all interactions with a relational, interconnected perspective. From this position, your interactions are about creating the conditions for the best possible outcome to arise.
LESSON 2
Creating space between reaction and response
We’ll cover practices to increase your space between reaction and response so that you can encourage this practice in others. We will discuss somatic exercises and how to redirect patterns of attention.
LESSON 3
When does blame feel like a solution?
In a relational model of leadership, there is never just one thing that’s the problem. Everything is connected somehow, so this week we’ll learn how to get more traction by focusing on relationships between factors rather than isolating and blaming one issue.
LESSON 4
How can I encourage relaxed, collaborative, comfortable, and effective solutions?
Most solutions to problems are conceived of in a framework of right or wrong. 1 + 1 = 2. Anything other than 2 is wrong. People who answer 2 are right. But, human interaction and collaboration is much more complex and, the pressure to get something right often prevents us from feeling comfortable enough to truly be ourselves. In this type of environment, there is less trust and no room to mess up. We will conclude our class with examples of solutions that are based in compassion, inspire trust, and allow people to respond with their best and highest talents.
